Jai (Vasishta Simha) is an ex-gangster, a mental as per the rival gang and he is extremely possessive about his lover Janani. Correction, violently possessive. They elope and marry, which leads to Jai transforming himself for Janani by leaving behind his past life as a gangster and become a corporate employee. As they start a family of their own, tragedy hits him as Janani is diagnosed with a virus and he cannot figure out how she contracted it. How Jai protects Janani and solves the mystery around the virus, forms rest of the story. It's 2024 and the first 15mins has the most cringeist scenes stacked up one after another, wondering how the team thought those scenes were even "okay" in the first place. They were clearly blinded in order to glorify the hero character and it was quite evident. The screenplay is definitely not novel and the pace is uneven. Everything is conveniently written for the sake of showcasing heroism but Vasishta Simha is far bigger talent to be treated this way. It is just another by the numbers revenge drama with enough bloodshed. The comedy scenes especially with double meaning dialogues adds onto the cringe. Again, Vasishta is committed and he does excel but the film doesn't do any justice for his talent.

Love Li is a Kannada movie that tries to ride the wave of romantic dramas but ends up sinking under the weight of its cliches, lackluster performances, and uninspired direction. With an unoriginal plot and forgettable characters, this film is a prime example of what happens when filmmakers rely too heavily on formulas and forget to inject creativity and authenticity. The story follows the typical trope of a love triangle, featuring an indecisive protagonist who is torn between his first love and a new, more assertive romantic interest. From the outset, Love Li fails to offer anything fresh or compelling. The plot meanders through predictable twists and turns, never surprising the audience or offering deeper insight into the characters' motivations. The narrative feels stretched thin, making the film's runtime a test of patience. One of the few aspects where Love Li could have excelled is its soundtrack, given that music often plays a crucial role in Kannada romantic dramas. However, even here, the film falls short. The songs are forgettable and do little to enhance the narrative or evoke any emotion. The background score is overbearing at times, attempting to compensate for the lack of emotional depth but only managing to highlight the film's shortcomings. It's a film best left unwatched unless you're in the mood for a lesson in what not to do in filmmaking.

"Director chethan Keshav has done a Great Job in waving a relatable and engaging Story,"Love Li" is a beautiful portrayal of love and relationships". A must-watch for Kannada cinema fans, with a unique storyline and characters ,A great effort by the entire team and i really loved Jai and Janani both chemistry. Sadhu sir comedy worked well..this movie made Kannada cinema proud and Love li is a groundbreaking film that shines a light on HIV awareness and acceptance. Its sensitive portrayal and impactful storytelling make it a must-watch for its contribution to Kannada cinema and social impact...

Movies are meant to watch and enjoy. This movie is perfect one for those who appreciate and feel the immense pure love in their heart. Loved the movie very much. Infact I created IMDB account now to rate this and writing this review. Hats off to Vashista Simha, Stefy Patel.... Literally enjoyed your combination. Dattatreya Sir... Your'e absolute gem in our industry. Even though short role, but graeat acting. Finally, Chetan Keshav Sir. Thanks for this movie. I am feeling sorry for not watching this movie in theatre. Without thinking much one can watch this movie for one time and enjoy and also can get bit emotional.

How dare you dish up this hyper-stereotypical garbage and rate it 10/10 - this to the clearly dishonest reviewers. Starting off with sexual harassment and gender abuse, hacking off an arm with our hyper-macho superman beating up uncounted villains, a story-line of perfect house and perfect couple but rejection of family for the sake of love. The reaction to the pregnancy - how crass, how awful. The visual jokes based on physical appearance. After 31 minutes it was a case of puke or depart. So I did, take your pick which one. Surely there should be some review of rating standards - at 9+ I was curious but suspicious, well very suspicious, and rightly so. One redeeming feature might just be the photography, which did indeed catch my eye.

Worst movie. Not a good story line. The movie has nothing just dragged and unnecessary scenes , unrealistic scenarios. Comedy scenes are also not well scripted. Overacting by Sadu Kokila. Unnecessary characters. Not good background music. Vasishta acting is ok. But his charcter is over dramatic . The reviews here are misleading and overall IMdb rating is making people waste their time by watching this movie. Kannada movies should be nice and take our industry to the next level. Not make others feel we don't know how to make movies. Hope new good movies come and entertain people. I give 1 rating to this movie.

One of the worst outdated movie watched, feels like serial sentimental type do need to get updated, i love Vashistha acting but this movie is a big disappointment. Loved his acting in Mayabazar, Godhi Banna, Rajahuli, Tagaru, KGF and so on. Especially all the characters in this movie feels like completely scripted and no natural acting except Sadhu Kokila. Not against Vashistha doing lead role but need a good story along with character matching to him. Need more kannada actors like him but don't need any movie like this as it is complete waste of time and money. Don't waste your precious time.
