#LoveAajKal is rejected... Dips on Day 2, falls flat on Day 3... Advantage #ValentinesDay [Day 1], else *3-day total* would be lower... Tough road ahead [weekdays]... Fri 12.40 cr, Sat 8.01 cr, Sun 8.10 cr. Total: 28.51 cr. #India biz. #LoveAajKal [2009] weekend: 27.86 cr. taran adarsh (@taran_adarsh) February 17, 2020
The new Imtiaz Ali film is based on the same concept of love in two different times just like the director's 2009 film of the same name starring Saif Ali Khan and Deepika Padukone. While he has been questioned for telling the same story in different films, the director maintains that the new film is different from his previous ventures and narrates a love story in today's time.

Love Aaj Kal received mixed reviews from film critics with most of them criticising the lead actors for their over acting. The writing and screenplay is also not exceptional and lacks Imtiaz Ali's brilliance.
While Love Aaj Kal is garnering negative reviews, one can only hope it does well in the coming times. Just like Tamasha, which opened to weak numbers and bad response, Sara Ali Khan and Kartik Aaryan's new film can be expected to make room for itself as a cult classic. However, there are very slim chances of that.
