Plot
Simran (Sonam Kapoor) loves Bollywood romances—so much so that her life has begun to resemble one. With her awesome job and a "Mr. Perfect" fiancé, Raj (Sameer Dattani), she lives a dreamy life. But then comes Jay (Imran Khan), who brings a fresh joy into her life. Jay is an assistant to a director who is famous for his love story films; however, Jay hates love stories. He is a Casanova and a disbeliever of love. He first hates Simran for her obsession with romance, and Simran also has a bad impression of him, but soon after, the two become best friends.Simran's close bond with Jay brings problems in her love life with her fiancé, Raj. She feels that Raj is not right for her, and falls deeply in love with Jay, dreaming of spending her entire life with him. She decides to confess her feelings to him, but after doing so, Jay explains that he never thought of her that way--they were only best friends. Heartbroken, Simran leaves. She moves from Mumbai to New Zealand for further shooting of the film and its premiere, and does not speak to Jay.
Jay finds that her absence in his life upsets him and realizes that he has fallen in love with her. He goes to New Zealand and plans a romantic dinner, asking Simran to meet him. He admits that he loves her but this time, she rejects him, as she does not want to hurt Raj's feelings after giving him another chance. A brokenhearted Jay tries to accept the fact that he has lost Simran to Raj. However, Jay's friends and his mother persuade him to not give up on Simran. Jay tries to make Simran jealous to make her come back but soon realizes that manipulating her feelings will hurt her even more.
Meanwhile, Raj proposes to Simran, and she accepts. But later, Simran realizes she doesn't love Raj, and tells him so. She goes to the movie premiere, where she hopes to meet Jay. On the other hand, Jay is leaving, as he has given up all hopes of being with Simran. At the airport, he talks to his mother and she again asks him not to give up. Encouraged, Jay runs back to the premiere. He finds Simran outside the theater and the two express their love for each other and hug, finally getting their happy ending.

Reception
Critical response
Among Indian film critics on the review-aggregation website, ReviewGang, the film scored 4.5/10 based on 6 reviews. Sukanya Verma of Rediff praised the lead performances and rated the movie 3/5 saying, "It's Imran and Sonam's collective persona and their free-flowing chemistry that makes all the difference. Although the pair deserve better than an amateurishly written romance to scoop out their terrific potential as a combination". Gaurav Malani of IndiaTimes rated the movie 2/5 and said, "If you hate love stories this one’s certainly not for you. Which means this ends up being another love story and that too a dull one!". Nikhat Kazmi of Times of India also praised the lead performances but found the plot predictable and rated the movie 3/5 saying, "Thematically, I Hate Luv Storys, is extremely simplistic, uni-layered and terribly predictable". Rahul Nanda of Filmfare rated it 2/5 and said, "The film never equals the sum of all its part, but it’s impossible to deny the energy with which it keeps the plot ticking on".Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama gave it 3.5/5 saying, "On the whole, I Hate Luv Storys is a young and vibrant love story with tremendous appeal for the yuppies. The fresh pairing and the on-screen electrifying chemistry, the lilting musical score and the magical moments in the film should attract its target audience". Parimal M. Rohit of Buzzine Bollywood added, "I Hate Luv Storys features no shortage of cheesy dialogue, simplistically thematic humor, and unrealistic depictions of lifestyles" but still has "some redeeming values (such as) the chemistry between Sonam Kapoor and Imran Khan ... strong individual performances, genuine corniness, and memorable avatars....". Subhash K Jha was not impressed by the movie, calling it "a disappointment".Box office
The film had a strong opening in multiplexes and an average opening in single screens. It grossed Rs. 72.52 crores lifetime and was declared a hit at the box office.
