Love Guru

Ahhh.... I'm literally fed up with this

Why are people still watching this type of movies? Aren't everyone tired? Like same genre as always... Love and comedy, same culture same stories, same characters.

To be honest not worth the hype

As a young movie enthusiast I'm literally not a fan of these type of movies, just watched it on the hype and yes it was that thing again that I don't like.

We need to explore more genres, should make horror, mystery, action, climax and epic movies... Take "Deemak" as an example, I've watched that too, it didn't scared me and VFX was poor but it was a new step in another direction which is the biggest positive.

We are used to horror movies from Hollywood that's why it wasn't that scary but... A new and different approach which should be supported. I'll recommend everyone to give "Deemak" a watch not to watch but to support if you want to see different genre movies in Pakistan.

Average entertaining movie but typical copy paste story .and whole story was already been shown in trailer that really absurd .they must update this aspect I'm future films. Moreover there were no twists in movie .same profile storyline that is being obvious since start. Howoever this movie may be made with more twists.hamauyun saeed and mahira acting was good but with poor story their acting was overshadowed. Songs were good. Performance were good .but again story was obvious and obsolete .hamauyun saeed and mahira khan fitness and appearance was good but again weak story overshadowed their performances.

As a business owner and a lifelong admirer of cinema, I see films as more than just stories - they're a sacred art form. I respect cinema the way one respects their faith. It's where I find peace, escape, and inspiration. In the past year alone, I've watched over 200 films across cinemas and OTT platforms - Bollywood, Hollywood, Punjabi, and of course, Pakistani films. Whenever a director from my country - like Nadeem Baig or Nabeel Qureshi - brings a new film to the screen, I feel it's my responsibility to support it, both emotionally and financially.

That's why I went in with high hopes for Love Guru. The names involved gave every reason to expect something special: Directed by Nadeem Baig, produced by Humayun Saeed and team, starring Humayun Saeed and Mahira Khan - it had the ingredients for a blockbuster.

Sadly, the film failed to live up to that potential.

Let's give credit where it's due:

The actors did their jobs sincerely.

Cinematographer Suleman Razzaq delivered stunning visuals.

Direction was serviceable - but even a good director can't save a weak script.

The real issue lies in the writing.

Vasay Chaudhry's screenplay lacked depth, and the dialogues were forgettable. The core idea of the film was strong, but the execution failed to turn it into something memorable.

Another major disappointment was the music.

With such a massive budget, we expected originality - not recycled tracks. The remake of the iconic song "Aa" felt like a lazy choice. It lacked soul, and honestly, it felt disrespectful to the audience. If you have a big budget, why not give us something fresh?

My final thoughts: Love Guru is a missed opportunity. It had everything - budget, talent, visuals - but lacked the most important element: a strong, original heart.

👉 This is my honest review, and I do not recommend this film.

🎬 Rating: 4 out of 10

I will continue supporting Pakistani cinema with all my heart - but we must start respecting the audience's time, taste, and expectations.

For a Pakistani movie.. it was a very fun watch!!! After a long time I enjoyed a Pakistani movie with family !! No vulgarity or foul language or double meaning jokes. It wasn't a great mind blowing movie and agreed that story wasn't new however overall had great production value, editing, camerawork , locations !! Jokes were not stale and no over the top acting, songs weren't bad either.

We should all try and support Pakistani cinema. Definitely watchable and definitely recommended to watch with your family.. first half was very enjoyable and funny ... Second becomes a bit serious but still overall an entertaining movie!!

So the movie isnt really breaking any new grounds here. In fact its a mix of several troups so commonly seen in romcoms, especially ones from Pakistan.

The story is simple and predictable so I like it better than LONDON NAHI JAON GEE, but even here the pacing drags a bit.

The songs are few (thankfully), and above average. Aima's song and the Pashto wedding songs are sensational.

Humayun saeed never looked better and Ramsha looked stunning as well. With Mahira its about her presence and it feels like SHE WAS BEING FORCED TO NOT BE HERSELF. Almost as if she was suffocating under the direction.

There was less comedy here than humayun's previous movies which was a bummer frankly. The supporting cast did a better than average job too, it just gets TOO OVER THE TOP at times as if punjabis and Pakhtuns are caricatures which is typical really.

So go to the cinema and have a good time.
