'Ek Chhoti Si Love Story'

By ApunKaChoice Bureau
Film critic, ApunKaChoice.Com

Director Shashilal Nair’s Ek Chhoti Si Love Story, is based on the offbeat subject of an adolescent boy’s infatuation with his neighbor next door.

The film is the story of a curious teenager Aditya (played by Aditya Seal) who has been left under the care of his grandmother by his career-conscious parents. Alone and bored, Aditya spends his time training his telescope on a young and buxom girl Manisha (Manisha Koirala) living in a flat right opposite him.

Soon

Aditya’s hobby turns into infatuation as he begins to follow her movements closely. He feels sexually drawn towards her when he sees her coming out of her bath, her hair dripping wet. He feels jealous when he catches her making love with her boyfriend (Ranvir Shourie).

All this while Manisha is unaware of her secret admirer. And when the young boy musters up the courage and speaks his heart out to Manisha she takes it in her stride and gives him a little teaser on adolescent love.

Although the film does not contain any nudity or vulgar scenes it does highlight Manisha’s sensuality. The subject is novel but without much substance. The pace of narrative is slow and Shashilal’s sense of presentation is stylish but not innovative.

Above all, the touchy Piano leitmotif in the background throughout the film creates the right impact and brings about the associative emotions in viewers.
