The nine stories of Strange Love center on Annie Zito, a smart-but-not-always-wise divorced mother, and Marly, her strong yet vulnerable daughter, as they seek and stumble upon an odd cast of boys and men. All the stories are linked and alternate between mother and daughter a Complex, comical, and poignant linked stories about a mother and daughter's attempts to find love. Yes, it is 'strange' for sure.Complex, comical, and poignant linked stories about a mother and daughter's attempts to find love. There is a semblance of a 'story' but the 'love' element doesn't quite come out well. Unfortunately even when the suspense is revealed, you are left wondering what exactly was the entire hullabaloo about. You keep wondering right through the film what is it trying to convey. 'A Strange Love Story' is indeed a strange film. Supporting actors (Raj Zutshi, Yashpal Sharma, Milind Gunaji, Snehal Dabbi) too barely manage to pass muster. Eddie is just not the one whom you want to see again as a leading man. Ashutosh Rana is good when playing natural but the moment he is required to go through dramatics, he isn't impressive.
Acting is uniformly below par with Riya Sen looking good but just not managing to keep her head high in the emotional scenes. Music though is decent with 'Nede Nede' being the pick of the lot.

However the motive (when revealed) turns out to be so 'strange' as well as poorly written that you end up wondering if the script was being written on the sets.įilm's cinematography is below average and seems to be suited for a TV serial.
Riya's visions, warnings from strangers, Ashutosh Rana's strange behaviour, presence of the surreal - all of it actually manages to contribute in creating an environment of intrigue. Since you watch the film with zero expectations, you don't quite mind the entire build up around the suspense. There are numerous incidents like these which end up killing whatever little impact that the first half of the film had made. This is where the entire drama just fizzles out and the entire film seems like an exercise in futility. Worse is reserved for the end when the spirit decides to leave the duo without much ado. Next day morning it is all business as usual all over again as if nothing had happened. Later when the spirit comes right in front of them and even goes on to possess Riya's body, everyone just stands there without any reactions whatsoever. However when he passes on the message to Riya, he does so while sipping his coffee as if he was reading the morning newspaper. Eddie gets a call from his dad who conveys to him a shocking truth. The film never makes up it's mind if it wants to be a horror, supernatural or a love story. How the mystery is solved and this love story comes to its culmination is the strangest part of this enterprise. He packs them off to Simla but strange things start happening to the young couple as they start getting visions and presence of spirits all around them.
However a Crime Branch officer (Ashutosh Rana) feels that both Riya as well as Eddie are innocent. A murder (of Raj Zutshi) happens in the interim and all evidences point at Ria. They fall in love and suddenly there are 'jeena marna tere sang' kind of 'kasamein' being spoken around. Riya Sen is a young Goan girl who comes close contact with an absolute stranger (Eddie Seth). However for someone to actually finance a film like this which doesn't really promise much when it comes to entertainment, it is nothing but really strange.

One can understand the actors to be consenting to play their respective roles since they are getting to play the lead protagonists when nothing much is happening in their professional career. It is surprising to see that a film like 'A Strange Love Story' can actually be commissioned to move ahead from scripting to final execution.
