‘Tum Milo Toh Sahi’ emphasises the need for a perfect meeting of soul, mind and heart to sustain a relationship. Director Kabir Sadanand speaks through three sets of characters at different stages of their lives: Eccentric Nana Patekar and Parsi Dimple Kapadia, who are looking for pure love; Suniel Shetty and Vidya Malavade, who are facing mid-life crisis; and Rehan Khan and Anjana Sukhani, who are craving for meeting of hearts.Set in contemporary Mumbai, the film interweaves the lives of three couples who connect with each other. Although the story is simple and the film well executed but it lacks the passion and drive to make it a winner.
Dimple’s ‘Lucky Cafe’ plays pivotal role in the romance of the characters and their heartache. The little tea house is threatened to be swallowed by a bigger chain of coffee stores but dedicated customers rally around to save the heritage site from greedy multinationals and leading them is Nana Patekar, who starts falling for his Parsi neighbour. Nana and Dimple have delivered a stellar performance.
Suniel Shetty and Vidya Malvade play the modern day husband and wife plagued by issues pertaining to haphazard lifestyle, growing EMIs and a neglected child. Suniel and Vidya play their part well but their work is not outstanding.
The third couple Rehan and Anjana plays college lovebirds. Rehan has come to Mumbai for his mass communication course in a college and meets his love while studying. Their performances are the weakest in the film.
Sandesh Shandilya`s musical score is decent and Pushan Kripalani`s cinematography commendable but the screenplay looks static and dialogues are bad. Watch the film for Nana and Dimple!
