Debutant director Arif Ali’s Lekar Hum Deewana Dil is a sweet film that borrows the elopement theory from evergreen 70s’-80s’ romances like Bobby, Love Story and Betaab. It even has shades of Arif’s older brother Imtiaz’s Jab We Met and Highway. But this has a mint-crisp feel with its .com lingo. The lack of melodrama, for most part of the movie, is also refreshing.

…has several wonderful moments and genuine sparks that stay with you. The film should appeal to its target audience — the youth.

Though the storyline of Lekar Hum Deewana Dil is clichéd, watching it over the weekend won’t hurt.
