InFilm to Watch: Daawat-e-Ishq (2014)

Daawat-e-Ishq (2014)


Gullu (Parineeti Chopra from “Ladies vs Ricky Bahl”) is a feisty shoe store clerk who can't find a suitable match in all her father's marriage pairings. The widower can't afford to pay a large dowry, which means Gullu is stuck with losers for suitors. After watching a news report, Gullu hatches a plan to pursue her dream to study in America while collectively getting revenge on every greedy, dowry-hungry family she's had to face in the past. Concerned that his daughter will be left alone in the world, Abdul agrees to pose as a wealthy businessman to lure a greedy husband for his daughter. Gullu will then use India's anti-dowry law to sue or blackmail the man who marries her. But what happens when the man they decide to go after doesn't want a dowry?

*This was a cute film. The main guy wasn't physically attractive to me at all, but his charisma still comes across well, and while the two NEVER KISS, it's a clean, fun movie. Lots of bright colors, decent dance numbers, and the food looked amazing. Some of the words didn't translate well, as in I could have used more explanation for certain phrases, but that was only a little distracting. Might watch again.*
