Ishaqzaade (2012)
Haraamzaade nahin....Ishaaqzaade

Warning: Spoilers
Another spellbinding story comes from Habib Faisal....The first thing that should come into your mind after you watch Ishaqzaade is that, though a love story, it is more a story of Zoya, portrayed by Parineeti Chopra. The film portrays the real story of communal violence in India, and behind its veil, it shows the triumphs and sufferings of Zoya, as she is utilized by the society as a scapegoat, and ousted by her family on communal issues. The love it portrays turns out to be a present day perception of Laila-Majnu, but without the tag-line of 'timeless love'....Instead it carries the tag-line of 'the strength of love...."Ishaqzaade ki tarah pyaar kiyethe....Ishaqzaade ki tarah nibhayenge" is what should have come into the mind of Zoya, instead of what she actually said....Parineeti Chopra was outstanding....Arjun Kapoor acted well...but, more than his acting, he surely will win the hearts of many spinsters.....The most outstanding element of the whole film is how it is presented....Music and Editing plays a huge role in this presentation.....even the Production Design was top notch....in all, Ishaqzaade is the type of films that Bollywood should look forward to....catchy story, no melodrama, and a rustic yet urban presentation....
