The story of [i]Jumanji[/i], first told in a 1981 children’s book and then in a 1995 film, has remarkable staying power for its very simple concept: What if the board game you get totally absorbed in [i]literally[/i] absorbed you?
Luckily, [i]Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle[/i] mostly pulls it off. A workmanlike comedy with some fun surprises hidden along the way, it’s a clever twist on the original that leaves that film intact, and a good-hearted coming-of-age story to boot, with a cast that commits wholeheartedly to its physical comedy.
[i]Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle,[/i] however, is not a remake or even reboot of its earlier cousins. The basic concept remains, but the story has been reimagined — a gutsy move when revisiting a story starring someone as beloved and missed as the late Robin Williams.

जिंदगी की राहों में रंजो गम के मेले हैं.
भीड़ है क़यामत की फिर भी हम अकेले हैं.
