Ishq Preview

Nitin has had a hard luck for many years now.  Nobody knows it better than this once-celebrated lover boy what unrealistic films can do to a career.  Thankfully, he seeks to set the record straight with Ishq.  According to the actor, the film is closer to reality.  A love story in which family values form the crux, the Vikram Kumar-directed film stars Nithya Menon as the female lead.

The director has assured us that although the story is a simple one, treatment, screenplay and the visuals are unique.  To top it, the makers promise that Ishq would set a new trend in the genre of romantic movies.

The film is crucial to the sagging career of Nitin, who has become synonymous with few-film wonder.  It is not that there is no talent in him.  We never had any doubts about that - especially after watching him in Sye.  He realises the importance of being prudent in making choices.  Exaggerated heroism, he now knows, doesn't have a universal value.

He is sharing space with not just Nithya Menon, but also Sindhu Tholani.  Ajay is playing another key role here.
