Reviews

The reception to "Aisha" was mixed to average, with critics appreciating its polished aesthetic but critiquing its storyline and pacing. On IMDb, the film holds a modest rating of 5.1/10, reflecting a divided audience response. Critics from Rotten Tomatoes pointed out the film’s charm and the strong performance by Sonam Kapoor, noting that "Aisha's elegance and witty dialogues provide moments of delight despite a predictable plot." However, they also remarked that the movie sometimes struggles to deliver emotional depth, limiting its impact. The Times of India gave a moderately positive review, praising Kapoor's portrayal of an independent young woman and the film’s stylish presentation but felt the screenplay lacked maturity. Conversely, some reviews from India Today and Hindustan Times mentioned that while "Aisha" aimed to encapsulate the experiences of modern urban youth, it occasionally fell into clichés common in Bollywood romance comedies. Overall, the film was enjoyed for its lighthearted feel and fashion-forward visuals but criticized for a lack of narrative complexity and inconsistent pacing.
