A cliched love story that fails to strike a chord

The story revolves around Akash who finds his soulmate Shruti in his early childhood as predicted by his loving grandfather (Rishi Kapoor) but ended up leaving his hometown for further studies without informing her. As the story progresses, he finds himself tattered with the daily nuisances of his poky boss and the need to save his job leads him to wooing Mrs. Pablo (Urvashi Rautela) at a Yoga centre in Canada where he apparently bumps into his childhood sweetheart again. And this starts a failed love triangle that neither impresses you nor convinces you to say the least. Meanwhile, his grandfather gets (very) old, his Johnson and Johnson photo studio is on the verge of its final deal and a continuous flashback of how 500 steps actually made him find his love is all intermingled within the same film. Imagine! Out of the many done-to-death concepts this film had, the notable ones include the boss' character played by Manoj Joshi, who not only had a terrible command over spoken English but also expected us to laugh on those not-so-funny unbearable grammatical faux passes. To the film’s credit, the picturesque locales are so wonderful that you’ll often find yourself mesmerized by just the scenic beauty. However at times they look too animated to be real. Yes, the film also rides high on cinematography which makes it a visual delight. The way they’ve portrayed the details of a grandfather-grandson relation is also impressive and really heartwarming to see. Another plus for the film is the melodious musical score that is sure to give you a sigh of relief then and now but not for long. The number of songs in this film is so large that you eventually lose the count of it too. So whenever you’re even tad-bit involved in a scene, be prepared for a song to bump into your concentration.
