A few questions cross your mind when you’re about to watch LIFE PARTNER…Haven’t I watched something like this in the past? Isn’t it getting repetitive? Haven’t I had enough of mindless potboilers?What’s Rumy Jaffery going to serve now? A rehash of what he’s made in the past? There’s so much negativity surrounding LIFE PARTNER, even though you don’t have a clue about its content/material. Even though you have no inkling what it has to offer.Also, the buzz is clearly missing.But, but, but… never judge a book by its cover.To answer the questions I raised at the very outset, let me say that LIFE PARTNER isn’t innovative or ground-breaking, but it’s interesting and entertaining.One may assume that it’s a nonsensical comedy, but it isn’t. Instead, it’s a ‘family film’.It gives you a sneak peak into the lives of two couples — one, who believes in love marriage and the other, who believes in arranged marriage.LIFE PARTNER also surprises you because Rumy Jaffery incorporates vignettes from real life.Most importantly, LIFE PARTNER entertains, makes you laugh [at even silly jokes] and keeps you hooked for most parts of the film. It’s only the climax that acts as a spoilsport.But more on that later!

It is a story about three friends, Karan (Fardeen Khan) for whom ‘Love marriage is the perfect bet’, Bhavesh (Tusshar Kapoor) who does not believe in the concept of ‘Dating’ and prefers an arranged set up and then there’s Jeet (Govinda) a divorce lawyer who believes in ‘No marriage’. Karan’s and Bhavesh’s lives turn upside down when they marry their respective partners, Sanjana (Genelia D’souza) and Prachi (Prachi Desai) and how they re-affirm their faith in the institution of marriage is what the rest of the film all about.

Rumy Jaffery shows ample improvement over his previous film. He has handled a number of scenes very well, especially the Tusshar - Prachi - Darshan Jariwala portions.Govinda and Tusshar Kapoor make the most childish of lines work simply because of their goofy comic timing. It’s nice to see Govinda in his witty element. Nowhere near his heydays, but he is still getting there. Watch him play around a with simple line - Tum Chup Raho, when he is convincing a woman to seek divorce. Fardeen’s funny as the hen pecked boyfriend, but tends to get too loud.Prachi Desai plays the progressive Indian bahu-straight out of her TV serial days. She also makes an attempt to go glam, but looks too conscious to pull off the satin lingerie. Genelia has an attractive screen presence. But needs serious work on her voice modulation and diction.

To sum up, LIFE PARTNER carries no buzz and also the baggage of zilch expectations. But this film springs a pleasant surprise. You leave the auditorium with a smile, not a smirk!
