Satyaprem Ki Katha

Satyaprem ki Katha or SKP is supposed to be a romantic film but it actually carries a very serious topic for discussion.

The film starts off very average with some poor comedy scenes and some forgettable dance numbers but after 30 mins , the film starts to sail and sails at full speed revealing some shocking facts about Katha.

Let's talk about how maturely the director has churned out this sweet romantic film. The film never jumps to kissing or such things but very slowly and steadily and very carefully moved the romantic track forward and knowing the story of Katha , this kind of treatment is very mature and needed. A blank faced Kiara slowly and steadily shifts to a more happy joyful faced Kiara and the transition is done beautifully!!!

Dealing with the story of Katha, SatyaPrem aka Sattu also is handed a very mature character, never really jumping to doing odd stuff but makes sure he slowly and steadily and carefully takes steps forward in comforting and solacing Katha and this is where the beautiful chemistry arises between them that never never never felt forced but comes naturally and you start to get invested in their love story . Kudos to Sameer Vidhwans for handling this sensitive romantic film so well. These days romantic films have a tendency to jump too quickly to adult scenes but not this one. FOR THE LOVE STORY AND THE SERIOUS TOPIC , KUDOS TO THE MAKERS!!

However, it's not perfect. The comedy is a hit and miss especially the dysfunctional comedy in the first 30 mins. Few comic sequences later do make you grin but overall, i felt these sequences could have been reduced and hence reduce the overall running length of the film. The songs are the biggest negative point imo. They are placed badly , and yeah, the nightmare is true, Pasoori Nu is actually present right inside the film and doesn't fit the sequence where it is presented at all. You see a film like Akash Vaani where there was a similar sequence in the snow with the beautiful song Padh Gaye Ji and it suited the sequence so well. Wished a similar kind of song was present in that sequence in this film. Also, the climax , the Puja sequence, very poorly ended!! It almost felt the film was about a start a new chapter (or rather you would feel the climax is about to start there ) and to my utter disappointment, the film actually ended there (meaning it was not the start of the climax but the end of the film there) !! A courtroom sequence would have done so much more justice to the ending instead of an abrupt ending.

Performance. Kiara Advani is the star of the show . Her transition from a depressed lady to a happy joyful comfortable lady is just flawless. She nails the emotional scenes in this film. Next is Kartik who handles a mature character very well and brings in the natural innocence he brings with every such character he plays . His transition from being a zero to a hero is commendable. His scenes with Kiara are so beautiful and heartwarming. Gajraj rao shares a terrific chemistry with Kartik .

Overall, SKP is a must watch. I don't know how you guys tolerated TJMM but SKP is a million times better than that film in terms of chemistry and love angle.

"Satyaprem ki Katha" is an engaging film that combines a good social message with mature acting and exceptional performances from its lead actors. Kartik Aryan delivers a commendable portrayal, showcasing his growth as an actor with his nuanced and mature performance. However, it is Kiara Advani who steals the show with her outstanding performance, captivating the audience with her emotional range and impeccable acting skills.

The supporting cast also deserves special mention, particularly Gajraj and Supriya Pathak, who deliver strong performances in their respective roles. Their presence adds depth and authenticity to the storyline, enhancing the overall cinematic experience.

One of the movie's strengths lies in its fast-forward story, which keeps the viewers hooked from start to finish. The narrative is paced well, allowing for seamless transitions between different phases of the characters' lives. The film effectively conveys its social message, highlighting important issues that resonate with the audience.

However, despite its many positive aspects, story falls short in its ending. The conclusion feels somewhat rushed and doesn't provide the closure or satisfaction one would expect after investing in the characters and their journeys.

In summary, "Satyaprem ki Katha" is a movie with a good social message, boasting mature acting from Kartik Aryan and an outstanding performance from Kiara Advani. The film benefits from a strong supporting cast, including Gajraj and Supriya Pathak, who deliver notable performances. The fast-forward story keeps the viewers engaged, but the unsatisfying ending dampens the overall impact of the film. Nonetheless, this is still worth watching for its compelling performances and thought-provoking themes.

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.

The cinematography was well done. Nice colours throughout the film.

The story was very basic and full of usual cliche. Nothing new to be remembered.

What bother me in that film was the humour. The joke was so childish. Even the main character acted like a child most of the time. It was painful to watch.

The actress did a good job however ad she didn't have to make jokes.

In the first half of the film, the actress didn't like the main actor and I dont blame her for it.

As I'm from Western Europe, perhaps it's the difference in culture that makes me cringe every time they delivered their lines.

I forget about this movie as soon as I left the screen.

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.
