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.
