    Even the spicy and spirited performances by Parineeti and Aditya fail to satiate one’s appetite for real drama. Even Sajid Wajid’s tasteful music goes to sheer waste. This could’ve been a real seven-course fiesta but the misguided vision and thanda drama reduce this feature film to side dish status. Nothing wrong in it technically. A side dish can be the perfect complement to a good meal. But it can never be a stomach full. No matter how much you stuff yourself with it.

  • Despite promises of a delectable cookout that could send our (visual) tastebuds into a tizzy, director-writer Habib Fazil’s recipe of love leaves us rather famished…

  • Parineeti Chopra, Aditya Roy Kapur’s film is so not delicious…

  • Despite honourable intentions, all Faisal has done with Daawat-e-Ishq is brought every paranoid chauvinist’s nightmares to life on celluloid.

  • Overcooked and unsatisfying smorgasbord…

    Daawat-e-Ishq with its fragrance will take you to seventies; however the spirit of the movie is youthful and contemporary. Garnished with Aditya and Parineeti’s impressive performance the movie can be summed up as a dish made up using an old recipe with a modern fusion.

  • Quite a masaledaar yummy movie that is a good one time watch but not so great that it would be the biggest blockbuster movie of the year. But Habib’s direction, and the spicy tale definitely deserves to be watched.
