SatyaPrem Ki Katha

Not a bad movie for a one-time watch, but the ending left much to be desired. It was too abrupt and somewhat anticlimactic. The conclusion could have been executed more effectively and thoughtfully. It almost felt like the movie's creator realized it had been dragged out and decided to wrap it up hastily.

The movie touches upon a significant and pertinent theme - the importance of respecting the word "No." It conveys a powerful message that "No" should always mean "No," irrespective of how open-minded you may be. Trust can be shattered by the person you trust the most.

Unfortunately, Shikha Talsania and Supriya Pathak had very limited roles in the film, with hardly any lines or screen time.

Kartik Aryan delivered a commendable performance, once again proving his ability to shine in every scene he's in.

Kiara Advani portrayed her character boldly and stayed true to the script.

Watching OMG2 and this in the last couple of weeks is really making me contemplate my decision of not taking the present Bollywood seriously.

A much needed topic and social message delivered almost perfectly without much overacting or overdramatization in the process. The way the Hindi cinema industry is embracing such non-cliched "hatke" stories not concerning much about the profit or blockbuster status really makes the budding cinephile in me happy.

Not a fan of Kartik Aryan but he really impressed with his acting and justified portrayal of a low wit ordinary boy.

Kiara Advani is exceptional (IMO she is even better than in Shershah) with her range. Her raw acting and expressions in the climax is one of the best I have seen in Bollywood in a long time.

It manages to hit the ball home right from how it slowly builds up to finally culminate in the credits with a strong textual message.

It would be a 4/5 except for the lacklustre dance numbers, few underutilised characters and an awful rendition of Pasoori !!

Will end with quoting Jauhari ji from MiH S2 "lekin aab agar kiske sath aisa hoga toh dhindora peetna chahiye".

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.
