Aap Jaisa Koi

While some may find the film problematic, Aap Jaisa Koi is largely being appreciated by the Janta for its visual aesthetics, subtle jibes at patriarchy and original songs. 

Starring R Madhavan and Fatima Sana Shaikh, Dharmatic Entertainment’s Aap Jaisa Koi has sparked a range of conversations online. From being called a light-hearted version of Karan Johar's Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani to being appreciated as a visually pleasing film with a few original and enjoyable songs, the Janta has dissected it from every angle. While some of them are upset with the film’s depiction of an extra-marital affair so much so as calling it a justification of cheating in the name of progressiveness, there are many others who are lauding its subtle jibes at the patriarchal baggage that often hide behind so called performative progressiveness.

The kind that’s okay with a woman being free, but only within certain limits. What’s been most widely appreciated, however, are the film’s highly stylized, aesthetic frames and choreographed musical sequences that add visual charm. The film's core message that love only wants love in return but with equality and Ayesha Raza’s performance as a woman finally taking a stand for herself has especially resonated with many.
