Kartik Aaryan got a role in the movie Akaash Vaani very early in his career. The film was directed by Luv Ranjan, who was instrumental in turning Kartik into a star. It featured a quirky plot and handled a delicate subject matter with skill. It was a dramatic contrast to the films that Ranjan and Aryan were eventually linked to, and Akaash Vaani did not break any records at the box office while dealing with a subject that was not previously so freely treated in mainstream Hindi cinema. Satyaprem Ki Katha, Kartik Aaryan's most recent film, does not follow similar themes. The film, directed by Sameer Vidvans, is mounted on a grand scale and marketed as a classic Bollywood romance. It discusses consent dates and shows Aaryan evolving from a loser to a hero over the course of the narrative.

Satyaprem Ki Katha, written by Karan Shrikant Sharma, is based in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, where the characters frequently break into Gujarati lines (without any subtitles provided in between) and songs. It depicts a fairly progressive world where the women rule at least in Satyaprem's (Kartik Aaryan) household and the women are in charge. Being unemployed and without any goals other than to wed Katha (Kiara Advani), Sattu spends his time doing tasks around the house and complaining with his family about how uninterested they are in his marriage. While his father (Gajraj Rao) and son stay at home performing domestic chores, his mother (Supriya Pathak Kapur) and sister (Shikha Talsania) make the majority of the family's income.

When Sattu first sees Katha performing at one of the Dandiya nights, he falls head over heels in love with her. Sattu has little possibility of being in Katha's life because she comes from a wealthy family and has a wealthy lover. However, things take a dramatic turn a year later when Katha finds herself consenting to marry Sattu under pressure and blackmail from her father. Their worlds are not the same. He is poor; she is. The match seems strange because she is educated and has experience in the workforce while he has never had a job strange right away. When Katha opens up to Sattu about her turbulent history, things become even more difficult and could endanger their marriage and future together.

Aaryan portrays the clumsy idiot Sattu, who is shown as a man with no ill intent and who is unable to deceive. He may not have much worldly experience and is content to admire his wife only from afar, but he is aware of when to speak out and for whom. In many of his films over the years, Aaryan has portrayed the dominant lover boy who is a little tone-deaf. Misogynistic claims have been made about his films. And despite the fact that he is now a celebrity, he has not been able to totally shake off the perception that he is merely an actor who portrays characters

who typically portray a sexist dude in his movies. Satyaprem Ki Katha works very hard to dispel that impression. He is obviously the victim in this situation because the women in his life his mother, sister, and wife are stronger and more opinionated than he is. Nevertheless, he ends up taking the side of people who have been harmed and giving a few speeches on topics like consent, the decriminalization of suicide, and date rape.

The first half of the movie is terrible, but the second part of the movie credibly addresses the subject of date rape and consent. To make the movie hilarious, the writers try to insert some absurd lines, but they fall flat. I nearly wanted to comprehend right away up until the interval and recognize the direction the plot was taking. Only in the second half of the movie, where Kiara Advani has plenty of opportunity to shine, does the plot really come together. Her character calls for a certain amount of restraint, and Advani, who last year gave us a run of blockbuster blockbusters, gives a nuanced performance. Advani has an ethereal appearance, and her portrayal of a woman with a terrible past touches your heart. In a few scenes, she shines more than Aaryan.

But the writing in the movie is inconsistent. There are gaps in the story. Why Sattu's mother and sister treat him so poorly is a mystery to some. The plot takes a long time to develop in the first half, and Aaryan's performance also lacks conviction

The second half of the movie, however, when the rape issue is first brought up and subsequently resolved, greatly atones the first half's flaws. There are way too many songs, which primarily interfere with the story and make the 2-hour, 20-minute movie a little tedious. I was also perplexed as to why the movie needed to have so many Gujarati dialogues. Although it is true that the characters are from the state, and it is well known, why to employ the regional dialect in a Hindi movie?

The characters include a few that are outright rude. Advani's father, played by actor Siddharth Randeria, often takes advantage of her. I wasn't even sure why Supriya Pathak Kapur's character was such a nasty, cruel mother Then, Gajraj Rao's persona also comes out as having narrow viewpoints. The characterizations never really get to the point and raise a lot of issues.

Satyaprem Ki Katha belongs to the extremely unusual category of films that have a bad first half and a good second half.
