In the age of South-Indian remakes, Senseless Action, Senseless Comedy, Senseless Story, Movies earing hundred cores yet doesn’t make sense of one single paisa in it. Here comes a movie that makes a little sense.  It not a movie to preach or teach, it’s a movie to show another side of the story that one never sees, or never wish to see. AkashVani is a story about a young couple Akash (Karthik Tiwari) a young charming lad from Chandigarh who is full of life, doesn’t bother about the social norms, lives life his own way, talks dirty but his heart is pure and Vani (Nushrat Bharucha) is a small town girl born and brought up in Dehradun, she is ambitious but she is bound to live according to the society norms, A girl next door who can easily fall in love but is scared too. Akash & Vani meet at St . Stephen College Delhi, where they both are set to spend three yrs. of college life, with the events that trails in these three years makes them fall madly in love with each other. When Vani decides to break the news of her relationship with Akash to her parents who are busy in their elder daughter’s wedding preparation, her elder sister apparently elopes at the time of her wedding, which breaks Vani’s parents to the core and to add to the agony their neighbor and relative keep taunting them. With all chaos around Vani’s decides not to tell her parents about her love and get married to the bride of their choice trying to bring back smile on their face, but not thinking  what Akash would go through , the story doesn’t ends here, it rather starts here . Does all the sacrifice made for the parents are worth?? Or being selfish like Vani’s elder sister is the correct decision. Akash played by Karthik Tiwari does justice to the character but doesn't makes it comes alive. Vani played by Nushrat Bharucha is loveable but still needs depth in emoting. This type Story you must have heard and seen before, but the point this story elaborate is something new. It is said that Action speaks louder than words and Luv Rajan has done justice to this sentence. There are scenes where no dialog's are spoken yet the emotions reach easily ,but then at times some scene are to stretch which makes the audience loose interest. There is special care taken by the Cinematographer to create romance in each frame and has definitely done a wonderful job.  The song and the music really dint gets my attention. The match cut transition between two scenes are well thought of, editing is smooth, but then Two and half hours is a bit lengthy for this story.

In Short
“AkashVani Ek hi baar hoti hai, don’t miss if you are romantic”
