We use all the logic to explainthings and try to be in all the way composed, controlled and logical, but theAlmighty Love remains unexplained and defines its way as “No Reason Reasoning”, no matters how much literature has beenspend on it or how much we might have learned from our experiences or other’s stories.The time has got just another more realistic expression: The discovery of Lovein present context.
Love Aaj Kal
When his girlfriend asks: “Do you love me”, Jai, the protagonist of LoveAaj Kal, played by Saif Ali Khan,replies: “Love, who knows what that is?”So, are we? Do we really know what Love is and why we fall in? Let’s readsomething about a movie, which I am going to call The Best Romantic Movie seen by me ever till now. Not because, it’s emotional, not because it’smodern, not because it’s practical, but because its real, very very real. Youwill regret, as much you delay watching the same. Mind my words, I have neverused such praise, you can check back.

Words of mouth, disappointments ongetting All Booked Status after reaching Multiplexes (that too in Delhi, whereyou can’t find enough good hospital but Multiplexes always nearby); I was surethat Love Aaj Kal was going to bang,after all today’s stars Saif and Deepika were looking fantastic in allposters and there was no recent good movie since Dev D, I guess. Film Industry and even the movie goers should havegot a sigh of relief with this release, which is sure going to get a reasonableplace in all time good romantic movies. The special thing, I noticed was aglimpse of Jab We Met, in the song “Chor Bazari” and a little googling givenme the obvious connection, when got to know the name of writer/ director Imtiyaz Ali.
ImtiyazAli; it will be the next name after AnuragKashyap, I will be waiting for. His first movie was Socha Na Tha; A couple, who didn’t thought that they are made foreach other, the second one was Jab WeMet; discovering the commitment of love and now Love Aaj Kal.Perhaps heknows to pick the best and then get the best from them. The common link betweenall these movies was the crisp-n-short dialogues and use of bold modernlanguage mixed with traditional cultural hints still scattered between this All-New-Generation.He seems to be in process of silently creating an era like once Yash Chopracreated.
Thetwo lovely and meaningful dialogues from the movie were:
“It’s very hard to surprise someone aftertwo years.”
“Why its so that how many times, you mighthave said Bye, but it remained always a due; meeting for the last time.“
Performances:
Wecall it perfect, when we find everything matching and it was like the same. Wecouldn’t have imagined the success of movie with such refreshing music of Preetam, we couldn’t have imagined anyother smile brightening the screen than Deepika’s(really reminds me someone), Saif’sevolvement as a package, who could really take the whole movie as a Solo now witheven taking the part of younger version of Rishi Kapoor and the so beautifuland lovely new girl Giselle Monteiro (Harleen). It’s a real treat to have suchperformance on screen on friendship day.
