Why I have given this movie 10/10 is because of its romantic, melodious, lovely and cool music. The music of a life time, the music forever. Then comes Mahesh Bhatt. Mr.Mahesh Bhatt! you are my best director. Your description of relationships in life, your view of love is most agreeable. Yes readers, this is how he shows that when you love some thing, love it from the depth of your heart. There are relationships in his movies. Readers would say that relationships are there in every movie. Yes its true but watch the difference in Mahesh Bhatt's description and description of other film makers. If you have watched Aashiqui, watch the relationship between Rahul and his friend and then between Rahul and his mother. Are they not executed brilliantly?
Aashiqui is a musical romantic drama film directed by Mahesh Bhatt. The film stars Rahul Roy, Anu Aggarwal, Deepak Tijori, Late Reema Lagoo, Late Tom Alter, Mushtaq Khan and Avtar Gill.
Two strangers falls in love and decides to get married however they have to overcome the obstacles in the way.
We have seen many films on the similar platform and similar plot and with almost the similar execution and same is the case with this film. The execution, screenplay and the climax is predictable and apart from the melodious music nothing is that exciting in the film and only it's the soothing music which keeps the viewers engaged.
Acting is decent and one can easily guess the immaturity in the acting of Rahul Rai and this was mainly because it was his debut film. Anu Aggarwal was impressive but the most impressive of them all was Deepak Tijori, he played the character of friend of the lead hero perfectly and he was so accurate that while watching the film myself felt that I must also have such friend.
Screenplay was average and mostly predictable but the mesmerizing music on regular interval will keep you engaged. Climax of the film is predictable.
Overall a super predictable film with evergreen mesmerizing music.

The songs are evergreen for any Bollywood romance fan. The songs turn this movie from average to brilliant. Superb soulful music!!!
The upsides of being well-fed are so inimical to beholders of poetic flair what was not eaten for privileges unattached can be shown as digested to shine just for the liquor that goes by in the name of poetry unappraised for poets in the courtyard of courtesans ruling organisations of networks with iron hands of discards discarding every miniscule of cultivated culture personal miles apart from the next endeavor subsuming collaterals of empires as bigots of classisism on high seats of untenable risks buttressed by licenses of contraband unsustainable by laities with gifts of gabs. Jabs of attitude become rehabs of nurture dispensing nurture in installments of various bravado for ministers dithering as authority in the frolicking of eternal nappies by the rollicking spots of coloured frocks.
I love Bollywood romances, and I absolutely loved this! The songs are beautiful (especially Dheere dheere). What I found just as moving as the songs is the depiction of a fantastically pure, innocent and passionate romance between the couple. It's so beautiful in its earnestness and intensity (which the less romantic among us will find very silly) that it's almost haunting.
A sensitive but impetuous young man falls in love with a withdrawn and shy orphan girl. Their love comes across all sorts of obstacles and, of course, overcomes them all. There are good themes about women empowerment, valuing love and relationships, and good winning over evil.
What I found really attractive throughout the movie is the haunting, yearning, love-filled gaze the couple has for each other. There are several scenes where they just gaze into each others eyes with such longing and tenderness that anyone who has ever loved will feel their passion themselves. Anu Aggarwal has these beautiful eyes that communicate both the ecstasy and pain of her love, and Rahul Roy has a soft-hearted passion in his tone.
Yes, there are mannnnyyyy deux-ex-machinas. The tears are always rolling. The bad guys are really bad, and the good guys are really good. But the movie recognizes and even indulges in its silly passion. Towards the end there is a line spoken to one who doesn't understand, perhaps also spoken to those who have groaned and winced and rolled their eyes through the whole movie -- "Yeh tu nahi samjhega. Yeh love story hai. Aashiqui." (You won't understand -- it's a love story. It's passion). It's a fantasy, and for that it's really beautiful -- a fantasy where goodness and badness exist only in purity; where love is good, and good conquers all.
