Pyaar Kiya To Darna Kya

Such a great movie,Nostalgia feelings all time die hard fan of Bhaijaan😘

If you want to blame Salman Khan's shirtless scenes, this is where the flag was planted - in O O Jaane Jana :)

Pyaar Kiya To Darna Kya remains a dazzling example of the classic Bollywood romantic formula. To me the movie was 8/10 when I saw it FDFS, and still feels like a beloved 7/10 nearly 30 years later... a timeless classic.

This film is a fascinating piece of cinema history, marking a powerful collaboration for the "Khan"daan, with Sohail directing and brothers Salman and Arbaaz defining the film's central conflict.

Salman Khan is effortlessly magnetic as Suraj, but the true brilliance lies in his chemistry with Kajol, a pairing so electric that one can't help but wish they had been paired again. Furthermore, the picture is fortified by the screen presence of Dharmendra, who carries his role really well, lending a much-needed layer of maturity and dignity to the family anchor.

The visual aesthetic is a burst of color, supported by crisp cinematography that enhances its "feel-good" appeal.

Thank you for sharing your high regard for this film. That longevity rating of 7/10 after nearly 30 years is a true testament to its rewatch value and feel-good charm!

Export to Sheets (2) 200-Word Engaging & Sharp Review for IMDb Post The 90s Romance That Still Feels Fresh (Initial 8/10, Rewatch 7/10)

"Pyaar Kiya To Darna Kya" is the definition of a feel-good, rewatchable classic. Directed with a lively pace by Sohail Khan, this film is the ultimate 90s romantic comedy package. It holds a firm 8/10 as a genre entry, and its ability to still entertain nearly 30 years later with a 7/10 rewatch score is its greatest achievement.

The core strength lies in its star power and fantastic music. The soundtrack, featuring iconic dance anthems and soulful melodies, is timeless and the movie's energy rarely flags.

While the final act falls into some predictable Bollywood tropes, and the secondary villain plot is conventional, it never loses its heart.

This is pure, unadulterated 90s joy.

An enjoyable 1st half but close to unwatchable in the 2nd barring a few scenes involving the lead stars. The presence of Salman and Kajol in the end is the only thing that somewhat lifts this movie up. Salman is his usual funny/wacky self and it was fun to see the old Salman for a change. Since I was in India when PKTDK released I can safely say Salman's popularity hit its peak w/ this movie. 'O O Jaane Jaana' was a rage and physique/looks wise he has probably never looked better. But he isn't the TOP performer of the movie, Kajol is. She looks gorgeous(yet simple) and takes full advantage of being the only well developed character in the entire movie. I wish she had more to do because everything else about PKTDK is one BIG annoying cliché. For a romantic comedy there's hardly any romance. Hardly any face-to-face interaction between Salman and Kajol(when did they fall in love?) and this hurts BIG TIME because there isn't much chemistry between the two.

So anyway, I've no clue what made me watch this mediocre flick in 2006 but I did enjoy seeing Salman and Kajol. 1998 was a time where both were at the top of their game. A pity PKTDK had such a mediocre script because both stars happen to be excellent romantic actors.

Watch it if you're a really, really BIG fan of Salman or Kajol.

Muskaan (played by Kajol) is an orphan being raised by her uncle (Dharmendra) and overly-protective brother (Arbaaz Khan). She goes away to college and is wooed and won by Suraj (Salman Khan), but her brother doesn't approve.

This is a sweet romantic comedy with two particularly good songs and some fun choreography. The plot, while predictable, is enjoyable. The chemistry between Kajol and Arbaaz Khan was a bit more than should be for siblings at times, which gave the first of the movie an odd feel. Salman Khan was charming, as usual, and did well in his silly role. Overall, it's a fun, lighthearted, and entertaining film.

Well everyone is well aware about how Salman Khan had made nation crazy with his shirtless performance on Oh Oh Jane Jana song. This movie is super fun to watch! Salman Khan's naughty & simple andaaz in movie takes over you completely.
