Last year, a movie (Janhit mein Jaari) was there with Nushrratt Bharuccha in it on the same lines of this movie. The story premise is quite similar thus concept might feel repetitive.
But this movie is up a notch just because it targets the core reason for people not wearing protection - that is Sex Education.
Its very predictable throughout but hey! Its not a suspense thriller anyway. Its a fun movie to watch with a social element.
You can ignore it if you are aware enough, but one with social stigmas about using protection should watch this just to get a hint at that its not a big deal.
Also to understand, what women go through just because men are not sensitive enough or just being ignorant about such an important aspect of life.

Its a decent attempt at a very important aspect of our lives - Sex Ed and Protection
Partly Entertaining...!!!
A sensitive also bold stereotype topic handled well by Tejas Vijay who surprises us by adding Satish kaushik who charisma is effortless and easily steals the show ... Rakul preeth in another meaty role post successful performance in "DOCTOR G"...she does cute and expressive way carrying the film single handedly with some of the crispy performance by rajesh tailang and prachi Shah... Despite not being preachy early release of "JAN HITH MEIN JAARI" reminds well at places within a span of 6 months is a mild debacle for the flick.... Overall a good social msg whole heartedly presented by RSVP films falls flat as partly Entertaining.
Lady on a mission to solve women issues
This movie seeks to speak on behalf of women who suffer in silence with the discomfort of the side effects of the contraceptive pill when their husbands do not use a condom for whatever reasons. We have a young chemistry graduate ( Rakul Preet) residing in a small town Karnal in Haryana who likes to apply principles of chemistry in day to day life and takes up a job as the quality head of a condom manufacturing company for lack of a better choice. Since the job is likely to cause embarrassment to her family she hides this fact but not for long leading to friction with her husband ( Sumeet Vyas), with her family and the orthodox community of the town in general. She then starts a crusade to educate and instigate local women to pressurise their husbands to use condom and free them from the pain of the side effects of the pill. This is not as easy as it seems as the women discover. ( In a lighter vein, the movie may not go down too well with pill manufacturers).
Director Tejas Deoskar just about manages to give an average treatment to the plot keeping it a bit too simplistic. No in depth or incisive analysis of the subject at hand but just skimming the surface keeping in mind the sensibilities and the taboos involved besides considerations of the censors and the box office. The small town sensibilities are also not so convincingly shown. A female teacher waiting in a make shift arrangement in a field to teach sex education to school kids seems too far fetched. The reference to Kalpana Chawla doesn't seem to fit in. The acting of all is barely average and no complaints on that.
