While we miss Seher Aly, who lost her life to COVID in June, her last production is here for review.

Lighthearted, charming, and with a lot of emotion, Feels Like Ishq delves into the various hues of love and warmth and its impediments.  These six stories from directors Ruchir Arun, Tahira Kashyap Khurrana, Anand Tiwari, Danish Aslam, Jaydeep Sarkar and Sachin Kundalkar touch range from commitment phobia to first meetings and crushes, as the series sets out to explore amorous concepts of love at different stages of life.

While Tahira Kashyap’s Quaranteen-Crush depicts the despairs of school crushes, Ruchir Arun’s Save The Day(te) is the story of a wedding planner and a bridesmaid trying to find a missing bride who has panicked under parental pressure from the boy’s parents. In Danish Aslam and Sulagna Chatterjee’s story of She Loves Me, She Loves Me Not, a woman falls in love with her colleague but does not know if she should articulate her emotions and how. Then in Jaydeep Sarkar’s Ishq Mastana, two protesters fall in love, during a protest.

In Anand Tiwari’s Star Host, Rohit Saraf’s Aditya bumps into Simran Jehani’s Tara by accident, literally only to find out later that she is a guest at his home which he rents out to make some dosh to travel to northern lights. Opposites attract, as he loves natural surroundings, and she doesn’t want to go anywhere near it but then things happen.
