Ajab Gazabb Love Movie Reviews

The good thing about remaking a South Indian hit is that you get everything ready on a platter. Including an inkling of how the remake version might fare. AJAB GAZABB LOVE, directed by Sanjay Gadhvi, is no relative of AJAB PREM KI GHAZAB KAHANI [never mind a similar sounding title]. Instead, it's a remake of the Telugu film SEEMA TAPAKAI [2011], starring Allari Naresh. The Telugu version was a joyride, a thorough entertainer, with Allari Naresh's act

Sanjay Gadhvi banishes the ghost of KIDNAP, keeps the gear to cruise control mode, dropping it a bit from the high octane stunts from the DHOOM series to take you on a laugh-riot. This film is a joy-ride - clean fun with no puns, yet it tickles your funny bone. Who says entertainment always has to border on the obscene, violent and vulgar? The subject is love and the treatment is hatke. Rajveer (Jackky Bhagnani) is the son of a rich businessman

Entertainment is the reason people make and watch films. Of course the average film aficionado will counter with Citizen Kane and the repeated reference to the word ‘art’. But there's a reason the 100 crore club is gaining steam. When it comes to entertainment people learn to overlook all lot of other variables that maketh a good film. Ajab Gazabb Love is the perfect example of a film that entertains no holds barred. It’s slavish, it’s amateur at times

A fun-n-comic family film with no hint of vulgarity, skin show or double meaning dialogues. Hard to find, isn't it? However 'Ajab Gazabb Love' makes that possible, what with it turning out to be a 90s style affair when such films were made in dozens, especially after the success of 'Hum Aapke Hain Kaun'. 'Ajab Gazabb Love', though not quite designed as a laugh riot, does well in at least ensuring that you see what unfolds on screen

For most of the first half, Ajab Gazabb is a drab advert for DC's Avanti, a vehicle in the supercar category rubbing shoulders (strictly in the looks department) with the Lamborghinis of the world. It's finely worked into the plot with Dilip Chhabria's initials changed to an unimaginative Dream Car. There, I plugged it too. The set up around it is overly simplistic: super rich boy has a literal love-at-firstsight moment with a girl he spots across

This film is all about a bunch of people going bananas, yet, it doesn’t leave you in splits. But if you care for a few giggles, go watch it.

Review: Rich boy meets poor girl, their families oppose the match. This age old premise isn’t unfamiliar to the  Indian viewer,......

Director Sanjay Gadhvi, whose previous credits include the Dhoom films, doesn’t know it, but he’s essentially made a time-travel film. Watching Ajab Gazabb Love, a loose remake of Telugu hit Seema Tapakai, is like watching an utterly mediocre movie from the 1990s. We have a contrived boy-falls-in-love-with-girl-at-first-sight plot, a series of misunderstandings and, at times, forced ‘comedy’ accompanied by sound effects (just in case we didn’t know

Ajab Gazabb Love is best summed up by two apt Bollywood coinages: thakao (tiring) and pakao (boring). This love story, whose sole motive is to showcase its leading man Jackky Bhagnani and his ripped eight pack, is an arduous watch, stretched to an interminable two hours by a ridiculous plot and a hammy pack of actors. Ajab Gazabb Love hinges on a one-line idea: rich boy likes girl. But girl hates the rich. So rich boy acts poor to win over girl

After a brief introductory frame, we are right away drawn into the life of Rajveer Grewal (Jackky Bhagnani) whose life revolves and rotates only around cars until he meets Madhuri aka Maddy (Nidhi Subbaiah) on his way to his office cabin. While he is busy planning for his ‘Dream Car’(DC) launch, his mom is busy finding the Dream Bahu (DB) for her son! After some ‘Boom boom’ and wham-bam, Rajveer slips into the Gandhigiri mode to woo his lady love

Ajab Gazabb Love' is a movie that missed the bus to the 21st century. It's a crying shame since the plot is interesting enough (a rich guy tries to woo a girl by pretending he's poor) but Sanjay Gadhvi doesn't create enough dhoom (sorry, we couldn't resist). AGL ends up looking dated and is just about held together by good performances by an experienced supporting cast and a delightful cameo. Richie Rich aka Rajveer (Jackky Bhagnani) is a automobile whiz

Films where the hero assumes another identity to win over the girl, and that uphold traditional family values, are part of the contrived clichés club and no longer relevant.

Gadhvi’s attempt to please the family crowd doesn’t shine in the manner the audience and he would have hoped. The script doesn’t have anything too novel to offer and in addition to that the screenplay and lead pair aren’t as impressive as they ought to be when you’re trying to impress audiences with a film based essentially on a love story. Film trends are such that releases that can be enjoyed by the entire family are scarce and AGL may just be able to cash in on this scarcity. Don’t walk in with expectations of path breaking or flawless cinema and you may just not be too disappointed.

After giving us films like Dhoom and its sequel, Sanjay Gadhvi returns to the big screen after a gap of four years with a remake of Telugu comedy Seema Tapakai, which reportedly received positive reviews and got the cash registers rolling. So does Ajab Gazab Love succeed in doing the same? Rajveer Grewal (Jackky Bhagnani) is an ideal son of businessman Yashvardhan Grewal (Darshan Jariwala), a millionaire who owns an automobile empire

Rich brat falls for weird girl. Girl likes the poor, hates the rich. So what does rich brat do? Why, ask his diamond-dripping family to pretend that they are to poverty born. This is not just a single-sequence joke in ‘Ajab Gazabb Love’, which features Jakky Bhagnani as Rich Boy, Nidhi as Weird Girl, Jariwala as rich boy’s loving daddyji, Kher as mummyji, and assorted bit part players. This is the whole film. Which could conceivably have been funny, and maybe that’s how

There is never a time or a place for true love. It happens accidentally, in a heartbeat, in a single throbbing moment. That moment for the very rich, Rajveer Grewal (Jackky Bhagnani), an automobile modifier who has just completed his project - DC (Dream Car), occurs on the escalators of his office building where he sees the woman of his dreams. Then starts his chase for Madhuri Singh (Niddhi Subbaiah), the girl who would be his mother

It’s the season of clichés, here comes another farce in the burgeoning collection of tiresome rom-coms. Rajveer Grewal (Jackky Bhagnani), the hardworking son of automobile tycoon Yashwardhan Grewal (Darshan Jariwala), falls in love with sociology student Madhuri Singh Chauhan (Nidhi Subbaiah). Madhuri detests rich kids, the Grewals shift into a hut to play poor. For the twist in the tale, Madhuri is the over-protected sis of rich twins

Rich brat falls for weird girl. Girl likes the poor, hates the rich. So what does rich brat do? Why, ask his diamond-dripping family to pretend that they are to poverty born.

If you are having a boring weekend with nothing better to do and if ‘Ajab Gazabb Love’ is your only option, then only go for it.

Despite all the foreign locations glitter, this plays out like a flat, meandering TV comedy. What is the ‘ajab’, and where’s the ‘gazabb’?

I am convinced 'Ajab Gazabb Love' was just made so that Jackky Bhagnani could add another film to his filmography. The plot follows the most predictable trajectory possible, there's not even a feeble attempt at anything original and it hardly qualifies as a romantic comedy. Rajveer Grewal (Jackky Bhagnani), spoilt rich kid who has built a dream car very innovatively called DC, falls hook, line and sinker for dusky girl coming down the escalator

‘Ajab Gazabb Love’ is just a one-time watch. There’s nothing that’s out of the ordinary or utterly striking about either the acting or the direction or the storyline. But if you’re looking for some genuine laughs and many more forced ones, go watch ‘Ajab Gazabb Love’.
