Ishq Not a love story is a faithful remake of original.Its a nice thought provoking movie for this generation.The movie is thrilling captivating with moral policing. While coming to the CLIMAX, the climax is very realistic.Here Anu rejected Siddu not because he was not ‘man enough’ to stand up to Madhav on the day of their ordeal. She certainly didn’t reject him on account of his lack of ‘masculinity’ nor is she impressed greatly by his attempts to re-establish it in front of her. All she expected from him is not ‘masculinity’ or some heroic trait passed on generations down from our battle-scarred medieval ancestors. She needed only ’EMPATHY’ from Siddu and literally nothing else. Ishq is a socially committed visualisation of realistic new generation story that gives its slaps on the Cruxes of moral policing. Good performances: Teja sajja, Priya varrier and Ravindra Vijay. My rating: 6.5/10 It's a very UNDERRATED movie
