The full trailer of Shah Rukh Khan and Anushka Sharma’s film, Jab Harry Met Sejal is finally here. And it appears to have given away most of its plot points in it, plus all the mini trailers that released before this one.
It’s the same old story. Boy meets girl but he doesn’t want to settle down. They go on a journey together, spend a lot of time with each other and phir kya hua, Senorita? No prize for guessing this one.
Don’t get us wrong. Shah Rukh Khan’s charm works, alright. As does Anushka Sharma’s funny (read: Gujju) accent. But we’ve seen this story play out more than enough times on the big screen.
I’ll admit, the punchlines in the first minute of the trailer will make you LOL. Which probably means the first half of the film will be very watchable. It’s the second half that, we hope, surprises us!
You can watch SRK-Anushka’s done-to-death meet-cute one more time here:
Jab Harry Met Sejal which is directed by Imtiaz Ali releases on 4 August.
