A still from the film

SatyaPrem Ki Katha
U/A: Drama, romance
Dir: Sameer Vidwans
Cast: Kartik Aaryan, Kiara Advani
Rating: 3/5

SatyaPrem Ki Katha opens with our hero dreaming about being a Gujju pataka (Casanova), surrounded by a bevy of beauties hoping to marry him, until he is rudely woken up and kicked back into reality by his father. Satyaprem, aka Sattu (Kartik Aaryan), has failed his LLB exams and is jobless. While household chores keep him busy, he has to fight ‘maa’ Diwali (Supriya Pathak Kapur) and ‘behen’ Sejal’s (Shikha Talsania) barbs. His father, Narayan (Gajraj Rao), is his only confidante, always encouraging him to follow his heart—Katha (Kiara Advani). It was love at first sight for Sattu, who saw Katha at a garba, albeit with her boyfriend. Never mind that she is way out of Sattu’s league.

Little does Sattu know that his love story is not going to be a bed of roses, even when Katha’s parents, Harikishen (Siddharth Randeria) and Rasna (Anooradha Patel), come to him with a marriage proposal. Saying anything more would be revealing too much. Suffice to say that the narrative is different from what the trailer lets on. Under all the Gujarati fun and fluff, the drama and twists pave the way for a strong message.
