LOVE AAJ KAL 2020

Post by MEDHAVINI »


Love #Aaj ~Kal 2020:

Film Review-

"Haan mei Galat......Galat hoga tu bhi......." 

This line of the famous song from Love Aaj Kal, says it all...Love is the most confusing word in the world, so  what's right for you might be different for me & might be totally different for someone else!! And definition of love has changed over decades like changes due to global warming!

Imtiaz Ali (the Director) has to be understood in the right direction! To feel the depth of this love, you gotta be in love or be torn apart by its madness to feel what Imtiaz Ali's trying to radiate. 

The film merges in the present scenario of love happening in 2020 with the split screen running parallel onto love of 1990. Two different tales set against different and tangential eras. Two groups of lovers facing different complications of the heart in two different cultural set-ups yet bound by the same deep rooted mixed emotions of the game of luck, called love

The performances of Zoe Chauhan (Sara Ali Khan), Leena (Arushi Sharma), Veer & Raghu (Kartik Aryan) and older Raghu (Randeep Hooda) , are all distinct but the couple of 2020 is a stellar!

The couple set in 2020 battles issues of options in love, options in profession and above all shortage of the pill of patience (lot of youngsters will be able to relate to this feeling of "too many options...I shouldn't care and move on feeling...") while the lovers of 1990 struggle to keep up with the changing demands of the society, their own soaring ambitions and cultural reservations. The film beautifully weaves in the stark differences of love BACK-THEN and love NOW.

It takes two to tango and the same way it takes a heart filled with love or loss to connect to this movie.....A lot has been written off, about this film but I still stand by the beauty of feelings beautifully mixed in to paint the screen with vibrant colors of   LOVE in Aaj yet shadowed by Kal.

The vivacious, young Zoe Chauhan (Sara Ali Khan) symbolizes modern   girl of 2020 with utmost sincerity and elan. She lives life on her own terms and conditions and cares a damn about who-says-what!!

Cut to the modern male protagonist, Veer (Kartik Aryan) who's restrained acting has not only got himself a strong hold on audience but has also got himself  labelled as  versatile at a very young age.

Audience at first glance, might feel, Veer's just a lovelorn following Zoe at every critical turning point but dig deep and the eyes find the confusing heart of the present youth backed by male chivalry guarding the moral roots.  Young Raghu (Kartik Aryan) on the other side of the coin of love is shy yet street smart and ends up taking the ladder of professional success to a different level, bordering around shallowness. Raghu transforms into sexy grey-haired, matured, robust man of today (Randeep Hooda), who convincingly tries to save Zoe from treading the same path of regret once taken by himself,  leading to an unfulfilled life.

Music of Pritam is an icing to the cake of Imtiaz Ali, making this love tale, so much more mushy.  Kartik and Sara have wonderfully breathed fresh air into their on-screen    characters. And Randeep reminds us of the old world charm.   All in all, the film is worth watching and not just being scrutinized and judged on others reviews.   So go fall in love aaj and get a dose of kal with musical  mush and fresh faces for  some refreshing moments with loved ones..go do it with a twist !
