(LGBTI) LoveStory,, but thoda slow & boring..!!
1 February 2019
Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga is primarily a simple love story.....!!

The story is about Sweety Chaudhury (Sonam Kapoor), who hails from an influential family in Moga, Punjab. Her father (Anil Kapoor) is a rich garment businessman. One day while on the run from her brother, she meets playwright Sahil Mirza (Rajkummar Rao). While Sahil instantly falls in love with her, Sweety has a secret of her own.

The basic premise is about two people, who meet, fall in love, face opposition from the family and society, but by the end, everything falls into place. Only this time, the lovebirds are of the same gender.

Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga has a fair amount of humour, a similar amount of emotions and a lot of entertainment.

It is a film about hope. Hope for a world where one is free to love, and to be loved by whoever they want. Whether you love a man or a woman, it doesn't matter, it shouldn't because love is...love. Let love be, set love free.

The whole initial sequence involving Rajkummar and Anil Kapoor is hilarious. The cute romance between Anil Kapoor and Juhi Chawla will instantly win your heart. Even after all these years, their chemistry is on point.

The editing is fine, the music is good too. The cinematography is beautiful as it is shot in real locations.

The movie wasn't just about same-sex relationships, it also delved into communalism and even about the freedom to choose your profession. Shelly Chopra Dhar has done a good job handling each subject delicately.

Indian audience is still immature for this type of movie. Movie base : Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex (LGBTI) LoveStory .
