Nadiya Ke Paar

I belong to north UP and this movie is a true mirror showing culture of north UP to the rest of India. But this is not only one reason that I am praising this movie. This movie is really outstanding in every aspect...This cult classic is a good lesson to now a days bhojpuri dialect movies which are showing only vulgarity. This movie touches every cultural aspect of north india specially rural areas. Once my mother told that how this movie runs continuously for five years in a cinema theatre in Allahabad.

Sachin once again rocks as Chandan after "geet gaata chal" & "ankhiyon ke jharokhon se"...being a Mumbai boy, yet seems absolutely from north UP....actress Sadhna originally belongs to Varanasi and this movie shooted in Jaunpur...so she was best suited as Gunja and she did well enough...rest of the characters did justice to their roles.

And music...exceptionally brilliant...all songs are cult classic now...specially "kaun disha me"...so overall a must watch movie for every one and in my top five favourite movie...a big salute to rajshee...

"Nadiya Ke Paar" remains one of the most memorable family dramas by Rajshree Productions, a banner known for making clean, light-hearted family movies. The film was remade as "Hum Aapke Hain Kaun" in 90s which made a historic success. Set in the rural backdrop of India, the film depicts family values and love between two brothers. The film feels like a sweet breeze of air at times for its natural setting of a village with the characters speaking local dialect. Just watch this film to see how well "Hum Aapke Hain Kaun" has burrowed some of the best moments of "Nadiya Ke Paar," and just improvised and elaborated the sequences. Perhaps this makes "HAHK" one of the most successful movies despite a remake. The realistic setting, story, emotions, and a lovely music and songs by Ravindra Jain make "Nadiya Ke Paar" a treat to watch despite certain flaws in the movie such as a bit of its slow pace. Besides, the film at times slopes from the local dialect to Hindi which loses the spontaneity of the setting. Sachin feels a bit miscast (he has played such roles far too many) and other characters like Inder Thakur, Mitali, and Sadhana Singh add freshness to the screen.

Rating: 2 stars out of 4

Greatest movie that Rajshri production has ever produced. Direction is amazing, acting is superb, story is excellent. All actors seem natural. You will be surprised by the dialogue, locations, if you have ever lived in or seen a north Indian village.

You will find this movie beyond your expectation. Emotion, drama, comedy and many other genre are rightly mixed. Its about love, tradition, sacrifice. The music is awesome. Songs are exceptional. No one can watch it just once.

When you start the movie, you will say that this movie should never end. Especially the first half, totally fun.

A must watch movie!

Nadiya ke paar is a phenomenon. A true reflection of rural India in those times & it was brilliant time for sure. Remembering grandpa days. People used to come in bullock cart to see this movie. It was a huge huge hit. The music & cast was superb. Rajshri's pinnacle I guess. HAHK is a poor copy. They don't make movies like this anymore.

I always knew that Hum Aap ke hai kaun is remake of Nadiya ke Paar but never got a chance to see this movie. Having seen both of these movies, Nadiya ke paar is much better. The plot is better and characters justify their role very well. I really appreciate Rajshree production's way of showing Indian culture and tradition. If you are from Northern India then you can relate to this movie even more. I certainly had fun watching it and it's going to be in top 10 bollywood movies list of all time.

I don't know what happened to characters in this movie. For some reason, they did not click in other movies, but if I were to judge them solely based on this movie, they are super starts.
