Raima Sen (Maya) plays a typical Indian housewife living in suburbs of New Delhi with husband, Arbaaz Khan (Vikram), and a daughter, Priya. Her life oscillates between her husband and household chorus, till the day she overhears her husband’s romantic conversation with another lady.
When poor Maya discovers her hubby’s extra marital affair, she feels broken, and realizes how bubbly and ambitious she used to be as an unmarried woman. She realizes how slowly, with the lapse of time, her husband has trodden on her confidence and self esteem by stopping her from singing and squashing all her dreams.
Going through the trauma of heartbreak, she gets friendly with her neighbor, Mrs. Mathur (Suhasini Mulay), who is looking for a tenant. Maya helps her find a tenant and calls this new entrant, Jai, “Monsoon Wedding” boy, Randeep Hooda, her fantasy man. Jai boosts her with positive energy, and she regains her confidence. Jai inspires her and she finally decides to pursue her dream of singing by joining a band.
Poor acting, unmelodious music, and unintentional funny scenes ruined an otherwise interesting concept of a timid woman regaining control in her life.
Raima Sen’s acting is absolutely lifeless. Arbaaz Khan as the husband is terrible. Randeep tries hard to display charm but his funny outfits get better attention. Audience is left wondering, ‘is he the same Hooda, who debuted as a hunk in “Monsoon Wedding”?’
Debutant director, Madhureeta Anand’s, “Mere Khwabon Mein Jo Aaye” is a terrible film and watching it in a multiplex is an ordeal in itself.
