Plot:
‘Is love enough?’ forms the crux of Ananya Panday and Lakshya starrer. Two budding engineers cross paths in a college in Hyderabad, and sparks instantly fly. However, life takes a drastic turn, leaving them tangled between self-discovery, career ambitions, and an accidental mistake that changes the fate of their love story forever. What was the mistake? Was it forgivable? Could things have been handled differently? Were the decisions taken impulsively? The answers to all these questions add soul to the story.
What works:
The fresh pairing, the direction, the colour palette used on screen, the styling, the attention to detail, and the subtleness, everything elevates the film beautifully. I loved the direction because every frame narrated a story alongside the actors. Interestingly, the flaw within the story becomes the hero of the film; you’ll understand that once you watch it. And if it’s a Karan Johar project, how can one not love the music? Every song deserves a place in your favorites’ playlist.
What doesn’t:
Ananya Panday’s character is shown to be very headstrong, but certain decisions made by her felt slightly impulsive. The character could have been written stronger. Also, the first half could have been trimmed a little.

Performances:
Ananya Panday has truly matured as an actor and has certainly silenced those who questioned her credibility. She makes sure the audience feels every emotion her character goes through.
Lakshya is the show-stealer. Every time he had a panic attack on screen, my heart raced faster and I struggled to breathe. There were scenes that could have easily gone overdramatic if not performed in the right proportion, but he handled them brilliantly. He doesn’t act only through his expressions; he acts with every cell in his body.
Final Verdict:
If your heart has ever bled in love, this one’s for you. As a woman, I understood Chandni, but my heart couldn't stop empathising with Aarav. Love certainly blurs your vision - from one hopeless romantic to another.
