Imtiaz Ali’s Love Aaj Kal has received mixed reviews, but there’s one thing in the film that is being loved by one and all. Well, we are talking about the music of the film which is composed by Pritam.
Even lead actors Kartik Aaryan and Sara Ali Khan are all praises for Pritam’s music in the film. Kartik stated, "He is the best in the business and he is someone whose music has always been my personal favourite and the favourite song from the film would be Mehrama. The early Love Aaj Kal was the one which had great music, the whole album was such a huge success and he did it again with this Love Aaj Kal and couldn't have asked for better songs. I think the song from our love story, from our Love Aaj Kal, I think they play an important role in our movie and Pritam Da has done it again."
Sara added, "The lyrics, music, vibe, feeling of the song has the power to take you back down memory lane immediately. I think that's the power of the song. A lot of our songs have been composed after we have shot them. I almost feel like, especially with Mehrama that we shot on the song and that's why it's my favourite song."
Well, this year we will also get to hear Pritam’s composition in movies like Ranveer Singh starrer ’83, Aamir Khan and Kareena Kapoor Khan starrer Laal Singh Chaddha and Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt starrer Brahmastra.
Talking about Love Aaj Kal, the film took a bumper opening at the box office by collecting Rs 12.40 crore on day one. However, the movie dropped on day two and collected Rs 8.01 crore, taking the two-day total to Rs 20.41 crore.

Man pleads not guilty to murder of BBC presenter's family
A 26-year-old man has pleaded not guilty to charges of murdering the wife and two daughters of BBC sports commentator John Hunt in a crossbow and knife attack.
Kyle Clifford, who also faces charges of rape, appeared via video link at Cambridge Crown Court on Thursday.
Clifford, arrested in July after a manhunt, is charged with three counts of murder, one count each of rape and false imprisonment, and two counts of possessing offensive weapons – a 10-inch knife and a crossbow.
During the hearing, Clifford denied all the charges except for the rape charge, which was added to the indictment at the session.
He is expected to enter a plea for that charge at a later date.
The victims were Carol Hunt, 61, wife of horseracing commentator John Hunt, and their daughters Louise, 25, and Hannah, 28.
An earlier hearing revealed that Louise had been found tied up and that both she and her sister had been shot with a crossbow, while their mother had been stabbed with a knife.
The fatal attack occurred at the family’s home in Bushey, a commuter town near Watford, northwest of London.
