Have you noticed? Every once in a while a love story comes along to break the clutter of action and comedy films. In the late 1990s when Amitabh Bachchan, Dharmendra, followed by Sanjay Dutt and Sunny Deol were creating havoc on screen with their bloodshot jibes at vendetta, Mahesh Bhatt’s Aashiqui, Sooraj Barjatya’s Maine Pyar Kiya and Mansoor Ali Khan’s Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak came along to soothe frayed nerves.
Luv Ranjan’s Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar gives off the same assuaging vibes. It comes after a torrent of action, comedy and drama. Its USP is its strategic advantage. It is a one-of-its-kind romcom, sassy and saucy, not seen in recent times.
