User Reviews

one of the FINEST ROMANTIC MOVIE ever ::

Maine Pyar Kiya. Yes, I do. " Maine Pyar Kiya " is not just a family-romantic movie, but also a historical debut of Salman and Bhagyashree. They both made an amazing chemistry that will blow your mind.

The script is so wonderful that anyone will love it. The director did a wonderful job. The casting is also a perfect match for the plot.

The movie will remind your past love life if you have one. Once there was "LOVE" when two people loved each other for their inner loveliness, not for the physical needs. The plot shows that from the beginning to the end. No filthiness are shown in the movie.

Finally I will give a 9 for this amazing movie.
