😉😆 Imitiaz ALI is a director that has received a lot of appreciation for his films. But, in a way he is kind of overrated. I didn't find JAB WE MET or LOVE AAJ KAAL pathbreaking films. Sure, they were big hits but at the end of the day, the actors made the films special. ROCKSTAR was truly Imitiaz's experimental film that paid off. However, some didn't like it. WHAT is so special about Imitiaz Ali? Please share your thoughts. 😊

Hes established a brand with JWM and LAK (i hated LAK, ridiculous to say the least). So from hereon, whatever movie he makes or is even associated with will be highly anticipated. Skmething like karan johar. Everyone wants to be a part of it and audiences wait for it.

I think he's overrated. I used to like his work initially..but the more I see his current work, the more I'm starting to think that this guy is either overrated or he's just not living up to expectations anymore. I was kind of disappointed with Rockstar as I had HUGE expectations from it ..casting of Nargis & the plot was flawed to say the least. If it weren't for Ranbir's performance, I wouldn't have liked that movie at all.

Most overrated director of this time. Besides SNT and JWM, everything else was pukeworthy.

I never liked movies like Rockstar or Jab We Met...and IDK why he's loved by 'masses'

LAK's story line itself was tooo ridiculous, and it's beyond my understanding how people went to watch it.

It could simply be because his stories are all about love, relationships...and kids, teens, young adults LOOOVE watching stuff like that.. 😕 ..

Theres a lack of love stories being produced so maybe that is it.

Really? 😆 ...most of the bollywood movies revolve around 'love' i think?

IDK...just the way Imtiaz makes movies like JWM, LAK, Rockstar... is so much about LOVE, nothing but love - fight for love, be born in next janam for love, love love love... and it appeals to youngsters especially, I remember, when these movies came out, everyone I met used to talk about these movies, and the craze was more during JWM and Rockstar 🤪

I think people still probably go because of the goodwill produced by JWM...and SNT (if they've seen it). Also the "look" of his films is usually pretty good. The music is foot-tapping. Essentially eveyrhting but the script is good nowadays for his films. 😆
