Not just a guy flick: In JPNA, women rule the roost with a will of their own
You'd think a guy flick like Jawani Phir Nahi Aani (JPNA) would have little room for female characters. But after watching JPNA, one has to admit it's the women (who play the various wives and love interests of the main protagonists) who drive the plot.
Don't believe me? In JPNA you have a gang of married men, played by Hamza Ali Abbasi, Vasay Chaudhry and Ahmed Ali Butt, escape the tyranny of their wives for a bachelor-style getaway in Bangkok. The lone single man in the mix, Sherry, played by Humayun Saeed, has arranged this little vacation before he too ties the knot.
So far so good -- but this makes you wonder why these guys were unhappy in the first place. What makes them crave independence so much? That's where the story gets interesting; each guy is married to a beautiful woman who always has an ace up her sleeve. Let’s meet them; decide for yourself who's the most striking character of the lot.
