Ever since Imtiaz Ali has signed Kartik Aaryan and Sara Ali Khan for his rom-com, fans have been curious to witness what and how will their celluloid romance unfold. Now that the nation knows the film is called Love Aaj Kal, they know this outing would be on the same lines as his 2009 success of the same name.

And ever since Ali has started making films, he has revelled in telling the same stories differently. His protagonists are aimless souls, who meet by coincidence, get separated by circumstances, and are united by destiny. And his passion for travel finds its way to his narratives too, and somehow the cities he bases his films in become one of the central characters.
