Imtiaz Ali’s Love Aaj Kal Makes You Ponder But Fell Short Says Allu Sirish

By News Helpline – 18th Feb 2020

Imtiaz Ali directorial Love Aaj Kal, starring Kartik Aaryan and Sara Ali Khan opened amidst a lot of expectations but movie just frizzled out. Actor Allu Sirish just took to his social media profile and wrote his take on the movie, stating the film makes you ponder, but fell short.

Allu Sirish just took to his social media profile and wrote three part tweet, which read, “Watched Love Aaj Kal. It fell short of what I expected from one of my fav directors - Imtiaz Ali. But, the master storyteller shows his brilliance occasionally and left something to ponder over after the film. For a lover of cinema like me, this is my take away”

“Zoe like many millennials wants a career, independence & open to date. But is afraid of attachment though she craves intimacy deep down. So her fix is to hear love stories with happy endings as an escape cos deep down she's idealistic but in reality her love life is messed up”

“So, I could empathise with her character. Raghu's dysfunctional love, his regret, how he felt on meeting his ex meeting her years later had me invested in the story. Well, this is my take on the movie I saw! :)”

This is first time a south actor has openly addressed a bollywood film on social media.

Allu Sirish is known for films like Gouravam, Srirasthu Subhamastu, 1971: Beyond Borders, Okka Kshanam and more. His last outing on silver screen was ABCD – American Born Confused Desi, a remake of the Malayalam film of the same name. The film bombed at the box-office.
