There is something particularly powerful about one's first tryst with adulthood… a kind of rawness, a lack of experience, uncertainties of what lies ahead… a constant seeking in the dark for the moments where life is full of light.Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani is a cocktail of all these encounters and obsessions…A story of the exhilarating and terrifying journey of four characters as they navigate through their youth; from their carefree laughter as they set off on a holiday together in their colleges days, until their bittersweet tears as they watch the first of their bunch get married.It is a story that might make you happy and joyful or sad and nostalgic as you try to find the true meaning of life…just like the characters in the film.

Man on a solo journey
This film tells the story of a number of friends intertwined relationships. The principal ones being that of the so-called titular hero is is rather selfish (or single minded if you prefer) to do things his way and to see the world whilst the girl who comes to love him realises he will not stay with her following her first trip away from her parents. They separate, he to fulfil his dreams and she her vocation. Then several years later they various individuals re-unite for a wedding of one of them which results in unfulfilled dreams being recognised by all parties now standing at the crossroads of life and how matters unfold. One thing spoilt it for me in that being a non-Hindi speaker the lyrics for the film were not translated (which is unusual for Eros Release except some of their earlier ones like Dillagi (which I purchased in 1993)) as theses like the songs in the old American Musicals of the 1930s and 40s moved the 'action' forward and generally expounded or celebrated love and friendship although I could appreciate the dance routines.

In English. the title means: "This Youth is Crazy"
Naina Talwar (Deepika Padukone) is a shy and nerdy medical student. She studies constantly and always tops her classes, but she feels like an outcast due to her introvert nature. An encounter with an old classmate, Aditi Mehra (Kalki Koechlin), makes her realize that she wants more from life than high marks. Thus, she makes an impulsive decision to follow Aditi on a hiking trip into the Himalayas, up to Manali. During the hike, she renews her friendship with other former classmates, Kabir "Bunny" Thapar (Ranbir Kapoor) and Avinash "Avi" Yog (Aditya Roy Kapur). Bunny is a handsome charmer whose dream is to wander and discover the world. He does not plan to marry or settle down. He lives with his supporting father whom he loves very much, and his step-mother. During their trip, seeing Aditi's silent reactions to Avi's constant flirting with other girls, Bunny and Naina realize that she has a secret crush on Avi, but do not bring the matter to surface.In the course of the mountain trek, Bunny and Naina come closer to each other. Bunny teaches Naina to laugh, to play, and more importantly, to love. At the end of the trip, she is close to telling Bunny how she feels but is interrupted by Avi. He accidentally finds a letter accepting Bunny to graduate school in journalism, at Northwestern University in Chicago. Bunny explains that the trip is his last hometown adventure before he leaves. He is sad to leave his friends but happy to start a career that will lead to travelling, which he dreams of, and thus wanted to bring them along to Manali to give them a surprise. Naina realises that love and marriage have no part in Bunny's plans and remains silent about her feelings but is happy for him as he is following his passion.Eight years pass by and Naina finishes medical school and now works in a clinic while Bunny works as a videographer for a travel show on Fox Network and travels the world, as he had planned. It is shown that Bunny's father has passed away and due to his job in remote areas, he was not able to attend his last rites. Naina has moved ahead in life and is not waiting to meet Bunny, but they meet in Udaipur, for Aditi's lavish wedding to Taran (Kunaal Roy Kapur), an awkward but sweet engineer, who is rich as Avi and Bunny claim. At the wedding, Bunny and Avi renew their lost friendship.Naina and Bunny are strongly attracted to each other again. Both resist love – Bunny, because he is not able to figure out that he is in love with Naina and Naina, as she doesn't want to get her heart broken again. A day before the wedding, Bunny sees Naina with another man, Vikram (Rana Daggubati), who is the wedding photographer. He is Naina's friend, but Bunny assumes him to be her boyfriend, feels jealous and argues with him, finally sending him away. Bunny and Naina meet, argue, and reveal their feelings by a kiss. Yet neither of them is willing to give up a career to follow the other. It seems that their romance is over. Bunny also confronts Aditi on her past crush on Avi. She admits that she had feelings for Avi but says that she has gotten over him and is extremely happy with Taran. Bunny leaves for home on the night of Aditi's wedding and will leave for Paris three weeks later for his dream job as a travel show host. On New Year's Eve, as Naina sits alone at home along with her dog, someone knocks on her door and it's Bunny. He surprises her with a kiss. He has turned down his dream job to be with Naina and proposes to her, but Naina fears that he might regret his decision in the future. However, Bunny says that he is happy with Naina and wants to continue travelling but with her. He argues that somehow they can make a life together. Naina agrees. Bunny and Naina then get engaged and finally declare their love properly for one another. They have a conference call between Aditi and Avi. Avi is at his bar and Aditi is at the airport as a newlywed leaving for her honeymoon with Taran. The friends find out about Bunny and Naina and are overwhelmed. Aditi states that she always kind of knew about the sparks between them. They all wish each other a Happy New Year and the film ends with Bunny and Naina smiling and embracing each other.

Großes Gefühlskino aus dem Hause Johar - "Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani"
Zur Story: Naina (Deepika Padukone) war immer die Beste in der Schule, tugendhaft und wollte nur eins: Ärztin werden! Als sie durch Zufall Aditi (Kalki Koechlin) begegnet und von ihr erfährt, dass sie mit ihren Freunden einen Wandertrip in den Himalaya plant, entschließt sich Naina in letzter Minute, ebenfalls an diesem Trip teilzunehmen, da sie es leid ist, der Streber und Außenseiter zu sein. Auf ihrem Trip begegnet sie auch Kabir Thapar (Ranbir Kapoor), genannt "Bunny", mit dem sie ebenfalls zur Schule ging. Er ist das genaue Gegenteil, selbstbewusst, flirtet gerne mit den anderen Mädchen der Reisegruppe und träumt davon, die Welt zu sehen. Es dauert nicht lange, und Naina öffnet sich, verliert ihre Scheu und verliebt sich in Bunny. Doch bevor sie ihre Gefühle mitteilen kann erfährt sie, dass Bunny ein Stipendium für eine Journalistenschule in Chicago erhalten hat. Sie lässt ihn ziehen und es dauert 8 Jahre, bis die Freunde wieder zu Aditi's Hochzeit zusammentreffen....Was ab diesem Zeitpunkt geschieht, sollte sich jeder Fan am Besten selbst anschauen! "Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani" vereint die typischen Bollywoodelemente: ein wenig Herzschmerz, Freude am Leben, dann wieder tiefe Trauer und zwischendurch immer wieder erstklassige Musik. Es sind klassische Zutaten, es gibt keine Überraschungen, sondern einfach ein bißchen indisches "Wohlfühlkino". Die Geschichte insgesamt ist leider nicht wirklich innovativ, aber sie funktioniert über die knapp 160 Minuten Laufzeit. Es geht bei diesem Film nicht darum, das Rad neu zu erfinden oder eine Geschichte zu erzählen, die sich mit Hollywood messen könnte. "Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani" ist ein klassischer Bollywood-Liebesfilm aus dem Produktionshaus "Dharma Productions". Dessen Besitzer ist kein Geringerer als Karan Johar, Regisseur von "Kabhi Kushi Kabhie Gham" oder "Kuch Kuch Hota Hai". Dieses Mal ist er "nur" als ausführender Produzent tätig, trotzdem erklärt allein diese Tatsache, warum dies ein Bollywoodstreifen nach klassischem Strickmuster ist. Eine kleine Hommage an Karan Johar gibt es dann auch im Film: in einer Szene werden sowohl der Song "Desi Girl" aus "Dostana" angespielt (ebenfalls von Johar produziert), als auch "Suraj Hua Maddham", DEM Song aus "Kabhi Kushi Kabhie Gham".Allerdings ruht sich der Film nicht nur auf Songs aus alten Johar Filmen aus, es gibt auch einen Soundtrack, der es in sich hat: für mich persönlich ist allein "Batameez Dil" der Song 2013, eine schnelle Tanznummer mit absolutem Ohrwurmcharacter. Dazu gibt es noch den Holi-Song "Balam Pichkari" und die wunderschöne Ballade "Subhan Allah". Eine kleine Sensation gibt es in diesem Film auch dann schon am Anfang: für den Song "Ghagra" konnte keine Geringere als Madhuri Dixit als Item-Girl verpflichtet werden. Zuletzt hatte man die Bollywoodlegende vor 6 Jahren in "Aaja Nachle - Komm tanz mit mir!" sehen. Allein dafür lohnt der Film schon für eingefleischte Bollywoodfans.Zu den Rollen: die Hauptrollen wurden mit dem ehemaligen Bollywood-Traumpärchen Deepika Padukone und Ranbir Kapoor besetzt. Beide passen in ihre Rollen und harmonieren ähnlich gut wie im Film Bachna Ae Haseeno - Liebe auf Umwegen miteinander. Hinzu kommen Aditya Roy Kapoor, den deutsche Fans aus dem Film "Guzaarish" kennen dürften, sowie Kalki Koechlin, bekannt hierzulande für ihre Rolle in "Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara". Die Rollen sind durchweg gut besetzt, auch wenn ich es schade finde, dass die Rolle von Kalki Koechlin ein wenig flach ausgefallen ist. Wer sie aus anderen Rollen kennt, der weiß, dass sie zu mehr fähig ist und irgendwie geht ihr Talent in diesem Film ein wenig unter.Trotzdem ist "Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani" Bollywoodkino vom Allerfeinsten. Es kann gelacht werden, auch mal hemmungslos geweint und es liegt oft ein Zauber in der Luft, der nur in Bollywoodfilmen in dieser Form möglich ist. Wer hier Innovation erwartet, sollte sich nach etwas anderem umsehen, wie gesagt, dieser Film macht Spaß, gerade weil er keine neuen Wege geht. Es gibt ein bewährtes Rezept und es funktioniert. Die Hauptdarsteller harmonieren gut miteinander, die Musik macht gute Laune und ab und zu kann man einfach seufzend im Sessel zusammensinken vor lauter Romantik. Was will man mehr? Genau aus diesem Gründen gibt es von mir ganz subjektiv 5 Sterne für den Film. Ich kann ihn allen nur wärmstens ans Herz legen (auch wenn ich den deutschen Filmtitel wieder einmal sehr schlecht und kitschig gewählt finde!). Bachna Ae Haseeno - Liebe auf Umwegen
