Love Aaj Kal is Imtiaz Ali's second film with the same name. The film, which also stars Randeep Hooda and Arushi Sharma, marks Sara and Kartik's first film together. Love Aaj Kal shows love stories of two different eras - the first is set in the late 1980s while the other one set in 2020.
Love Aaj Kal opened to decent reviews last week, In his review for NDTV, film critic Saibal Chatterjee gave the film three stars out of five and wrote: "Love Aaj Kal is an audacious, if flawed, ode to love as a quest for happiness and self-realization that often triggers conflicting emotions and unsettling impulses but never fails to enrich the soul... But no matter what, Love Aaj Kal is worth a watch because, like its protagonists, it isn't afraid of committing glorious mistakes."
