Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan Review: Heart touching story has freshness, great work by Vikrant Massey and Shanaya Kapoor

Vikrant Massey and Shanaya Kapoor’s film Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan is now among the audience. The film is directed by Santosh Singh and is based on Ruskin Bond’s short story “The Eyes Have It”. Sanjay Kapoor’s daughter and Anil Kapoor’s niece Shanaya Kapoor has debuted with this film and the special thing is that Vikrant Massey has done such a romantic role for the first time.

Story of the film
The film ‘Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan’ is the story of a theatre artist and a blind musician, which depicts various aspects of love and life. The story of the film begins with a train journey. In this journey, there is a character named Jahan who is a musician and Shanaya Kapoor plays the character of Saba who is a theater artist and has to audition for the film. For this audition, she wears a blindfold so that she can prepare for the blind character. Saba and Jahan meet in the train and then you should watch the film to know what happens next because there is something new in the story whose suspense we do not want to reveal.

Acting
Vikrant Massey has already made a place in the hearts of the audience with his acting, so let’s first talk about debutante Shanaya Kapoor. Shanaya Kapoor looks very confident in her first film itself. Seeing her acting, it seems that she has prepared before coming on screen. Shanaya Kapoor’s dialogue delivery, expressions and overall screen presence are absolutely impressive. Although she still has a long way to go, but the start is good. Vikrant Massey, who has won hearts with his diverse roles, has played such a romantic role for the first time in which he looks fantastic. Vikrant has played his character well. Apart from Jahan and Saba, there are only a few characters in the film but whatever small characters they are, they have played them well.

Writing and Direction
The film Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan is a romantic love story but the special thing is that there is something new in this story. Why there is darkness in the eyes of two people at different times and how they meet and part with each other has been written in a wonderful way. The dialogues of this film are very good which are a pleasure to listen to. The director of the film Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan has also handled his chair well. His direction is good. His direction brings out the essence of love, pain and purity very beautifully.

Overall
The story of Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan touches the heart. But if there were some more characters in this film, then the film could have been better because in the whole film only two characters are present in almost every scene, so the film seems to drag at some places. Many scenes seem long. Some characters are added in the second half, so the film looks better in the second half. There is an attempt to add a touch of humor along with romance and emotion in this film, but there seems to be a slight lack of entertainment. If in such a story, the hero and heroine have friends or a comic track, then that track makes the film even more interesting. There is a blend of deep emotional moments but it is a heart-touching story which unfolds slowly and leaves a deep impression on you.”

Conclusion
Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan is a heartwarming story that connects with the audience emotionally. Performances by Shanaya Kapoor and Vikrant Massey are impressive and the direction is superb. A fresh love story worth watching.
