Review

The movie is all about the modern day relationships which is the best part of the film. Despite having good and contemporary story, the director has failed to impress the audience with his narration. The clumsy screenplay especially in the first half became the major setback. Despite having some breezy scenes, the director has made the heroes character extremely dull which made it impossible for the audience to connect well with the character. 

The director took a bold subject but failed to execute it properly. 80% of the film is in English which will be tough for the normal audience to connect with the storyline. The dialogues are well written. The cinematographer has produced some bright visuals for the film. Editing is decent. The movie might have been good on paper but the sluggish screenplay and the forced comedy will irritate the audience.  

Both Bimal Karthik and Sanchita Poonacha looked promising on the screens. Their chemistry also worked out really well and their screen presence is good to watch. Despite getting a bold character, Sanchita performed well and impressed with her subtle expressions. 

Verdict

'Love life and Pakodi' is a decent take on the modern-day relationships but lacks in terms of narration and emotions.
