A unique movie with a lot of stories being portrayed simultaneously.

The songs of this movie are absolutely amazing. It makes transports you, and makes you feel the exact emotion being portrayed.

My take on each sub stories: #1 The Prime Minister's story seems a bit foolish, but I like his guts and humbleness.

#2 The Novelist seems pretty dumb, and I didn't like that story much, but I guess it showcases that love doesn't need language, it is based on someone's character. Even if you can't understand anything, the way someone behaves, a person's character reveals a lot about him/her.

#3 The stepfather and son combo is what I loved a lot. A supportive father, who teaches about love and supports his dream and pushes him to be better. That touched my heart.

#4 The husband and wife. The guy should have never ever tried to cheat on his wife, a man who cheats or at least tries to cheat isn't a man. A true man realizes his wife's sacrifices, love and support, and wouldn't fall for infatuations.

#5 The Girl with the mentally ill brother. If the guy loved her for who she is, for all her goodness, quirks, faults, and family, then he would have not left her. The guy was only there for the sex. He isn't genuinely interested in her. If he was, he would have supported her in her journey.

#6 The story of the best friend seemed stupid also. But I liked how that story ended.

#7 The story of the two stand-in actors is the most funny and wicked. The innocence of the two is really cute and heartwarming.

# Special mention to Rowan Atkinson. I don't know if anyone noticed, but he felt like a god's angel. Being there at the right place at the right time. His role might seem small, but it has deep significance in the whole spiderweb of encounters and outcomes.

Never have regret in life. Always do the things you want to do in life. It might not always be the right or wrong decision, as there is never a right decision. Each decision teaches us lots of important life lessons. Learn from each lesson and keep living life.

Love actually might seem foolish, but it portrays the different kinds of love out there. Love might seem stupid, foolish and impractical. But it's one of life's purpose. Humans are built to find their passion and purpose in life, along with sharing his/her life with a love of his/her life.

What is the point of all the money, adventure, experience if you don't have someone to share and enjoy it with. Every good experience and good news, first thing that you would want to do, would be to share that news with the people whom you love. If sharing your life, the good times and the bad times, with the people whom you love, isn't life aim of life. Then what is the point of living life?

You only have one life, so life it to the fullest.

Hope you find the love of your life someday to share your life with.
