Producer and Director Harry Baweja launches his son
Harman Baweja with this hi-tech thrilling saga of a boy
who breaks the barriers of time and travels into future
to bring back his ladylove.
Love Story 2050 is the story of a poor little rich boy
Karan (Harman Baweja) a young, spirited, sporty boy who
lives life off the rules. While holidaying with friends
in Adelaide, Karan falls for Sana (Priyanka Chopra) who
is a young petite, shy girl who lives life by the rules.
After some enthusiastic efforts, with some catchy songs,
he manages to win her love. As in bollywood, this love
story comes to a tragic ends. So far, it is impressive.
Having seen hi-tech action in many Hollywood films like
Batman, Superman and others, the director’ efforts appear
unimpressive even with hi-tech gadgets and the time
machine. The futuristic Mumbai has people drive flying
cars, robots, and sky rails which co-exist with the snake
charmers who play their “Been” to robotic serpants.
Sana becomes Ziesha in the
year 2050 who is a pop star and doesn’t believe in love.
Time is running out for Karan who has few weeks to prove
to Ziesha that she is his Sana and bring her back to 2008.
There are some exotic locations, exciting cycle races and
even the wonders of technology in 2050 in this love story.
Pop stars perform on a stage floating in stratosphere, the
digital maidservant who pops out of nowhere at the mere
mention of her name, and even a personal robot Boo who
does domestic chores for Ziesha. The villain is a masked
megalomaniac Dr. Hoshi who wants to get his hands on the
time machine.

Karan’s eccentric scientist uncle Dr. Yatinder Khanna (Boman
Irani) has developed a time machine that can transport a
person into another era and period. Sana expresses her
wish to travel to Mumbai in the future. And so, Sana,
along with her younger brother and sister Rahul and Thea
and uncle Ya, are transported via time machine into the
Mumbai of 2050.
This loner still pines for his lost love so Karan desires
to be reunited with Sana in the future. The date selected
is in the Mumbai of 2050.
Harman Baweja is a handsome boy, dances and emotes well.
It has the gloss and glitz which is unimpressive, yet
Priyanka Chopra does well in her first life and equally
good and even more attractive as Ziesha, the wooden girl
of 2050. Others like Boman Irani, Archana Puran Singh and
even the two kids Aman and Rushita are fine enough.
The film’s music by Anu Malik is just okay and lyrics are
by Javed Akhtar. Action, stunts (Alan Amin) and the
cinematography (Kiran Deohans) are the only impressive
aspect in this not so impressive film.
