Purani Jeans Audience Reviews

Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Lela The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
sanjuktagupta I came out of the theater with my mascara and eye make up staining my cheeks and yet with a smile. I had for the integral part of the film been transported to those days of college and camaraderie when masti, emotions and the bond of friendship were all on a super high. A big thumbs up to director Tanushri for delivering so beautifully and taking me back to a walk down memory lane. The romantic scenes with the first kiss, the fire flies and the sky lanterns did create a fairy tale moment that every princess in our heart would leap to capture. The melody of Dil Aaj Kal will linger in my humming like forever. I loved the movie and would definitely keep a DVD of the same in my collection to revisit some scenes that created magic for me.
Crazy Kiya Purani Jeans is an effervescent tale of youthful exuberance, coming of age and eternal friendships. The story about "friends forever", triggers nostalgia and fond memories of one's wonder years and evokes a sense of déjà-vu. In the quagmire of nonsensical no-brainers copied and rehashed shamelessly from Hollywood/Korea/Tollywood/(and even Bollywood!), Purani Jeans, a completely original script, comes as a breath of fresh air. The director, ad film maker Tanushri Chattrji Bassu, in her first foray into feature films, skilfully handles the eternal and forever fresh theme of first love, teen angst, volatile emotions & misunderstandings and, timeless friendships. Tanushri skillfully weaves the idea that, "real friendship, like an old pair of jeans, allows the wearer to become totally free", into the central plot of the film. The story, moving through the 90's into the present, revolves around a group of five school friends at Kasauli, led by maverick Sam and reticent Sid, who is the protagonist of the film. The group, who call themselves "Kasauli Cowboys", are a happy-go-lucky bunch, who drift apart when first love awakens. What creates the rifts and changes the dynamics of their friendships, the lessons they learn over time, and the new bonds that form, are the essence of Purani Jeans. The songs, composed by Ram Sampath, are melodious, memorable and hummable. Dil aajkal (by both KK and Sona), yaari yaari and ye dosti leave one with pleasant feelings. The scenic locations of Kasauli were beautifully captured on film. Sarika, in a Maharani Gayatri-esque complex role, and debutant Aditya Seal as Sam excel in their roles. Isabel Leite, as a Kashmiri girl, looks stunning. Tanuj Virwani as Sid, appears in his second film. Rati Agnihotri reminds one of thespian Pearl Padamsee. Rajit Kapoor in a cameo is excellent. Sadly, the film has not been publicised in smaller cities. It is a film set in a small town, and should have been well promoted. I got to see this film by chance at Raipur, where I didn't see any hoardings. Debutante director Tanushri Chattrji Bassu needs to tell more such original and thought- provoking stories. My best wishes to her. I strongly recommend Purani Jeans to all those who have tasted the bitter-sweet fruits of first love and yaari-dosti.
Fully Filmi Beautiful serenades, heart-rending nostalgia, reminiscences of youthful exuberance, twinges of sadness, touches of unspoken family turmoil, mixed with the eternal bonds of bittersweet love and friendship, served along with some adolescent fun & frolic - that is "Purani Jeans", a coming-of-age film written and directed by the young débutante, Tanushri Chattrji Bassu. The film revolves around deep bonds of friendship and love. The romantic drama, set in the 90's and 12 years later, reminds us of the youthful infatuations of our growing years. Old friends, who were a close knit group in their youth, calling themselves the "Kasauli Cowboys", meet once again after a gap of twelve years and relive their pangs of growing up. Tanuj Virwani as bashful Sid, the main character, plays his role well. Aditya Seal as Sam, Sid's best friend, is the epitome of youthful enthusiasm. He has a lot of talent and performs commendably. Isabel Leite as Nayantara, looks charming. The experienced Sarika and Rati Agnihotri have both acted flawlessly. The rest of the young "Kasauli Cowboys" all perform decently. Music director Ram Sampath has done an outstanding job. The melodious songs remind us of the golden era of Hindi film music. Excellent photography and locations have fittingly portrayed the picturesque beauty of the Himalayas. Despite the film being a wonderful walk through nostalgia, the film was not publicised well and thus did not earn the footfalls and eyeballs it deserved. This lack of publicity should not take any credit away from its new cast and the débutantes - director Tanushri Chattrji Bassu and producer Manju Lulla. All in all, "Purani Jeans" is a clean family film that definitely deserves a 'dekko' in its DVD release.
saad-zia1193 I enjoyed 'Purani Jeans' for its freshness in the face of familiarity, and a story that holds all the way to the end.Reminds us about our best friends and the misunderstandings.Denims and Dosti - Wear it, tear it. Colour it, fade it. Use it, abuse it - but it ain't easy giving up on it. Righto! That's the mantra of this famous five, who've outgrown their chaddi-buddy years (in small-town Kasauli) becoming young men who repeatedly swear by their 'denim decree' (Friends forever! Blah!).Anyone who has grown up with a gang of inseparables will instantly connect with these Kasauli Cowboys. The story is fantastic and songs are really good. That song "Dil Aaj Kal" is just fantastic. The acting was really good. the Hill station pictured was beautiful.
