Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat (EDKD) Review: Harshvardhan Rane And Sonam Bajwa Shine In Milap Zaveri’s Soulful Saga Of Passion, Pain, And Redemption

This Diwali, while Thamma brings chills and thrills, Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat (EDKD) brings tears and tremors of love. Directed by Milap Milan Zaveri, the film marks his return after the much-talked-about Satyameva Jayate 2, and this time, he dives deep into the ocean of emotions. Starring Harshvardhan Rane, Sonam Bajwa, and Shaad Randhawa, the film explores the madness that hides behind true love, the kind that heals and hurts in equal measure. This romantic musical clashed head-on with Maddock’s Thamma but still managed to carve its own emotional space among the audience.

Milap Milan Zaveri, known for his larger-than-life dialogues, takes a surprisingly poetic route here. Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat is not your typical Bollywood romance. It’s passionate, painful, and deeply personal, a reminder that love isn’t always sunshine; sometimes, it’s a storm that consumes everything.

Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat (EDKD) Story

At its heart, Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat is about Vikramaditya Bhonsle (Harshvardhan Rane) and Adaa Randhawa (Sonam Bajwa) — whose love story begins with warmth but ends in fire. It is a one-sided story. Vikramaditya is an arrogant guy who gets what he wants by hook or by crook. Love at first sight blossoms when Vikramaditya sees Adaa. He tries to win her heart, but unfortunately, he wants to by his own way, and that has been downright ignored by Adaa. Then, a misunderstanding, one moment of doubt, and their world shatters.

The story gradually moves from soft romantic moments to intense emotional confrontations. Every meeting, every dialogue, every silence between them feels heavy. Love and hate dance together in every frame.

The movie also dives into obsession — how love can turn into madness when it’s lost. Vikramaditya’s journey from a lover to a man haunted by memories is painful to watch yet impossible to turn away from. Adaa’s transformation is equally gripping — from the woman who stands on her legs to one who now hides her pain behind grace and strength.

Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat Movie Review

Milap Zaveri returns with a film that feels personal and heartfelt. Unlike his earlier action-packed dramas, Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat is drenched in emotion and poetry. The narrative moves like a song, slow at first, then rising in rhythm, and finally hitting you hard in the heart.

Writers Mushtaq Shiekh and Milap Zaveri have written the dialogues beautifully. They are powerful. Yes, some of them may find it unnecessary. But honestly, you should not forget it is Milap Milan Zaveri’s film. His films are already filled with powerful dialogue. Zaveri doesn’t glorify heartbreak; he explores it. He shows how love can heal and destroy, how obsession can feel like devotion, and how every goodbye leaves behind a scar that never fades.

The first half of EDKD starts a tad too slowly. It focuses on building the love story, the innocence, the chemistry, and the connection. The second half, however, takes you into the darker side of love, where betrayal, revenge, and longing collide. There are moments where you’ll feel the pain just by looking into Harshvardhan’s eyes.

The cinematography by Sanjay Kumar captures the mood perfectly. The use of warm tones for love and cold hues for heartbreak adds to the emotional texture. The music by Mithoon and Jeet Gannguli is pure magic; each song feels like a letter written from one lover to another. Deewaniyat, Bol Kaffara, and Dil Dil Dil are instant classics that stay long after the credits roll.

Zaveri deserves credit for balancing intensity with tenderness. The film may feel melodramatic at times, but it gathers when the emotions run high. It’s old-school romance told with new-age sensitivity.

Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat Performances

Harshvardhan Rane carries the entire film on his shoulders. His portrayal is raw, restrained, and powerful. You can feel every heartbeat of his character, his love, his guilt, and his madness. This is easily one of Harshvardhan’s finest performances after Sanam Teri Kasam. He proves once again that nobody can portray heartbreak like him.

Sonam Bajwa shines as Adaa. She looks stunning but performs even better. Her emotional range from innocence to agony feels effortless. This is her most layered role yet. Together, their chemistry is electric; you can feel their love even in their silence.

Shaad Randhawa plays his part with utmost sincerity. The supporting cast, though limited, serves the story well. They act as emotional anchors but never overshadow the leads. This is clearly Harshvardhan and Sonam’s film, and they make every moment count.

Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat’s emotional sequences hit harder because of the performances. The scenes where the duo  confront each other are pure gold, charged with emotion, anger, and love that refuses to die.

Final Verdict

Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat is not just a film, it’s a feeling. It’s about love that hurts, passion that burns, and memories that never fade. Milap Zaveri delivers a deeply emotional, poetic, and beautifully crafted romantic drama that stays with you long after you leave the theatre.

The music, the dialogues, and the performances work in favor. If you’ve ever loved deeply, lost someone, or still believe in the magic of madness in love, Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat will strike straight at your heart.
