Jaan-e-Mann will be enjoyed by a 4 year to a 104 year old - Preity Zinta
‘Jaan-E-Mann’ has been in the news right from day it started. The buzz just got bigger with coming together of two charismatic superstars - Salman & Akshay - who shared an extremely robust chemistry in the blockbuster 'Mujhse Shaadi Karogi'. Bollywood diva Preity Zinta just made the film much bigger.
Additionally it is being produced by Sajid Nadiadwala who has had a consistent strings of blockbusters starting with 'Waqt Hamara Hain', 'Jeet' , 'Judwaa', 'Har Dil Jo Pyaar Kareega' and 'Mujhse Shaadi Karogi'.
At the Box–Office, the film already seems to be a winner, even before its release. How bullish is the film trade about 'Jaan-e-Mann' can be gauged from the fact it has broken all records for the distribution rights of the various territories.
That the film has got record breaking offers right under the nose of over-rated films that were tom-tommed at the beginning of the year speaks volumes on the confidence of the trade in the film.
'Jaan-e-Mann' is a 35 crore film and Sajid Nadiadwala invested the amount only in a 2 minute narration by Farah Khan at a party because he was so impressed & kicked by the idea.
The much awaited musical block-buster 'Jaan-E-Mann' is a romantic musical love story based in New York and has been showcased like a Broadway musical with the story told in an unusual manner by the very talented debutant director Shirish Kundar.
Says Sajid Nadiadwala, "People will be pleasantly surprised when they see Shirish's film. It is a visual delight, the emotions are right. It has a very unique method of story telling and it is a romantic musical which the audience prefers in the festival season."
'Jaan-E-Mann' has become such a hot proposition that Sajid Nadiadwala has got the best theaters and record breaking theater chain. In fact it's a record of sorts that the distributors have got 250 plus screen in the Mumbai territory alone.
It also proves the confidence level in the distribution fraternity regarding the quality entertainers from the Nadiadwala Grandsons banner. Even the eye grabbing trailer of 'Jaan-e-Mann' created quite an impact in the minds of the audience. The slick and innovative promo cost the producer a cool 40 lakh. Says Sajid "I didn't mind spending 40 lakh on the promo of 'Jaan-e-Mann', because Big things need Big money. A quality product has to be marketed well. That is my commitment and belief in the film!"
The music of 'Jaan-e-Mann' is already scorching the musical charts and has brought back melody in the fore, a welcome relief from the cacophony dished out lately. Anu Malik has given a musical score that flows into the narration of the script and are 'story songs' that takes the film forward. It's sure to be a benchmark in his career. Farah Khan, considered as the Sachin Tendulkar of choreography, has given her best and promises that the film would be a visual delight.
Shirish considers that Salman has given his best performance of his career. Also as per him Akshay Kumar has shown unimaginable depth in a difficult role while Preity is natural as ever.
The excitement factor of 'Jaan-e-Mann' is its innovative story telling technique and visual treatment backed by a very dependable banner known for churning out block-busters. Additionally superstars - Salman, Akshay and Preity - are riding high in the box office meter and the popularity that cuts across the multiplex audience, B & C centers and the Overseas market.
As Priety Zinta rightly puts it across "'Jaan-e-Mann' is a universal Entertainer. It will be enjoyed by a 4 year old to a 104 year old"
Perhaps with all the right ingredients, 'Jaan-e-Mann' might just become this Diwali/Idd record box office smash!

Preity and Salman's New York excursions
Preity Zinta acted as a tour guide to Salman Khan and the director and producer of the movie Jaaneman while shooting in New York.
Preity is one Bollywood actress who has literally been living out of suitcase. Although she has shot her movies in many foreign locations (Australia, UK) but she has shot the most in New York. Karan Johar’s film Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna was her last project in the Big Apple before ‘Jaaneman’.
So while shooting the film in New York recently, Preity showed the movie’s main star Salman Khan around the city. There were also times when director Shirish Kunder and producer Sajid Nadiadwala accompanied the two.
So which places did they visit?
Because most of them had already seen major landmark sites in the city, Preity took Salman and others to lesser-known exotic places.
For instance, they went to Sylvia’s Soul Food eatery in Harlem, which is known for its chicken dishes.
Reports also suggest that Salman and Preity went to Fulton Fish Market, which is considered 170-year-old market in NY.
They also went for evening drives and window-shopping.
The shooting of ‘Jaaneman’ is complete. The film is set for release on the Diwali/Eid weekend.

Priety Zinta trips for ‘Jaanemann’
Whilst others may go in for Numerology to ensure the success of their films, for Preity it’s tad to simple & effective too. She jokes that whenever she has fallen down whilst shooting for a film; the film invariability turns out to be a Hit.
She was referring to the time when she fell during the shoot in central park for Jaan-e-maan. It took her 5 minutes to realize that choreographer Farah Khan had tripped her. Farah playfully teased her “Priety has fallen; the film will be a hit. Everyone joined in the chorus “The film is going to be a hit.”
If only superstition could define success….Weird are the ways of Bollywood.
