Szenenphoto aus Pyar, Ishq Aur Mohabbat, © Production Companylike ?Tridev?, ?100 Days? and ?Gupt? has fallen short of living upto his own ì
reputation in ?Pyar Ishq Aur Mohabbat?.
Although his idea of spinning a love story among a chosen ensemble of ì
characters was a novel one, what was actually lacking was a gripping script. ì
The tepid script that he has come up with makes his characters look and sound ì
stereotypical and with no freshness.
For instance, once again Sunil Shetty does the role of an over-possessive ì
lover (a la ?Dhadkan?) who thinks everything can be bought with money. He ì
even hires services of Gaurav (Arjun Rampal) to win and then break Isha?s ì
heart so that she would come running into his arms. How presumptuous!
Anyway, Sunil plays a brooding lover to the hilt and authentically maintains ì
the mien of a high-headed millionaire. But his role is miniscule, poorly ì
etched, and doesn?t call for much histrionics.
And as for Aftab Shivdasani, the guy is new, promising and needs better roles ì
to proves his credentials. However, he maintains his customary ease before ì
the camera and chips in for some funny moments, although nothing impressive.
Only Arjun Rampal cuts a dash with his warming presence and belies the saying ì
that ?Models have a wooden face?. His histrionics are pretty polished (thanks ì
to the diction classes he took while acting for Ashok Mehta?s ?Moksha) and ì
his acting skills average. Only he needs to shun off his self-consciousness ì
of being before a camera.
Coming to film?s centrifugal force, Kirti Reddy, well she should have better ì
stayed in south and tried her luck in films there. Moreover, her character is ì
not void of lose ends.
For instance, she is supposed to be attending her angioplasty classes, not ì
dancing away to glory and painting Scotland red with Gaurav.
One point where the film scores is its music by Rai?s old faithful Viju Shah. ì
Another highlight is brilliant cinematography by P.S. Vinod who seems to have ì
dexterously captures the shimmering glory of Alps. " (apunkachoice.com)
