Synopsis
Bollywood's much admired couple Kajol and Ajay Devgan are back to sparkle on screen in Ajay Devgan's Directorial Debut film U, Me Aur Hum। The first time 'Ajay' saw 'Pia', she served him drinks. She affected him more than the alcohol, and he found true love. He was a leading psychiatrist, but she messed up his mind. The first time 'Pia' saw 'Ajay', he had too much to drink. She watched him make a fool of himself, and was relieved when he passed out. She was a woman who followed her heart, but despite his claims of true love, she had made up her mind. Thus begins the story of Ajay (Ajay Devgan) and Pia (Kajol). A love story, that begins at sea on a cruise liner!! Produced & Directed by Ajay Devgan, this emotional love story stars Ajay Devgan and Kajol in the lead along with Divya Dutta, Sumeet Raghvan, Karan Khanna and Isha Sharvani. Written by Robin Bhatt, Sutanu Gupta and Akarsh Khurana, the film has dialogues by Ashwani Dheer, Music by Vishal Bharadwa j and Lyrics by Munna Dhiman. Contrary to recent tabloid reports, U, Me Aur Hum, is not based on The Notebook, a Hollywood film. U, Me Aur Hum is set for release on April 11, 2008.

Reviews Although initially Ajay finds it difficult to convince the girl whom he has just met that they are meant for each other, he gains access to her room on the ship and finds out all of her likes and dislikes. And just as Pia is about to give her nod, Ajay comes clean about his sneaky behaviour which upsets Pia and she decides to end things. However, six months later she finds her way back to Ajay and the two get married.


One day while returning from work Ajay finds Pia standing in the middle of the street completely hysterical as she is unable to find her home or remember his mobile number. Ajay who is a psychiatrist himself understand the symptoms and takes her to see his senior who determines that Pia is suffering from Alzheimer’s disease. And just as he is telling Ajay about the precautions and lack of treatment for Pia’s condition, they also discover that she is pregnant – another factor that will worsen her condition.


How they have kids, go through the trials in their marriage and come out stronger is what the rest of the film is all about.
In terms of acting Kajol has done a brilliant job bother as a young waitress and as a patient. Her ex-pressions and acting is top notch. Ajay Devgan on the other hand is a tad disappointing. His acting isn’t as consistent as you would expect from someone of his calibre. Divya Dutta, Isha Shravani... Mmm... nnn do a good job in their own roles.


As far as Ajay Devgan’s directorial debut is concerned, Ajay has come out on top. He has got the locations, shots and editing to the T. From costumes to dialogue delivery everything is in just the right proportion and conveys the message without sounding like a sermon.


Over all it’s a good attempt by Ajay Devgan – both the actor and the director!
