Weta Workshop of New Zealand and John Cox from Brisbane have created the special effects for the film, which is being directed by Harry Baweja. Even if the love angle does not interest the audience, the special effects are definitely something to look out for in this movie.

Obviously, the film will be up for comparison with some of the other Indian sci fi films that have been released earlier, notably Mr India, Koi Mil Gaya and Krrish. Mr India had Anil Kapoor playing the lead role with much aplomb. It came at a time when sci fi movies were new to India and the audience readily lapped it up.

Another sci fi flick was Rakesh Roshan’s hit Koi Mil Gaya, based entirely on the English film ET. Its sequel Krrish, starring Hrithik Roshan and Priyanka Chopra, was also a big hit with the audiences. Sci fi films are a relatively new and untrodden terrain for Bollywood, so it’s difficult to predict the fate of Love Story 2050. But from the previews, it looks like it might make its mark after all.
