Manish Malhotra’s Gustaakh Isqh - Kucch Pehle Jaisa is all set for an official premiere at the 56th International Film Festival of India (IFFI) in Goa. The festival is scheduled to be held from 20th November to 28th, and Gustaakh Ishq will have its grand premiere on 24th November.

For Manish Malhotra, the film marks his first cinematic production under Stage5 Production, celebrating old-school love, poetry and shayris - bringing back the charm of nostalgic ishq. Considering that Gustaakh Ishq marks Malhotra’s debut film as a producer, its premiere at IFFI is a milestone for him and the Indian film industry.

In the rush of back-to-back releases of loud and larger-than-life creations, it’s rare to see a film that holds the magic of old-school love and rewinds time. But even in the hustle of conventional releases, the times are changing. Manish Malhotra steps into film production with Gustaakh Ishq - Kucch Pehle Jaisa, a romantic poetic drama that breaks away from the clutter of loud narratives.

Bollywood’s latest memory has left the audiences eagerly waiting to breathe something fresh on-screen, and the recently released trailer of  _Gustaakh Ishq_ promises to serve an entirely refreshing tale. It presents old-time romance just the way it has been since ages - comforting, nostalgic, steady and most importantly, not rushed.

Produced by Manish Malhotra alongside his brother Dinesh Malhotra under Stage5 Production, Gustaakh Ishq is directed by Vibhu Puri, and it unfolds as a poignant tale of passion and unspoken desire, set amidst the bylanes of Purani Dilli and the fading kothis of Punjab. The film releases in theatres on 28th November.
