The movie is a contemporary family drama, Luv U Alia
does not come across as a mishmash of characters, but has a streamlined
narration that takes you through the nuances of love, marriage and divorce. The
film has a specific kind of spectacle — an upper class, glossy one full of
revving bikes, exotic locations and five star hotels. Luv U Alia is a visual
extravaganza; colourful with eye candy. The first half of the film is a comedy
shouldered by Ravishankar as a bumbling don. It is in the second half that the
real story between Ravichandran and Bhoomika opens up. The film highlights how
personal egos and overt professional pursuits drive otherwise perfect couples
to divorce, the marital discord having an impact on the children of such
marriages. Every frame the director has captured through his cinematographer
looks like a beautiful painting worth preserving it with a frame. Thus Love U
Alia Movie is a love story with twist and turns, and how the situation turns
