Aafat-e-Ishq

I saw the trailer and decided to watch it. Spoiler alert! The trailer has many spoilers. But it was still unpredictable and fun. Watch if you want a palette cleanser from the run of the mill bollywood films. The movie is quirky and fun. Not the hold your belly and laugh kind of comedy, nor a gory horror flick. In fact I don't know what catagory to put this film in, nor should you have to. Enjoy the visual treat of the picturization and the brilliant performance of Neha Sharma and Amit sial.

I found this movie slow and lacking logic... at the start. As the story unfolded and the layers laid and revealed, it sucked me and I could not stop watching.

When the climax is reached, it isn't exactly an unexpected plot twist... but rather it feels like the story unfolding as it should - further revelation of themes and the plot continuing to suck you in and preparing you for the denouement and resolution... after which you have that satisfied feeling you only get with great storytelling. There is also enough comedy to make the movie fun to watch without it becoming intrusive or forced. If the story isn't enough reason to watch the movie, it also includes beautiful animation sequences perfectly embedded into the story.

Set in a small town, the movie offers a novelty factor to it. The subject matter is unique. A suspenseful ending adds to the beauty. Great production designing and direction. All in all a good watch.

Interesting, refreshing watch, fun and enjoyable, how can anything with even a glimpse of Ila Arun and Amit Sial be anything less than good (it's 100 times better than hum do hamare do, not that it's any kind of benchmark, felt so as watched both on the same day)

Namit Das and Deepak Dobriyal have done some excellent work.

A Dark horror/romance movie? I would say it was an experiental movie created by the director which went well, really well. Neha did one of her best jobs in this movie.
