Dropped appropriately on February 14, Valentine's Day. Though every day would be a celebration of love.
Love Storiyaan is a celebration. No big stars or celebrities. But with something bigger - real people with their love stories; eventually triumphing against all odds. Like the TV series Modern Love, it's about relationships, love and human connections. But I found it more lovable and delightful.
6 episodes. 6 stories. Each one handled brilliantly by some of the finest directors - Hardik Mehta, Rahul Badwelkar, Vivek Soni, Shazia Iqbal, Akshay Indikar, Archana Phadke and Collin d'Cunha.
Very enjoyable, well formatted and constructed. With just the right amount of smiles and heart-warming stories. Each one could've been a full length feature film. But then the spontaneity and genuineness would get lost.
I love the way the individual characters are allowed to speak in the language they are comfortable in.
It's like a 'full course fine dining' of TV series. The dishes may be small but they are packed with flavours to satisfy the senses.
Each love story is special and different. If you have experienced a fair bit of life you will identify with the characters. And you will have a number of knowing smiles and nods as the characters navigate through the difficult waters of love.
The way some person enjoys the music of Elvis while another is a fan of The Doors, likewise everyone will have their favorites. My advice would be to just immerse yourself in the stories and not compare the different episodes.
There are moments in each episode that I will carry with me forever.
Special shoutout to the producers Karan Johar, Apoorva Mehta and Somen Mishra.
