Milenge Milenge (Hindi: मिलेंगे मिलेंगे, Urdu: ملیں گے ملیں گے, translation: We will meet, we will meet) is a delayed Bollywood film that released on 9 July 2010.[3] Inspired by the 2001 romantic comedy Serendipity,[4] the movie is directed by Satish Kaushik and stars Shahid Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor in their fifth film together after Imtiaz Ali's Jab We Met (2007).[5] Other members from the cast include Satish Shah, Aarti Chhabria, and Delnaaz Paul.

Cast

Production

In 2004, the cast began shooting in places like Delhi and Dubai, and later continued to shoot at Pathways World School.[6] They were also supposed to shoot in Thailand, but Kapoor asked for a delay to attend the premiere of Dil Maange More, thus avoiding the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami that destroyed the hotel that the cast and crew had been scheduled to stay in.[7] The movie was expected to hit screens on 23 December 2005, but due to some financial and casting problems, it failed to do so.[8][9] Salman Khan was signed on to do an important extended guest appearance for the film but opted out because of differences with the film's lead pair (Shahid Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor).[10]

After the lead pair broke up, sources indicated that they wouldn't come together to dub for the film. However, the director, Satish Kaushik questioned "...why should Shahid and Kareena have any problems dubbing it?"[11] Producer Boney Kapoor further noted that "...perhaps it was destined that the most romantic film featuring Shahid and Kareena would come after their relationship."[11] In December 2007, sources indicated that the film was scheduled to release the day after Valentine's Day (15 February 2008) but it was again delayed.[11] On 1 April 2008, the director announced that Shahid Kapoor had begun dubbing for the film whilst Kareena Kapoor would begin after she returned from her overseas trip.[5] In February 2009, it was reported that both the actors had finally completed dubbing for the movie.[12]

Critical reception

Upon release, Milenge Milenge received mostly negative reviews from critics. Rajeev Masand of CNN-IBN gave the film a rating of 1.5 out of 5 and described the film as "regressive, senseless, and packed with plot-holes the size of craters".[13] Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama rated it 2/5 and said, "Milenge Milenge has the charismatic lead pair, who are very popular with the youth, as its USP. But the problem is its dated look. Having taken a long time to reach the theatres, it will have to rely on a solid word of mouth to lure the audiences into cineplexes".[14] Mayank Shekhar of the Hindustan Times gave it 1/5 saying, "Years since, while the film’s main pair may not be friends anymore, have probably knocked each other off their Facebook pages, trashed old kissing pics, tucked away the sweet SMSes, they can’t quite disown a new release that celebrates them still. Well. Sucks. I guess!".[15] Gaurav Malani of India Times gave the film 2/5 and stated, "Watch it only if you are just interested to see Kareena Kapoor when the term size zero wasn’t coined. Else Milenge Milenge doesn’t score too much above zero".[16]

Box office

The film collected Rs. 7.5 crore in its opening weekend.[17]
