Stories like Lekaar Hum Deewana Dil did very well in the '80s but that's just about when these concepts had begun to fade out. The problem with this film is that it has released late by a couple of decades.
Dino (Armaan Jain) is a carefree guy who is great friends with Karishma (Deeksha Sheth) and since they like each other a lot or may be, love each other, the equation is not very clear. They decide to elope, as Karishma's family wants her to get married since they have a lucrative marriage offer for the young girl.
The two keep hopping from one city to another and then realise that life is not easy. When the two walk into a hotel to check in, Karishma tells Dino that she was not told by him to carry any money. Can you believe grown ups talking this language in today's day and age!
The adventure isn't over yet; they somehow manage to land in some dangerous territory where Naxals rule and not that they have a tough time there. Our hero is dancing with an item girl and entertaining everyone.
In difficult times, the two start arguing and fighting and see the worst side of each other and decide to part ways. The person who thought of such an absurd plot should take the blame for this debacle.
Armaan Jain is too young to face the camera and entertain the audience on the big screen and to hit the right chord, he should wait till he is offered the perfect script that suits his age. The female lead, Deeskha has a good screen presence but has little scope since the writing doesn't give her much potential to show any talent.
Music by AR Rahman is not as melodious and below average just like the film.
Director Arif Ali, the brother of Imtiaz Ali fails to entertain through this stale formula with appalling direction.
