Imagine a couple in love that has run away from their home and family. They find themselves in the hills because the man, who grew up there, wants to show his beloved all his childhood haunts. If your first instinct was to imagine a young couple dancing around trees, then this short film is for you. <br><br> It attempts to break the stereotype of love and relationships belonging only to a fixed age group by taking us into the lives of its protagonists, inhabitants of an old age home. As they traverse their memories of love, loss and childhood rivalries, there is perhaps one last battle to be won. Lillette Dubey is breathtaking in the film, supported by Mohan Agashe in the most endearing manner. Purana Pyaar also deserves praise for its writing and storytelling.

#PuranaPyaar | Short Film of the Day

The short film aspires to be a lot of things, but falls short in many ways. It under-utilises the potential of an actor as experienced as Jackie Shroff. However, despite its bad sound quality and an inept handling of the script, the film leaves the audience with a sense of hope and the idea that no matter, the show always goes on.
