But Meghna Gulzar's movie Just Married is not about sex. It is about belief, trust, understanding and love between two people who have to share their lives together. Although the movie bears a resemblance to Reema Kagti's Honeymoon Travels Pvt. Ltd. that we saw a few weeks back, Meghna gives her own treatment to the story and its characters.
The film has Fardeen Khan and Esha Deol playing a couple (Abhay and Ritika) who are arranged married after just a sole meeting. Thereafter they go on a five-day honeymoon in Ooty. Knowing that they have to consummate their marriage, there is a natural nervousness on the part of Ritika. But Abhay is of understanding nature. He tries to make Ritika comfortable.
During their honeymoon, Abhay and Ritika meet a number of other couples: a happy, nagging couple married for 40 years (Kiron Kher and Satish Shah), a Muslim couple (Mukul Dev and Sadiya Siddiqui), a bold and passionate couple (Perizaad Zorabian and Bikram Saluja) and a young couple (Tarina Patel and Raj Zutshi).
After a gripping half an hour, the movie's story basically dabbles on little instances in the lives of Abhay-Ritika and other couples. There are tiffs and teasings, fallouts and making-ups, rendezvous and revelations.
The movie's climax is a little amateurish and filmy. The end is predictable.
?Just Married? is a sweet, mellow film that promises nothing more than some interesting vignettes from the lives of honeymooning couples. Behind the tiffs and arguments there is love blooming gradually. It only needs a moment of realization that comes at the movie's fag end when Ritika realizes that she loves her husband.
The movie rests on commendable performances by Fardeen Khan and Esha Deol in the lead roles. Fardeen portrays the myriad emotions of his character with conviction while Esha slips well into the role of a coy, shy and evasive wife.
Kiron Kher and Satish Shah stand out among the other couples in the film. Their performance is very natural. Perizaad Zorabian looks stunningly gorgeous and Bikram Saluja plays his part well. The other couples don't get ample footage.
Meghna's direction is more confident this time than her previous movie ?Filhaal?. Although the film becomes a tad slow in the middle, it picks up pace in the last half hour. The film's music by Pritam is just about okay. In a nutshell, ?Just Married? makes for a timepass watch.

Traditionally, the groomsmen have fun decorating the getaway car during the reception as a final surprise to the bride and groom. In the past, soap or shaving cream was used to write “Just Married" and the back window. Old shoes were tied to the back bumper because leather was thought to ward off evil spirits, and would keep the young couple safe. Sometimes tin cans were also tied to the back of the car, to make noise and call attention to the happy newlyweds.
Now, more couples are renting limousines and are aware that shaving cream might damage the paint and rental companies discourage tying anything to the car. There are many other alternatives now available that won’t harm the car in any way. Many online companies offer creatively printed banners such as “Together Forever", “Just Married", and “We’ve Tied the Knot" printed in white on clear static vinyl. Just peel and cling to the windows or auto body.
Flowers, both fresh and silk, are perhaps the most popular decorations. Silk flowers will endure the elements better as well as heat from the car. Flower garlands that are purchased from the craft store, are easily attached by tucking the ends under the car’s trunk lid.
Giant crepe paper streamer rolls (500 feet), may be purchased to decorate the chapel, reception hall and even the getaway car. Tie some streamers to the antenna, the side-view mirrors, the door handles, and make a big bow for the hood. Use the colors of the wedding and vary the lengths of the streamers. Matching balloons can be tied to the outside of the car or used to fill in the inside. The bride and groom will want to take lots of pictures of the “Just Married" car, as well as those who lovingly decorated it.
