Maine Pyar Kiya Review
Movie Story
Naveen (Pradeep Ryan) is a software employee flirts with every girl but fails to woo stunning HR Manager (Komal Jha) in the office. A new girl Shalini (Isha Talwar) joins the office is surprisingly his childhood classmate. Owing to bitter past, Naveen keeps his identity under wraps and develops fresh and romantic relationship with Shalini. When the girl makes a decision to accept his love, she gets to know the truth about Naveen. The flashback episode of Shalini’s uncle (Satyadev) and his love interest (Madhumitha) forms the major crux of the film.

Analysis
Director Pradeep Maadugula picked a regular story, although he should have worked more on screenplay of first half which runs at dead slow pace. However his treatment in second half is fascinating. He dealt the flashback episodes persuasively. You need to wait patiently till the end of first half to experience retro romance in second half. Then real torture starts when Posani Krishna Murali enters as gay. His episodes were misfired and spoiled the smooth journey in second half.
Satyadev is surprising factor as he performed like a well matured artist as young guy and as middle age man. He will have bright future if he picks challenging roles like what he got in the movie. Madhumitha was appealing and got good, short role. Pradeep Betno and Isha Talwar are pretty average. While Pradeep Betno gave odd expressions and didn’t bother of delivering dialogues rightly, Isha Talwar was mostly seen with same expression throughout the movie. She got a very brief role.
Komal Jha was glamorous and comedian Venu provided little laughs. Other artists like Posani, Viva Harsha were wasted completely.Vishweshwar S V cinematography is major asset while V Pradeep Kumar’s songs and background score were middling. Production values were decent.
Overall, Maine Pyar Kiya is not a worth watch movie in theaters.
Movie Result: Flop
