Love Aaj Kal

Summary: It's about a couple who are deeply in love played by Deepika Padukone and Saif Ali Khan. Their characters, Meera and Jai struggle with the geographical distance that divides them and the story is also shown a parallel from an earlier time period as told by an older man who is reminded of his own situation with the current one.

Review: I like the Bollywood film styles of mixing languages and the music behind them, but this movie really wasn't that deep. I love the small little details such as an old custom/ritual of "poking" an individual on the shoulders being reciprocated and then the poking on the cheeks(Om Shonti Om) and the drinks of both males of the timelines being black coffee and black tea.

Further Question/Philosophy/Theme:

Power Rating (Out of 5) and Comments: 2 I liked the initial story, but it just couldn't captivate my attention for the entire 2 hours.

I couldn't find a subtitled version, but the cinematography should give you a good sense.
