“What if your phone was exchanged with your significant other for a day?” Some wouldn’t worry, others have a lot to worry about. In either case, for most, it would not be a comfortable place to be. The larger question is, how does the relationship change after the day is over, if it still exists, that is? The premise for a story certainly rouses curiosity. And even if Loveyapa falters in terms of execution, it isn’t a complete washout. Unfortunately, it takes on a preachy uncle tone. Other than the premise itself, the film works because of its performances. Junaid…
