Alia (Manjari Fadnis) is the sole daughter of Peter Patrick from a middle-class family of Udaipur.  Being a girl child, subjected to lowly and menial jobs at home, and generally despised by everyone, her father gets her married, against her will, to loud-talking Kunwar Vikram Pratap Singh (Ashutosh Rana) from an aristocrat family. Jeena takes us on an arduous trip from Udaipur to Mumbai to New York and from one forgettable sequence to the other, all in the name of women empowerment and women’s rights. One gets the feeling at times that these are the only three cities in the world known to the film-makers.

Alia’s puppy love in college Alex (Himansh Kohli) shows barely any signs of sorrow or heartbreak when told by Alia of her impending betrothal to the prince. After marriage, her royal attendant Laxmi (Supriya Pathak) becomes her confidante, emboldening her and lending her the required resolve.  And when she finally walks out on Vikram, with a young daughter, she meets Aditya Kapoor (Arbaaz Khan), as NRI and as philanthropic as they come. Before Aditya, Alia comes into contact with Shauklat Ali Mirza ‘Karachiwaale’ (Prem Chopra), the shaayri-spouting editor-proprietor of a magazine.

With unintended funny moments galore,  JIKNH has almost all the flaws one can expect in a film —  overly long, slipshod direction, actors hamming their way through corny dialogues (khubsoorat ladkiyon ka dimaag nahi hota), defective continuity (Peter is shown throwing  a plateful of stuff across the room which disappears in the very next shot). Only two things can draw one to see such a film — excess money in your pocket and a surfeit of time at your disposal. Beyond that, there should be no conceivable reason for one to waste almost three hours of your precious time
