MUMBAI: The trailer of Imtiaz Ali’s upcoming romantic drama Love Aaj Kal, starring Kartik Aaryan and Sara Ali Khan, dropped online on Friday and left netizens divided. While some appreciated the chemistry between the lead pair, others were unimpressed.

Like the original Love Aaj Kal, the new film also tells two parallel love stories, with one set in the 90s and the other in the present. At the trailer launch on Friday, Imtiaz said that Love Aaj Kal was a very 'franchisable idea' as the definition of love and relationships 'aaj' (today) and 'kal' (yesterday) keeps evolving with time. He added that a few years down the line, he could possibly make more films in the series, if he has something new to say.

Sara, at the trailer launch of Love Aaj Kal, opened up on comparisons with the original film as well as Saif and Deepika. Calling comparisons inevitable, she said that the definition of love is different today and that she does not think that Kartik had tried playing her father’s character or she had tried portraying  Deepika’s character.

She added that they both are playing a fresh pair with a fresh story with different characters. Comparison is not really necessary but will be continued because that's what thrives here.
