No marriage for Imran this year

New Delhi, April 28: He went down on his knees to propose to sweetheart Avantika Malik, but actor Imran Khan says he doesn’t like the idea of love. “I’ve never been able to read those Mills & Boon romances.

But I did read Eric Segal’s Love Story. I liked it.

” That’s why he could relate to his upcoming film I Hate Luv Storys. “A lot of it is based on real experiences.

But I have little in common with my character, apart from our sense of humour. Like him, I crack jokes with a straight face and I too am opposed to the idea of love.

” He may not like the idea of love, but Imran is keen to ensure that his own love story has a happy ending. “My engagement (with Avantika) happened in a bit of a rush, which is why I’ve decided to plan my marriage more carefully.

I need to figure out my schedule carefully, so I can take time off to get married and go for a long honeymoon. It won’t happen this year for sure.

” Talking about I Hate.

, he says, “It’s a romantic comedy set in the film industry.

Sonam (Kapoor) plays a production designer and I’m an assistant director. We’ve even shot on actual sets in Film City.
