There is nothing new in this story, many people even can predict the movie, But still its worth watching. Acting of Pariniti and Aditya's are superb. Small small elements and dialogs are very nice. Movie is realistic and if you are still enjoying your lively love life, this is the movie you should watch. There is nothing new in story but it still holds you till the end. Thanks Bollywood for giving such nice movie. Its a nice play with very nice message, lot of fun and superb dialog delivery. Watch it with family, as there are very few movies now a day coming out from Bollywood for family. Direction and locations do not have anything special but they makes the realistic scenes and perfectly suites the movie.

Amazing acting, story and direction. Definitely one of the top 10 Bollywood films to watch if your a Bollywood lover. Its not the usual dragged love story. Aditya Roy Kapur is a complete delight to watch, if you loved him in Aashiqui 2 you'll love him even more in Dawat e Ishq. Parineeti and Anupam Kher were very good too (their Hyderabadi accents were very good). Karan Wahi makes a sweet guy entry with his first film. If your a foodie it will be even better for you. It is a sweet film with love, comedy, a good message, and its fun filled. You will definitely be smiling walking out of the theater. It wont harm you but definitely amuse you.

This is a sweet, but extremely predictable story. One where you wish there was more meat, literally, to justify the title. You visually do see lots of food, in some cases being consumed too, but apart from stray mentions of 'my grandfather's recipe', you don't really talk about food – the favorite dishes, the taste…and thus what is cooked up is just another love story. Tired of incessant dowry demands from would-be suitors, Parineeti, one day, decides to get even. Till then, along with her father, Anupam Kher, she ekes out a normal, humdrum, middle class existence as a Hyderabadi Muslim, complete with dreams of America. Inspired by a huge settlement in a local dowry case, she decides she will entrap some rich, dowry demanding family and then use the settlement money to fulfill her dreams. Off they go to Lucknow, under fake identities. And meet Aditya Roy Kapur, who runs, one of the city's most popular eateries. And then the plan changes. Or doesn't it? Being a Habib Faisal movie, it obviously gets the milieu right – whether its that of a Hyderabadi Muslim (with their sing song dialect), or that of a wannabe middle class person (dreams of America while being a salesgirl at a local shoe store, wants a guy who speaks good English – even better if with an American twang), or even the scared/worried father, desperate to get his daughter married off. In fact, one of the more endearing sub-plots, which was briefly introduced but not really built on, related to Anupam Kher's job as a legal clerk, his own knowledge of the law and the court system yet, despite some egging from colleagues, his inability to fly – ie make the transition from being a clerk to becoming an advocate – despite retirement being just around the corner. Aditya and Parineeti, both, did justice to their roles, making their slightly over-the-top characters come to life. I particularly liked Aditya's screen presence, he has this slightly gangly look but more than makes up with his expressions and a shy, disarming smile. Hope he doesn't take up any more drunk, suicidal roles. The supporting cast, including the various demanding parents and suitors, was fascinating to watch – their mannerisms, the way their 'requests for help' were communicated (since no one actually uses the word dowry) and also the communication between spouses. All in all, a good film, a sweet love story, but one which doesn't really rise above the average Bollywood romcom and one where the title, Dawat-E-Ishq, seems like almost an after-thought, to differentiate itself from other films in this genre, without any substantial meat in the script

Director Mr. Habib Faisal work is OK. He enhanced the mood and scenes by some good shots. There was just an idea in the name of story. Idea is good but development is not. Screenplay offers nothing new. Dialogues by director himself are good and completely suits the mood of film. First half of the film is slow although sweet but second half is half cooked, slow and baseless. Incidents increased in second half but film slowed down because of not well justified scenes. I was unable to justify the first turn of movie that when the leads were aware about that Haidri Kebab is there target then why did they choose to go there? Climax action were not required at all and it looked very childish the way they executed it. Even the action sequence, when lead escaped with cash was complete non happening. Performance wise Parineeti Chopda is very good. Aditya Roy Kapoor is OK. Anupam Kher is fantastic. He uses his body language as a great tool to emote. Music by Sajid –Wajid is melodious and lyrics by Kausar Munir is good.

This movie seems like it was made in a hurry. A lot of loose ends, substandard performances by the cast and crew and lack of finesse in script, screenplay, characterization and direction is rampant. Nothing great about acting either. Anupam Kher, Parineeti Chopra, Aditya Roy - all appear to be themselves not the characters they are playing. Had Anupam and Parineeti, who play Hyderabadi characters, worked on Hyderabadi accent and style, it would have added a lot of value and amusement factor to the movie. Instead they've just said just 2-3 phrases, like putting "ich" in every other sentence to appear Hyderabadi. Parineeti is getting repetitive - same expressions, same demeanor in every movie. Aditya Roy Kapoor's character looks more like a buffoon and Karan Wahi acts so subdued as if scared of something. The movie is about the social-evil of dowry. How a girl and her father plan to get even on the dowry-mongers. But the "plan" is extremely childish, to say the least and is actually a plan to further bore the audience who are already half asleep. The lesser said about the two ludicrous "action" sequences, the better it would be. I had high expectations from Faisal Habib, he disappointed me. My advice - do not attend this dawat.

Daawat-e-ishq which stars Aditya Roy Kapoor and Parineeti Chopra in main leads. Its a story about a girl Gulrez and a hyderabadi cook.
