Govinda, as Sundar (alternatively spelled Sunder), plays a naive man from the rural hinterlands on his travels to the big city. Sundar is uneducated and is duped several times, even by his friends, through his innocence. Sundar meets Payal, portrayed by Rani, and through misunderstanding Sundar is mistaken for being mute. Sundar is uncertain if Payal loves him or pities him, but does not want to lose this love by revealing he can speak. Sundar eventually feels his lies make him unworthy of Payal's love, so he decides to take a drastic step.

Pyaar Diwana Hota Hai is a complete Bollywood film. It provides comedy, romance, musicals, drama, melodrama and to a degree, bittersweet horror. Govinda plays the full gamut of emotions brilliantly and it is hard not to empathize with his character's increasing anguish. An exemplary moment is while Sundar is waiting in a room before he has an operation. You can feel his pain as he shouts words of love he has never spoken before to Payal! The ending is abrupt and made me cringe as the reality of his actions hit me, but upon reflection, it suited Sundar's disposition, his guilt for betraying Payal, and his passion to redeem himself to the woman he loves. Well-written, well-played and bittersweet indeed.
