Ae Dil Hai Mushkil is like revisiting Kuch Kuch Hota Hai with a 2016 twist — friendship and the chemistry that friends share beat love and eventually translate into that eternal love. Of course, this is 2016 and marriage isn’t the ultimate goal of love. There are also sequences that remind you of Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna and Kal Ho Na Ho. Johar has given major screen space to Ranbir and Anushka and they do not disappoint. It is amazing watching their friendly banter and the fun they have. Anushka, on the other hand is impressive with her new avatar as the woman who knows exactly what she wants from each of her relationships.Aishwarya as Saba is what you imagine Aishwarya to be — sexy, smart, independent and someone with a great sense of self-importance. Ae Dil Hai Mushkil offers little in terms of story and fails to get the audience empathise or feel for the characters and events in the movie.
