Review
Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan is not a fast-paced film. It takes its time to show the love story of two simple people who are dealing with their past and finding new hope in each other. The movie is more about feelings than action. The direction and cinematography make the movie look very pretty. The background music adds depth to emotional scenes.
The film may feel slow for some people, but if you enjoy love stories with emotions and soft moments, then this one is worth watching.
Story
The story is about Rehaan, a quiet man who has lost faith in love, and Zoya, a lively girl with a painful past. They meet unexpectedly, and their bond grows through letters, poetry, and late-night talks. The name Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan itself comes from their first meeting, where their eyes speak more than words.
There are twists in the story, especially when Zoya’s truth comes out. But the film stays emotional and never becomes too dramatic. The ending is not what you expect, and that is what makes it special.
The story reminds us of classic love tales with modern emotions. Just like The Bhootnii brought something different, this film brings freshness to the romantic genre.
Acting
The lead actors have done a great job. The actor who plays Rehaan expresses deep emotions with just his eyes, which fits the title perfectly. The actress playing Zoya brings energy and warmth to the screen.
Their chemistry is natural and believable. Supporting actors have small roles but play them well. Some characters could have been explored more, but the main pair covers it with strong performances.
You can feel the same kind of emotional impact as seen in movies like Romeo S3 and Police Day.
Direction
The director of Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan has taken a very soft and poetic approach. The film does not try to be loud. It moves slowly and gives space for the audience to feel the characters' pain and joy.
The director knows how to show love without using too many words. Every shot looks like a painting. Like in Costao, where the mood was dark, here the mood is gentle and dreamy.
Critical Response
Most critics have appreciated the film’s visuals and performances. Some have called it “too slow,” but others loved the mature way the romance is shown. Critics who prefer loud drama or comedy may not like this movie, but fans of romantic films have given it positive feedback.
Several movie lovers on social media also compared it to soft emotional dramas like Stolen and Uppu Kappurambu.
Plus Points
- Excellent performances by the lead actors
- Beautiful cinematography
- Heart-touching music
- Emotional and deep storytelling
- Real and soft romance
Minus Points
- Slow pace may not work for everyone
- Some characters could be better written
- Predictable in a few scenes
- No comic relief in between emotional parts
Technical Department
The film is technically strong. The cinematography is the best part, showing beautiful visuals of small towns, rainy days, and soft lights. Editing is smooth, though some parts could be trimmed to make the movie shorter.
The background score plays a big role in this film. It lifts scenes and brings emotions even without words. Like in Maa (2025), the emotional scenes here also connect well because of the technical support.
Music Review
The music album of Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan is one of the highlights. The songs are slow, romantic, and full of meaning. The title track is already trending and loved by music fans.
There are 4 songs in total, and each one adds something to the story. The lyrics are simple but deep. Singers have given soulful performances. The background score also uses soft instruments that give the film a calm feel, like seen in Love Marriage (Tamil).
Verdict
Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan is a slow, emotional, and beautiful romantic drama. It is not made for people who want fast stories or action scenes. But if you like deep feelings, poetry, and pure romance, then this movie will stay in your heart.
The performances, direction, and music make it a memorable experience. We highly recommend this movie to fans of romantic dramas.
Our Rating: 4.1 out of 5
If you liked movies like Bhool Chuk Maaf or KaaliDhar Laapata, then this movie will also give you something unique.
