I Hate Love Stories - A Review By Jaik M

It was Friday evening and I was looking forward to a Film that could be the ingredient for the Feel Good factor. So ‘I hate Love stories’ sounded like a Film to unwind after those hurried Weekdays. The film brought in the fresh feel for the evening through Imran and Sonam. Both together lifted the style quotient of the film. One could look out for the apparels from Flying Machine that was quite fashionable.

Well now for the story of the film Jay works for Director Veer and is quite frustrated about the routine Bollywood Romantic Flicks.  In comes Simran who dreams about bollywood love stories and craves for Mr.Right. She has found the Mr.Right (Raj) a childhood friend. The story moves forward off how Jay and Simran happen to work together and eventually have their values of what they believe tested which forms the rest off the story. The pun on Bollywood romantic flicks and making fun off Kuch Kuch hota hai and DDLJ were part off the interesting narrative. The supporting actors playing the characters of Veer , Jezzel and Shahrukh look alike pulled out decent performances.

 

The Chemistry between Imran and Sonam is what IHLS rests on. They have done a good job giving audience paisa vasool smile all the way. After the first few scenes the rest off the story is quite predictable. The Climax scenes in the Airport with the narration behind saying all heroes off Love films need to come to the airport added to the funny moments. Jay entering the theatre and shouting SIMRAN with everyone frowning at him back brought in enjoyable laughter in the theatre.

Overall IHLS is a movie to watch out if u want to enjoy your Popcorn coupled with Pepsi. The Music that lingered after the film will be ‘Jab Mila Tu’ and for the background score didn’t create a striking impact during emotional scenes.

It’s the much tested Bollywood Love story all the way with some freshness added to it.
