NDTV: "All the six episodes of Feels Like Ishq tap the quaint and explore the unexpressed. They have something on offer by way of understated drama. The series has one creative director (Devrath Sagar), but each story is written and directed by a separate duo. So, every short film has a distinct flavour and inevitably differs from the others in terms of impact and accomplishment."
The Hindu: "The brief for the writers and filmmakers, it seems, was to come up with a “sweet love story” that would give the target audience — teens and 20-somethings — that quintessential “warm, fuzzy” feeling. Enough, Netflix, you probably need to take a break from anthologies. Oh, wait a minute... (realises Navarasa in Tamil is releasing in two weeks)."

The Quint: "Perhaps the anthology’s greatest achievement is its casting— Radhika Madan, while a little cliched (think: Geet from Jab We Met) is convincing as a self-obsessed influencer, Mihir Ahuja plays the role of a star-struck teenager to perfection, and Sanjeeta Bhattacharya’s innocent exploration of her feelings make you root for her character the most."
Bollywood Life: "Feels Like Ishq is a perfect anthology for lovers of modern love stories. It has something for the traditional folks too. If you want to pass time, this might not be a bad option!"
Well, after reading the above reviews, we feel that Feels Like Ishq is not at all a bad watch. So, if you are looking to binge-watch some love-filled content this weekend, this TV series is for you. Stay tuned!
