Bollywood scriptwriter Abbas Tyrewala feels his debut directorial
venture *Jaane
Tu Ya Jaane Na*, which stars Aamir Khan's nephew Imran, will remind viewers
of their college days.

"I treated the film exactly as I remembered my college days," said Tyrewala.

"All the events are based on true incidents. Only the basic story is from
the realm of fantasy," he added. The film, being produced by Aamir Khan, is
set for a July 4 release.

"This film is for anyone who had a group of friends in college. You should
watch it to bring that craziness alive," Tyrewala said.

He added that the musical romantic comedy was a very character-driven film.
"You should come to watch this film for Jai Singh Rathore, the character
that Imran plays, and not Imran Khan," he stressed.

Asked how it felt working with Aamir as producer, he said: "Aamir told me at
the very outset not to think of it as the launch vehicle of his nephew
Imran. When your producer tells you that, everything becomes very easy."

About the film's music composed by A R Rahman, Tyrewala said its flavour
catered to 20-year-olds in Mumbai. "The music remains very true to the
script of the film."

The man who wrote the dialogues for hits like *Salaam Namastey, Main Hoon Na
* and *Munnabhai M BBS* said that he got into directing purely to overcome
the writer's block that he suffered.

"Writing can be a very lonely business... I could spend days sitting in
front of a computer screen... and nothing. Blank screen, blank mind," he
said.

And, therefore, he ventured into direction. But he says he still hasn't got
over it.

Asked what expectations he has from *Jaane Tu...*, Tyrewala said: "My hopes
are that more than making money for the producer, I want this movie to touch
people. People should love it."
