Satyaprem Ki Katha

I was pleasantly surprised by Satyaprem Ki Katha. A very mature take on love, marriage and relationships underlining a social taboo.

The film starts on a light note but gets serious as it progresses. Performances elevate the film and both the leads shine. This is one of the best performances from Kartik Aaryan. But it is Kiara Advani who steals the show. She not only looks breathtakingly beautiful but delivers a brilliant performance as well. What an actress she has proved to be!

Music is pretty good too with Le Aaunga sung by Arijit Singh being the best of the lot. Amongst the rest Aaj Ke Baad is the one you carry along with you.

Director Sameer Vidwans makes an impressive debut in Hindi cinema. This hatke romantic comedy certainly deserves a watch.

A love story with the heart in the right place that's Satyaprem Ki Katha. It is engaging, and entertaining performances from all characters..

Kiara & Kartik worked fine.

Satya Prem ki Katha is a genuine love story with some great music, a light screenplay, and an emotional plot, it is not only RomCom.

Kartik and Kiara Advani each has a strong appearance and on-screen connection.

The supporting actors did good jobs with their parts.

Overall, it is a well-made film that is good Infront of Some Bollywood Rom-Com kinda movies.

This Movie showed a well known but rarely talked topic and a message for orthodox society.

Movie Ends fine.

Review of Satyaprem Ki Katha by itsbymayank - Mayank Bharat Bhushan Louteriya.

Wow. This movie isn't what anyone expects it to be. I just loved how the movie changes genre with one twist mid way through the movie. Such a thought provoking drama disguised as a rom com. It will certainly not be an easy watch for anyone who is expecting a cute romantic comedy but will delight anyone who wants to see something new and relevant.

This is perhaps Kiara's best acted movie and even Karthik Aryan who is his usual self in the first half raises his game in the second half of the movie. Supriya Pathak is delightful in the movie and Gajraj Rao gives another terrific performance. The story is completely fresh and the direction of such a sensitive topic is masterful. The movie is applause-worthy. I hope it does well.

The first half is horrendous, they tried to incorporate comedic elements to incite laughter, but they largely fell flat. Neither the one-liners nor the mannerisms of Kartik Aaryan could salvage anything redeemable.

Speaking of Kartik, I think he is still stuck in his Pyaar Ka Punchnama role, repeating the same set of quirks over and over again. If he really wishes to be called a competent actor, he must come out of his shell and broaden his horizons. The same set of expressions and the same way of delivering his lines (Like he has been doing since his debut) will only cut it short term.

Now coming back to the movie: following a dreadful first half, I began to grow impatient and was losing hope, but then the interval block came as a glimmer of hope, it brought some promises, and luckily, the proceedings got significantly better in the second half, albeit the ending once again came across as being overly preachy and stingingly pretentious.

I'm all up for messaging, especially one that holds importance and is relevant to modern-day society, but that message needs to be communicated in a fitting fashion. Or else, the essence could get lost, and it would not leave the intended impression, and that's exactly what happened here.

And I would like to put the blame not only on the ambitionless direction but also on the writing, which is burdened with incompetence, especially regarding its characterisations. Barring Kartik and Kiara, every other major character, for some odd reason, felt so unsure about themselves, dithering in their actions and how they carry themselves.

The saving grace was Kiara; she once again proved her mettle and played this complex part with utmost sincerity and conviction. I wish we would have seen more of her.

Satyaprem Ki Katha is a heartfelt love story that resonates deeply. With its engaging narrative and captivating performances, this film truly stands out. It not only boasts great music and memorable songs but also presents a unique blend of romance and comedy.

The chemistry between Kiara and Kartik is simply remarkable, leaving a lasting impression on the audience. Moreover, the film's screenplay strikes a perfect balance between lightheartedness and emotional depth, making it much more than just a typical romantic comedy.

The supporting actors deliver commendable performances, adding depth and nuance to their respective roles. Collectively, the cast contributes to the overall success of the movie.

Satyaprem Ki Katha sheds light on a well-known yet rarely discussed topic, serving as a powerful message for a society bound by orthodoxy. It tackles the subject matter with sensitivity and addresses important societal issues.

While Satyaprem Ki Katha has its strengths, it is not without flaws. One of the shortcomings is that at times it diverts from its central idea, causing some inconsistency in the storytelling. This can occasionally detract from the overall impact of the film.

Furthermore, although the ending of the movie wraps up the narrative, there is a sense that it could have been better executed. It feels somewhat rushed and lacks the finesse that one would hope for in a satisfying conclusion. This rushed ending can leave viewers wanting more and may not do justice to the emotional journey depicted throughout the film.

It's important to acknowledge that while Satyaprem Ki Katha has its imperfections, it still manages to deliver an engaging story, remarkable performances, and memorable music. The film's flaws, such as the diversion from the central idea and the hurried ending, should be considered in the overall evaluation, but they don't overshadow its positive aspects.
