Jeena Dil Se

Sanjay Prajapati’s story offers nothing new for the viewers to take home except, perhaps, what they already know. Anuj Kumar and Kiran Sharma’s screenplay is dull and often goes nowhere. The drama, therefore, becomes boring, more so because the roles are played by actors who lack star value. Sanjay Prajapati’s dialogues are routine. Ruma Sharma does an average job. Lakshya Handa is ordinary. Mehak Jain is so-so. Kunal Chhabra passes muster. Yash Purohit is okay. Deeksha Suryawanshi is below average. Priyanka Modgill hardly impresses. Shivani Wazir barely passes muster. Abhishek Singh Rajput performs routinely. Muskaan Varshney lends average support. Teji Singh is not up to the mark. Kanchan Singh hardly leaves an impression. Kiara Diwan delivers a dull performance. Shradha Joshi is weak. Kriti Verma does nothing to stand out. Viraaj (Kushagra Singh) is dull.

One of the film’s most impressive achievements is the way it gives its sprawling cast of nearly 15 characters meaningful screen time — and every single performer rises to the occasion.

Parts of the screenplay feel predictable and the storytelling occasionally maintains the same emotional tone for a little too long.
