*To **Start with I have Noticed one thing That In all **Imtiaz Ali** Movies The main protagonist All always so Confused About their feelings and love!


I mean in**Jab we met **we saw confused **Karrena** about her feelings for **Shahid**, In **Socha Na Tha*****Abhay aand Ayesha*** about each other!


And now in **Love Aaj kal***Deepika and Saif* again confused about what exactly they are gettin into!


Maybe This is Imtiaz's**Forte** to present **"Confused Love"** to his audience Which he handles very well must say!


Now comin to***Love Aaj Kal! **


*The basic Plot - *


It starts with a couple who's **livin together **havin a Good time! But hey confused wether this is what a reltationship is! Infact a scene in it is soo cute where saif Ask Deepika**" To Tum meri Girl friend ho right!!?:D "** And Deepika in response ***Holds his hands! **


Ok so now Both Saif n Deepika have to move to different locations Due to**work commintements** n thier **ambitions**! So the the couple *splits* as according to them**Long distance relationship Doesnt work **! And act so cool after the break up as if nothings happened And they even have a break up party! But somewhere down the line both know that they are so ***addicted to each other ***That its not that easy! After the Split they are in constant touch with each other Via ***SMS n Emails ***!


Now there this Stranger played by **Risshi kapoor**, a **Sardar**, who comes to Saif and Narrates his story to Saif and how He fell in love with a girl so badly dat he coudlnt think of anyone else even bfore knowing her name Saif finds this Really***stupid***!


Ok in the **Flashback** the young **Rishi **is also played By **Saif** Who falls in love with this girl Called **Harleen**! And the girl who played Harleen in the movie is still a**Mystery **as her Name is not even **featured in the credits**! And shes been kept under wraps as a**marketting statergy** Maybe!


So now The movie is about how Saif and Deepika realise That still not over each other even after the split And also How saif understands what true Love is after listening to Rishi's story!


Now Coming to the **Other aspect** of the movie!


*1. Direction** - I dont know why the direction of the movie Is not as Good as it was in case **JMW or Socha Na tha** but it is not bad either!


Just **too much of expectations** guess! In the movie U dont feel as much u felt for Kareena when shes in Delima in **Jab we me**t but u dun feel for the charecter!


Howeva yea every couple will relate in some way or the other! But yea still Even Love aaj kal has its own **Flavour **of its own! And im not comparing the movie with **JWM** Coz its a different movie all together!


*2. Acting -** This is By far**Deepika's*****Best performance***! She's never looked So **beautiful**, So **natural **, So **Amazin** in short So dat says it all! I cant think of any1 playin the part Of **Mira** better than her!


Where as Saif is concerned He was very**good **But he was much better in such**Choclate boy **act In **Hum Tum**! Infact in the part where he plays The ***punjabi Sardar*** guy he doesnt seem that convincing I guess **some one else **should have played that part!


Even the girl Who played **Harleen** was amazin! And even **Risshi kapoor** in his biref appearance was **Addorable**! N yea the end has a **suprise package**:D!


*3. Music -** As every1 Knows**Pritam** has givin Such good Score, None of the songs are misplaced or jus for the sake of it in the movie! I personally loved the track **Ye duriyaan **!


*4. Editing -** This is the best part of the movie! The**Flashback** and **Presnt** are Running**Parallel** In the movie And the that what makes the movie ***interesting*** And adds up to the narration!


*5. Cinematography - **The movie is shot in the best locations of **delhi streets** and Even the **outdoor Locations** are really ***Good***!


******* Why should You watch this movie! ***************


-> If you are ina long distance relationship You will be definately **Relate wid **the movie!


-> If you havent seen a **Decent romantic Flick** in recent times This like the best movie u can watch wid u r **Loved one**!


-> If you Want to watch this **Light popkorn movie** This is definately u r flick!


-> If You are a **Deepika** fan trust me You will start**Lovin **her even more!:D


There's No reason Why u shuldnt give this flick a try! Its**worth a watch** atleast once for sure!


All I would want to say is **Love aaj kal** is out an out **entertaining flick** And really good but yea it **dissapoints** in sum aspects But yea Definately a good movie!
