What went wrong with 'Daawat-e-Ishq' - Parineeti quests

Nov 6, 2014 NR

Young actress Parineeti Chopra analyses why her last release "Daawat-e-Ishq" didn't do well at the box office, and she believes she has the right answer.

"According to me, what I think is since Aditya and I are very young, probably the audience wanted a much younger film with the two of us together", she said.

The gastronomic romantic comedy saw Parineeti romancing Aditya Roy Kapoor. They got ample support from veteran actor Anupam Kher.

"'Daawat-e-Ishq' would have worked if the casting would have been different. Because Aditya and me were together, people were expecting a much younger and energetic film."

"We didn't match the film, but yes, it was a learning experience for me. Such films teach you a lot", she added.

Interestingly, the film was helmed by Habib Faizal, known for wielding the megaphone for two most appreciated dramas from two different genres - "Ishaqzaade" and "Do Dooni Chaar". But he couldn't get lucky a third time. Click the Movie button below for more info:
