Ishq Vishk Rebound dives into the complexities of love and friendship in the realm of Gen Z, weaving a narrative of a love quadrangle fraught with highs, lows, heartbreak, and personal dilemmas. The film's popular soundtrack and the charismatic performances of its leads promise a rollercoaster of emotions.
 
Director Nipun Dharmadhikari's Ishq Vishk Rebound explores contemporary themes of love and relationships through the lens of youthful exuberance. The story revolves around a love quadrangle, navigated skillfully by Rohit Saraf and Jibraan Khan, who deliver standout performances that anchor the film. Saraf shines in a role tailor-made for his talents, bringing depth and authenticity to his character's emotional journey. His chemistry with Jibraan Khan, who displays promise as a budding actor with a magnetic screen presence, adds charm and engagement to their scenes together, especially on the dance floor where they truly sparkle.
 
While the performances of Saraf and Khan elevate the film, Pashmina Roshan's portrayal is a mixed bag. While she exhibits moments of brilliance, there are instances where her performance feels uneven and awkward. On the other hand, Naila Grrewal impresses with her natural acting prowess, leaving audiences yearning for more of her presence on screen.
 
Director Dharmadhikari succeeds in capturing dramatic highs with maturity, but the narrative occasionally falters due to pacing issues and a script that could have been tighter. The film's thematic exploration of love, friendship, and personal growth resonates with its target audience of young adults, offering moments of relatability amidst the melodrama.
 
The soundtrack of Ishq Vishk Rebound adds to its appeal, complementing the emotional arcs of the characters and enhancing the overall viewing experience. However, the film's potential could have been fully realized with stronger script execution and a more balanced focus on character development.
 
Ishq Vishk Rebound is a decent watch for fans of romantic dramas, particularly those interested in exploring the complexities of modern relationships and youthful aspirations. While it has its share of highs and lows, the standout performances by Rohit Saraf and Jibraan Khan make it a compelling narrative that stays with you, despite its flaws.
