In a single frame, feel for the lovers

The principal performances range from precocious to authentic. Surprisingly Shahid tends to go overboard in the early comic sequences. But he makes up for the excesses in the second-half with expressions of a lover's anguish over Cupid's awry arrow.
Kareena looks gorgeous and slim in some scenes, gorgeous and relatively plump in other scenes. In totality the chemistry is quite palpable, much more so than in some of the other much-hyped love stories that arrived lately with a bang and fizzled out without the pang of love being palpable in a single frame.
In Milenge Milenge you do feel for the lovers. Maybe it has to do with the fact that we know what the film's lovers do not. That the actors playing them were involved not too long ago. But hush!

Please explain to me the highlighted parts.

This would be analogous to saying about a book, "without the pang of love being palpable on a single page."

If you look at a strip of movie film, you'll see that it's made up of a series of "frames."

Thank you.

So I feel it's like a "single scene".

And I guess "audience feel for the lovers" means "Audience will fill up with emotions when they see
the actor and actress enact like a true lover in the film".

Sorry, my "single page" comparison is defective. A typical film runs at a speed of 24 frames per second, so it would take several thousand frames to shoot a scene.

To say that something can't be found in a single frame, means that no matter how closely you look or how hard you search for it, you will not find it - because it's not there.

Yes, to "feel for the lovers" is to
