The brilliance of Shanker Raman’s film lies in the way he juxtaposes these throwaway moments with all the mayhem and brutality that underscores the narrative. Totally in keeping with the innocuous, almost banal title of the film, Love Hostel, an ironical euphemism for the ‘safe home’ the government allots to couples who have dared to marry outside their caste/faith.
Love Hostel Movie Review 2022 : Love Hostel Critics Rating 2.0/5. LOVE HOSTEL is the story of a couple on the run. Ahmed Shokeen aka Ashu (Vikrant Massey) and Jyoti Dilawar (Sanya Malhotra) reside in a town in Haryana. Both love each other and decide to marry, against the wishes of their parents as Ashu is a Muslim. His father is.
Sanya Malhotra portrays her character with spunk and spirit without going overboard. Vikrant Massey projects a version of masculinity that does not shy away from embracing emotional vulnerability.
