Gustaakh Ishq

Gustaakh Ishq offers a tender exploration of love, loss, and the quiet battle to preserve tradition in a world that is rapidly modernising. The narrative unfolds in the narrow lanes of Daryaganj in Old Delhi, a backdrop that adds warmth, nostalgia, and cultural texture to the story.

Vijay Varma portrays Nawabuddin Saifuddin Rahman, a man weighed down by responsibility yet motivated by a deeply personal ambition. He dreams of reviving his late father’s abandoned printing press in an effort to keep a fading family legacy alive.

His life takes an unexpected turn during a work visit to Punjab, where he meets the daughter of an Urdu poet, played by Fatima Sana Shaikh. Their meeting gradually blossoms into love, shaping the emotional heart of the film.

Produced by designer Manish Malhotra, the film focuses more on the inner emotional journeys of its characters than on dramatic plot twists, giving it a gentle, reflective tone.
