Akaash Vani

If not awesome, i will call this movie an almost successful attempt of pointing out the problems of small town lovers. Just to make things clear, a small town love is way different that what we know about growing up in cities. And the lovebirds there are more of love-fugitives. Coming back to the movie, it starts well with college romance with some kool dialogue sequences. Then we have the on-the-verge-of-growing-up decisions. And then we have the dramatic outcome of the decisions. and an OK ending after an expected climax. These points used to be enough for movies to be a blockbuster. But wait, who is talking about 70s here. Movie is just OK for people who understands and have been in love. But on the other hand, it can be a disaster to one who does not give it a thought. I will still give it an 8 for the story and some nice tunes. Alert, you may fall asleep several times if you are not that into love and all those stuffs. ;)

Such good potrayal of real social problem prevailing in our society. Life need to be celebrated not suffocated.

The movie is an excellent narration of the love between 2 people. Unlike other romantic movies released around the year of release this deals with the trials and tribulations of a love affair during modern times in the Indian context.

What really stands out in the movie is that the love between the 2 protagonists is no where demonstrated as sexual in any form. A refreshing change from the modern day Indian movies where people go about smooching at the flip of a hat.

What also stands out is the social message with a dose of practicality. All this keeping the Indian culture in mind makes it a must see for people who like watching a mature movie.

I would say the promotions are misleading though. If this would have been taken care of I am sure the movie would have done better commercially by attracting the right audience.

Unlike his first movie, Pyaar Ka Punchnama, Luv Ranjan, the director does not keep this movie as an all out comedy. That does not mean that the movie lacks wit and humor. Aakash Vani has it's moments of fun, however the audience should expect a mature drama when going to watch the movie.

The role of the two protagonists is very well played by Nushrat Bharucha and Kartik Tiwari. Given the right roles and opportunities these actors would be able to make a mark in the industry.

Luv Ranjan shows once again how a good director could turn a simple story into a wonderful narrative and yet maintain characters that one can relate to.

Good movie to watch for especially the teens who are in love that love never loses anything and also for parents who are against love.

When this (Akaash Vani) movie got released, I hadn't yet watched first movie of Luv Ranjan so I was actually unaware about the piece of art he makes. After the suggestion of one of my friend, I gave this a try even after noticing the IMDb rating of 6.3. But wait what? This movie came to me as a surprise. I can say that the movie may be was ahead of it's time because the whole movie was itself a poem. The circumstances which is not favourable to anyone is pointly and deeply have been shown in the movie.

Luv Ranjan is purely an artistic person and I hope he will keep making such movies.
