Amar Prem Ki Prem Kahaani

While it is admirable to watch an LGBTQ themed film, I felt there was scope for so much more. Casting two appealing actors who are so uncomfortable with being perceived as gay is so deeply unconvincing for the audience. It was after watching this film that I felt that perhaps casting queer characters (who are comfortable with their sexuality) would have made so much of a difference. The vibe between the two protagonists were those of two besties rather than lovers. The embrace, or kiss, if it was one at all, might have passed had it been a pantomime. Certainly not for a film. That the heterosexual kiss was more convincing than the embrace of the two queer men was an absolute shame. The comic elements in the script was what worked well. One moment that stood out for me was the grandmother being accepting of her grand-son-in-law knowing that he too is a child created by God. What we definitely need are films with actors who are comfortable embodying their characters.

Seeing mainstream actors dwelling into LGBTQ movies has left me awestruck and and without a single thought, I flipped to watch this film cheating to tbw list.

Pretty much no character is intriguing, even the protaganists are unwilling to prove their inspiration. Movie execution at any given point. Not a single issue of LGBTQ is addressed and the storyline is so cheesy and tacky, you could only wait for next scene to make more sense but rather the film takes reverse path only to hamper audience expectations. Good thing they released it in ott platforms, wonder it would even fare it well in here.

A Timeless Romance with Heartfelt Performances

"Amar Prem Ki Prem Kahani" is a captivating tale of eternal love that beautifully blends romance, drama, and emotional depth. From the very beginning, the film immerses the audience in a heartwarming yet bittersweet love story that transcends time and circumstances.

The direction shines as the film balances classic romantic tropes with fresh, emotionally charged storytelling. The cinematography captures the essence of love, with breathtaking visuals that perfectly complement the intense emotions of the characters.

"Amar Prem Ki Prem Kahani" is not just a love story but an exploration of the complexities of human relationships, making it relatable to audiences across generations. It's a must-watch for anyone who appreciates heartfelt storytelling and the timeless beauty of love.

I just watched a movie with high hopes, as there are only a few LGBTQ-themed movies in Bollywood. However, I found that the story was lacking in many ways. Two people met by chance at the airport and quickly fell for each other, which felt a bit unrealistic. The portrayal of a gay son and his acceptance by his family in Punjab happened too easily, with minimal drama. The movie included a lot of unnecessary family drama and failed to showcase the actual challenges of being gay in an Indian family. The actors' performances were not great, and it felt like they were just going through the motions without focusing on their characters. I would say it's worth watching once, but it could have been much better if the focus had been on the storyline.

As a bl watcher I never expected such a masterpiece to be released in India. I have seen a lot of bl's when I saw its trailer I liked it and thought it would be a nicely movie like okaish i never expected it to turn out to be ONE OF MY COMFORT MOVIE AND COUPLE . If I ever feel sad I am sure Amar Prem will make me smile again . I really feel like words are just not enough to praise this movie its just wow I am really speechless . Everything was infinity on 10 , And Aditya Seal (crush) is the cutest and sweetest just mind blowing . I seriously look forward to many more such movies and series (with this couple as well cuties) Just a suggestion please make a sequal for this and make it a series where they are just being cute , getting married , loving each other , having kids etc etc SO HAPPY.
