Maine Pyar Kiya

Maine Pyar Kiya came out at the time when multistarrers were the safest bet at the box office. Maine Pyar Kiya the highest grossing movies of 1989 and considering it had to contend with Yash Chopra's Chandni that is very good indeed. Salman Khan and Bhagyashree made their debut along with debutant director Sooray Barjatya. Bhagyashree went on to get married whilst Salman Khan went on to star in Sooraj Barjatya's Hum Aapke hain koun and Hum Saath Saath Hain. Most people may claim HAHK was Mr Barjatya's best movie but I find it ridiculously overrated, MPK was Mr Barjatya's finest hour. The story is as old as the hills but the way it is told is very sweet and you really feel for the lovers. The thing I love so much about MPK is the songs, each one is a masterpiece. Usually when I listen to a movie soundtrack I normally listen to a couple of songs and skip the rest but not the case with MPK, I can listen to the songs over and over again and never get bored. My favourites are Mere Rang ne or Kabootar Ja Ja. In fact I would go as far as calling MPK the best soundtrack of the 80's. MPK is one of those love stories I can watch over and over again and love it even more. A true 80's masterpiece.

I have seen this movie 34 times.

I remember each and every scene, and all the music. I just love the romance and passion shown in this movie. The innocence, the love, dedication feelings displayed were absolutely good. It was a mega hit and had influenced the youth of that time. The songs were beautiful, meaningful and lyrics had the meanings. Everybody acted well in this movie. the movie also was clean and could have seen with family. I can see the movie several times without getting bored. I cant imagine if it has to be remade who can be the cast. It's like Sholay, you can not have it again. Some people may call it as a goody, goody movie, but I love to see it again and again.

This movie got my attention because unlike the normal "boy meets girl, can't marry girl" scheme, there was history to the story in the movie. The characters were all well drawn out from the parents to the "bad guys." The "sweet" character of "Suman" was shown to have a different side of her when she become a seductress on the rooftop as she celebrates her birthday with "Prem." The viewer gets to see that side of her which is passionate and perhaps not so innocent...the side the parents do not. The songs are all entertaining, and in the end, we finally see that good guys...and good girls for that matter...do not always finish last! ;-) This is a great movie for those who believe in true love!

Maine Pyar Kiya. Yes, I do. " Maine Pyar Kiya " is not just a family-romantic movie, but also a historical debut of Salman and Bhagyashree. They both made an amazing chemistry that will blow your mind.

The script is so wonderful that anyone will love it. The director did a wonderful job. The casting is also a perfect match for the plot.

The movie will remind your past love life if you have one. Once there was "LOVE" when two people loved each other for their inner loveliness, not for the physical needs. The plot shows that from the beginning to the end. No filthiness are shown in the movie.

Finally I will give a 9 for this amazing movie.

Most films fail to display family emotions and what happens within families and how they get torn apart but this film sheds a unique light on love, family values and the rich / poor divide.

A great moral movie with plenty for everyone to enjoy. Great acting, beautiful songs and a story that wants you to sit in eager anticipation and hope that prem succeeds in his quest to gain approval from his would be father-in-law.

Alok Nath plays his role well and so does the young Bagyshree. The only person who I felt played under himself was the character who played Salman Khans Father. M Behl is splendid as the devious villain and it is wonderful to see how flexible he is as a good guy or bad guy.

Physically speaking there is no magic in the movie but metaphorically speaking this movie is completely divine and full of magic.
