Missed opportunity

Funny how a woman can fall in love with another woman and still need a man to ensure she gets her happy ending. That's normal enough for Bollywood.(more)

Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga is an entertaining and progressive look at love and acceptance.

Writer-director Shelly Chopra Dhar and co-writer Gazal Dhaliwal (who previously wrote Irrfan's 'Qarib Qarib Singlle') manage to spark off some pretty interesting ideas of love. Yes, their film deals with sexuality and seeking acceptance from the older and more-conservative family members, but at the...(more)

Sonam, Anil Kapoor''s Film Is A Whiff Of Fresh Air With Daring Vision And Entertainment

Ek Ladki Ko Dekha... goads the audience to think differently without trying to deviate from its primary purpose, which is to deliver entertainment. It does the latter well enough and yet does not overly dilute its off-kilter vision. No mean feat that. (more)

Sonam Kapoor-starrer let down by flaccid writing

Anil Kapoor and Sonam Kapoor present an ode to acceptance

Ek Ladki Ko Dekhi Toh Aisa Laga concedes the unlikelihood of entertainment to change bigoted minds. When Sweety performs in Sahil's play, we see disgusted and intolerant audiences get up and leave. Yet I was struck by the image of an old man, sobbing as he leans on the empty bench in front of him, r...(more)

A warm ode to loving and living as we choose

The underrated Abhishek Duhan is impeccable as Sweety's brother. But the lasting memory from Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga is of Anil taking a scene that could have been maudlin, insufferable and loud, and turning it into a heart-wrenching passage of acceptance, self-realisation and personal growt...(more)
