Love Aaj Kal reviews+box office - Page 3

Anyone suprised? Imtiaz was always bad jwm (kareena was the only good part) and the one before that movie was okay the rest awful and boring. His music is the only bearable thing about his movies.

LAK2 taang karne laga hai

Why India forum members promote KRK so much - specially in review threads ?? 🤔

India forums review: 3/5

The first half is slow and baffling and like every other Imtiaz Ali movie, you will need the patience to make yourself stay invested in the story. Ali's typical take on dysfunctional relationships remains the same within this movie as well, showcasing the certain crisis his characters face and dwell onto.

Sara looks gorgeous on-screen, however, fails to deliver an impressive performance. On the other hand, Kartik seems to have done a pretty good job, balancing with the dual character performance. His timid behavior tracing back to the old love story is bang on, while his modern-day geeky-awkward, hopeless in love portrayal of love is also remarkable. It's refreshing to see him do something different from his usual comic characters, and safe to say that Imtiaz Ali got the best out of him.

However, what saves this sinking ship of chaotic love stories is the very handsome Randeep Hooda, who plays a similar character like Rishi Kapoor from the 2009 Love Aaj Kal, and well he did not disappoint. Newcomer Arushi also delivered a decent performance within the little screen time she played.

Bollywood Life- 1.5/5

What's hot
The first half, while not that good or wholly enjoyable, at least has more than a few telling moments. You may feel confused at some of the plot elements that unfold, but there's enough curiosity, too, to be vested enough to know what comes later. Furthermore, regardless where the film holds or dips, Kartik Aaryan is in top form, nailing both his roles (despite Raghu being so poorly defined), and proving to one and all (or at least those who haven't heard of his little known gem, Akaash Vani) that his talent lies far beyond than only excelling at comedy. Sara Ali Khan plays an admirable foil in a shower part to that of her hero even if she goes overboard in a few instances while Randeep Hooda is also effective in a supporting role to his younger costars. Technically, Love Aaj Kal has been shot quite will by Amit Roy and Aarti Bajaj edits it as well as she can, given the substandard content and lackluster direction she's saddled with

What's not
Imtiaz Ali tries doing a Sigmund Freud or Carl Jung on love and relationship, but all he ends up being is a paltry government-sanctioned student counselor, with an online degree, who's masquerading as a pseudo-psychologulist, without the first clue in the world of what he's taking about or getting at.

BL Verdict
Love Aaj Kal is destined to end Kartik Aaryan's golden run while also having Sara Ali Khan her first outright failure, beside continuing Imitiaz Ali's poor form. And yes, I am already predicting the film's fate because that's how bad it end up being, particularly the second half. I'm going with 1.5 out of 5
