A Different View
But not everyone is singing praises. Some movie watchers felt let down. One reviewer, Sumit Kadel, had high hopes. However, he wrote the trailer “falls short.” He felt it lacked the “emotional depth” a romantic film needs. He also called the story “disjointed and lacks soul.” Kadel even guessed a modest opening at the box office.
There were fair expectations from the trailer of #AankhonKiGustaakhiyan, but it falls short in delivering the emotional depth essential for a romantic film.
The narrative in the trailer is disjointed and lacks soul, film should open in the range of ₹80 Lakh – 1.5 crore nett.… pic.twitter.com/neIyUJyzpD

Another person, Dipti Malhotra, made a sharp comment. She joked, “I thought Vikrant Massey had announced retirement.” She then called the trailer “Faaltu Baaton ki Gustaakhiyan,” which means “meaningless blunders.” It seems some viewers were not impressed by Vikrant’s role in this trailer.
