Será que é Amor?

Only the Interview and Star Host episode were good . Other episodes were a let down.

Couldn't relate to it at all.

Overall 6/10 from my side 😏

It's one of a kind tc series which doesn't want to narrow the screenplay by binding itself to a story line with beginning and end. It's a great attempt at showing 6 stories that make us come across our love emotions to someone. They start and delve into some unexpected and unknown situations and then emotions justify everything else what transpires. If you want to see a show with no strings attached kinda feeling, go for it. When you will watch it, you will be able to recall each word of my review.

All 6 stories are regular run-of-the-mill but refreshing. None of them are wowing/mind-blowing, but you might find yourself wanting more in some cases. The acting was good for the most part, all six eps were very well shot too.

The characters fall under the "sweet/innocent" for the most part, and overall, you could say that these were six short "feel good" episodes. If that's your thing, totally check it out. Also check it out if you've been watching a lot of content from the same genre.

'Feels Like Ishq' is a run-of-the-mill anthology series featuring 6 stories centered around couples that explore love and relationships. While it is not a bad attempt, most of the stories fail to make any lasting impact.

1. Save the Da(y)te: Starring the talented duo of Radhika Madan and Amol Parashar, this story follows a chance encounter between a bridesmaid and a wedding organizer as all hell breaks loose at a ceremony. Nevertheless, poor writing and the lack of any genuine chemistry between the two leads makes it a boring watch.

2. Quaranteen Crush: Starring relative unknowns Kajol Chugh and Mihir Ahuja, this story follows a naive teenager as he crushes on his new neighbor and bonds over their love for music. A tender, joyous love story that is elevated by the theme of corona and quarantine, this ends up being the best of the lot.

3. Star Host: Centered aroud an inn owner who falls for his guest, this short stars a terrific Rohit Saraf alongside the sub-par Simraj Jehani. The romance however, seems very forced and inorganic and one cant really connect with this one.

4. She Loves Me, She Loves Me Not: The worst of the lot, this short talks about the love affair that develops between an ad executive and her new boss. Both the leads Sanjeetha Bhattacharya and Saba Azad lack authenticity and ooze pretentiousness in this damp squib of a tale.

5. Interview: Zayne Marie Khan and Neeraj Madhav put a smile on our faces with this earnest romantic short about a couple of job aspirants who fall in love during an interview that they have both applied for. Sparkling chemistry and tender humor makes this an enjoyable experience.

6. Ishq Mastana: A preachy, contrived story of a recently heartbroken youngster who tries to court an environmental activist, this one is a tedious watch. Both Tanya Maiktala and Skand Thakur put in shambolic performances that fail to stir you.

It is very difficult to create a connection with the audience with 30 minute shorts and even more so when it comes to romantic storylines. Nevertheless, due to the sincerity and feel of 'Interview' and 'Quaranteen Crush', this is a worthwhile experience.

Recommended-Quaranteen Crush & Interview. Skip the rest.

Feels Like Ishq, an anthology of six half-hour films, is a bit like this. Dealing with romantic love among millenials and even Gen Z, it is packed with the easy charm of youth - and largely upper-middle class - but that can also feel like its downside.

The opening film, Save The Da(y)te, written by Monisha Thyagarajan and directed by Ruchir Arun, is an embodiment of this sentiment. The film examines love and marriage, from the points of view of a dreamy, spunky - and let's not miss, wealthy - bridesmaid and BFF (Radhika Madan) and a wedding planner (Amol Parashar), who are on the lookout for a runaway bride. Do they offer new insights or big answers? Not really, you could say it is pleasant enough with sweet one-liners and identifiable moments.

Quaranteen Crush is set in the early days of the lockdown and is a teen romance. Maybe it is a cliche, but director Tahira Kashyap Khurrana and writer Gazal Dhaliwal have put the story in a Punjabi household, which seems the perfect setting for the hilarity this short offers. And the cleverest joke has to be the job of the smitten young boy's father. Under the circumstances, he is reduced to online selling of bras, something that women abandoned en masse during the lockdown.

Star Host and the last short Ishq Mastana have some similarities and try to bring some poignancy into the proceedings. The former, written by Saurabh George Swamy and directed by Anand Tiwari, looks at a young girl being forced to break free from a controlling relationship and dealing with 'mental health' issues, while the latter has two very different personalities, rich boy-environmental activist girl, being thrown together. Writer Shubhra Chatterjee and co-writer and director Jaydeep Sarkar Ishq Mastana tries to go grand with the 'politics' of mystic poet Kabir thrown in. This works to hold the movie together in a sweet way, but again, it is not really an eye-opener.

Neeraj Madhav and Zayn Marie Khan come together for Interview, a story about a high-aiming girl and a Malayali who is trying to find his ground in the job market in Mumbai. Aarti Rawal's script directed by Sachin Kundalkar probably goes against the grain of the anthology, being as much a touching story of hope and aspiration, woven in with the beginnings of a love story. And for this, it probably will appeal better to a more mature audience.

And proving that love of all kinds find space and opportunity today is scriptwriter Sulagna Chatterjee's She Loves Me, She Loves Me Not, directed by Danish Aslam. The story is told within the advertising world and perhaps offers one of the most relaxed views of a same-sex relationship that we have seen on our screen.

Feels Like Ishq definitely feels like it is made for a more youthful audience, though it tries within its limited space to also look at current issues, from environmental concerns and veganism, to mental issues and sexuality.
