Gori Tere Pyaar Mein is a coming of the age rom com meets Swades but in a good way. Punit Malhotra might give the impression in the first half that he is narrating another film on the lines of I Hate Luv Stories, but the second half though still a sweet rom com, takes a turn into the Swades side of helping a poor village.

The main story is about Sriram, who is a lazy useless lad. He comes back from America after studying and flirts with girls,parties etc. His parents troubled by him force him to get married. Unfourantley though he likes the girl he is marrying but she loves some one else, and she is too scared to tell her parents. Sriram could care less though he agrees to the marriage,but his wife to be forces him too remember his old love Dia. So on the day of the wedding he runs away to find Dia. She is a social worker, she is in a poor village in Gujurat, and she will only leave the village and go with Sriram if he helps her build a bridge. Does the bridge get built,does she leave with Sriram, and does Sriram change his lazy ways forms the main plot.

Acting wise both Imran khan and Kareena Kapoor give nice, commendable performances. They are the films life line. Other notable acts are of Sharddha Kapoor who is sweet and very cute in the film, and Anupam Kher who pulls off the village villain nicely. Punit Malhotra after IHLS comes with a more mature film especially in the second half. He did a good job, and handled the sweet rom com moments perfectly. The music by Vishal and Shekhar is also a big plus.

Overall though the films dips at times in the second half, and gets a bit boring at times there the films pluses still out due the minuses. This film will keep you entertained, laughing and you will have a smile on your face throughout the film. Watch if like rom coms, because this is a well made one 3.5/5*
