Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga

So lovely, so innocent, feelgood and fresh! Often homosexual stories are depressed in nature, but this one is exception, it has a joyful vibes. Kudos to the makers. Music is also pleasuring, especially the title song. I really love all the roles Sonam played on screen with her high-school girl like cuteness! Sonam's lover played by Regina Cassandra has a very limited appearances but she still could steal Sonam's thunder, such a lovely face she has!

The concept of movie is good Also an acting of stars are so good

Kudos to the director and the cast for doing this movie. I am hoping this will set the stage for future LGBT movies in Indian cinema. An important message well conveyed in a light hearted manner with a good mix of emotions and comedy. I am glad they made this about love and kept it classy. They introduced a sense of normalcy to this very taboo topic in India. Hopefully the hearts and minds of people will change after watching this very important movie. Juhi Chawla was a delight to watch and she added the much needed lightness and humor to a very heavy subject.

The title is based on a song of Anil Kapoor in 1942 a love story where he is besotted by the beautiful heroine. Ironically here his daughter Sonam feels that way towards another girl. Yes this movie is an attempt to deal with same gender love though in a perfunctory manner. A simple film which is quite entertaining.

EK LADKI KO DEKHA TO AISA LAGA REVIEW :-



"The Secret" this is what they told us in trailer, right? But it was quite easy for movie buffs to predict the Secret. As expected, the secret is exactly what we were thinking, its about true love crossing the barrier of gender. Ek Ladki Ko Dekha To Aisa Laga tries to showcase the Brave Script of taboo subject, but somewhere the Screenplay falters, if not fully. Nevertheless, it was a "Well Tried" by the entire team.

ELKDTAL is not a complete fictional story, it is a mirror image of some real incidents happened in our society. Although, it is presented with some filmy and dramtic elements, one can easily accept it. Problems appears in multiple fields like Acting, Screenplay, Execution, Direction etc. which doesn't let Strong script overcome. Sonam Kapoor portrays a sweet girl but that's not enough when some important scenes like tackling as brave a Girl and emotional flavoured moments arrives. Rajkumar Rao doesn't explore an actor in him Fully and that's unacceptable. Juhi Chawla goes unnoticed due to overacting, so does the supporting cast. Anil Kapoor remains the one only saving grace here. Music is a let down, moreover it's irritating where the screenplay is already faltered. Execution is Strictly average and the reason for that is filmy vision of Director. The script didn't really need any dramatic portion then why Director went through that path? The full focus should have remained on content other than Feature film ingredients, especially when you are attempting a Taboo breaking subject.

As a whole, Ek Ladki Ko Dekha To Aisa Laga is an Important film for the society but the problem is, it is not made for everyone. The appeal and impact is limited to some people only, unlike Padman which was a Universal Appealing Subject. It may bring change in some people's life who have undergone such torture, but the question is, apart from those sone people will an entire society accept it? Unfortunately, the answer could be No. Because our country is not ready to accept such things, at least for now. After some years we might see some changes and that time people might recall this Film. Ek Ladki Ko Dekha To Aisa Laga deserves the one time watch from you just because they have tried some different subject, otherwise it does not surpaas the Expectations after raising the bar with the strong Script.

RATING- 6/10*
