Daawat-e-Ishq directed by Habib Faisal is
Parineeti’s second movie with the director after Ishaqzaade. The movie traces
the story of Gulrez (Parineeti Chopra) who is a bright college student who
works at a shoe shop in her spare time. Her dad played by AnupamKher is ever
worried to get his daughter married; however every suitor comes with the
condition of dowry. The father daughter duo fed up with evils of the dowry
system plans to trap a rich man by getting him married to Gulrez and then
slapping a dowry case on him in order to strip him off his money to support the
daughter’s desire to study abroad. The man who is targeted is Tariq played by
Aditya Roy Kapoor.
The movie has many logical loopholes. It is
never explained why the father is so hell bent on getting his really young and
smart daughter married. Aditya Roy Kapoor as Tariq is not bad but his clothes
and makeup hurts the eye. Parineeti Chopra as the sly, bubbly Gulrez as always
is engaging. She has a rare quality of uplifting any scene to its fullest
potential. However it is the second half of the movie which goes completely
haywire and things take a turn for the worse, be it direction or acting to a
certain extent.
