Hats off to Sharma for keeping her own even in the scenes that one should or would be giving their attention to either Khan or Kaif. She very much gives an otherwise heart-wrenching love story the push that it needs and, at the same time, brings that little spark that is necessary for it not to be over-emotional. Sharma’s performance as Akira is one that audiences will feel familiarity with due to her vivacious and one-of-the-lads antics which she has been known to play in previous films. Somehow one can’t imagine Kaif in an extravagant and lavish costume or item song��in this film��and neither does she wear intricate traditional attire more than 3-4 times throughout the movie. Her chemistry with Khan perhaps helps her along the way, as does her subdued and lovelorn character. Kaif, it has to be said, doesn’t fit the conventional white-saree-wearing image that Chopra heroines are associated with but she plays the part of the modern but traditional Meera very well. The ‘King of Romance’ tag has been given to him and ‘Jab Tak Hai Jaan’ helps him prove it all over again. There is not much one can say about an actor who expresses such emotions through his eyes that even the dialogues don’t do justice to. Khan, as expected, reinvents his romantic self as Samar.

The performances given��by all three of the films stars – Khan, Kaif and Sharma – are absolutely��appropriate to the storyline. Particularly in the London locations, Chopra has made sure that the portrayal is of a city which is rich in different cultures as well as weaving in the very Indian rooted mentalities of the protagonists. One can’t help but fall in love with the greenery and scenery of the London backdrop as well as the calmness signified by the Ladakh landscape. Chopra, when wearing the director’s hat, takes specific care of every little thing to totally absorb his audiences in the intermingling stories of the characters, and ‘Jab Tak Hai Jaan’ is no different. It’s packed with tear-jerking moments, songs to compliment the story and performances that only Chopra can take credit for. It has to be said that ‘Jab Tak Hai Jaan’ is very much a contemporary take on your typical Yash Chopra film. Akira is then��filled with the passion��to retrace Samar’s footsteps not only for her own documentary as a would-be reporter for the Discovery Channel but also due to a complicated��encounter which leaves her no choice but to bring Meera back to Samar’s life. Akira also comes to know of Samar’s ladylove, Meera Thapar, who he met whilst in London a decade ago and also of a sacrifice Meera made. Akira comes across Samar’s personal diary and discovers why he is not only unfearful of death but also how he ended up on his chosen career path. In a chance meeting, he comes across Akira Rai (Anushka Sharma) who is bubbly, daring and a zara hatke kind of girl.

The story of ‘Jab Tak Hai Jaan’ surrounds Samar Anand (Shah Rukh Khan) who is an Indian army officer. However, the ever-nagging question always remained��as to��whether ‘Jab Tak Hai Jaan’ would be the��perfect goodbye from the man who made so many people��rise and fall��in love as well as give Bollywood some of it’s best and most successful films to date.��Would ‘Jab Tak Hai Jaan’ really portray everything that Chopra stood for and would it also achieve the timeless love known by many of Chopra’s previous offerings? Would it be befitting in celebration of Chopra’s immense contribution to Indian cinema? SRK-Katrina in 'Jab Tak Hai Jaan' His untimely death not long after his 80th birthday meant that ‘Jab Tak Hai Jaan’ would be seen as his final farewell and also serve as a testament that his vision for romance, emotions and heartstring-tugging moments would never be seen again by this generation or next. Not only is this film the very last that one would see the unmatchable combination of Shah Rukh Khan and Chopra together, but it is also��coming as Chopra’s self-proclaimed finale before bowing out of direction.
