Mujhse Fraaandship Karoge *Review* - Danish Lakdawala

Finally I'm back to one of the things that I love doing - Blogging! Have realized that you should do what you want to and not what others want you to do. :)
Saw this lovely movie called Mujhse Fraaandship Karoge. Heard a lot about this one. Let's get back on critical aspects of this movie.


Cast: Saqib Saleem, Saba Azad, Nishant Dahiya, Tara D'Souza
Runtime:- 106 minutes approx


Rating: 3/5


   Firstly, the new look of Yashraj films - Y-films is an eye catchy fresh feel for youthful films. Quiet impressed, I must say.
   This movie is best for those who are social networking addicts. It shows sweet teen romance in the times of broadband connection, social networking sites & fake IDs! The story line would definitely connect to people of ages between 15-30. It explores the pros and cons of the proposed 'fraaandship' networking in teens' lives.
Rahul Sareen (Nishant Dahiya) is a rockstar. Malvika Kelkar (Tara D’souza), an NIFT student, is hot and sexy. Vishal Bhatt (Saqib Saleem) and Preity Sen (Saba Azad), studying in the same college, have been asked to work together on the silver jubilee celebration party of their college. They can’t stand each other. It's kinda typical story but because of its fresh feel people instantly connect with the movie. 
Vishal is mad after Malvika but doesn’t have the courage to go up to her and tell her that he loves her. Likewise, Preity loves Rahul but can’t dream of telling him so. Preity and Malvika are roommates whereas Vishal and Rahul are buddies.  Although love stories with mistaken identities have been seen several times in the past, this one makes it different from the earlier ones because the fake identities are assumed on the social Internet platform of Facebook. Since today's youth is more inclined towards social networking sites. This movie would definitely appeal to them.
The chemistry between Saqib and Saba (Vishal and Preity) is a treat to watch. They stun you with their amazing performances. Malvika looked glamorous although she could have been given more dialogues and screen presence. Rahul on the other hand appeared like a supporting cast in the movie.
There were certain scenes which were hillarious scenes where Hacky(Prabal Punjabi) acts like Malvika and hits on Rahul and Vishal.
Screenplay could have been tighter, dialogues are well written. Considering Nupur Asthana as the debut director, she has done a neat job.
This movie would definitely be an above average on the box office - Thanks to its theme and word of mouth which is expected to help MFK to earn profits.
Do watch it once !
Signing off for now.. will talk about Ra.One soon! Cheers!
