Bollywood is a significant part of Indian cinema, producing many films. Some movies become popular soon after their release, others may not do well financially, and some are kept in memories even after many months of their release. One such underrated film is ‘Sanam Teri Kasam,’ released in 2016. Radhika Rao and Vinay Sapru directed the film. It includes fresh faces, like Harshvardhan Rane and Mawra Hocane, who played a significant role in this film.
The story is inspired by Erich Segal’s ‘Love Story,’ but with a unique twist from the directors. The story follows Saraswati, or Saru, who is kicked out by her father. She finds help from a kind young man named Inder, and they fall in love. Despite facing challenges that separate them, they ultimately reunite.
Here are five convincing reasons to catch the love story ‘Sanam Teri Kasam’ during its re-release this Valentine’s Week.
1. New Star Cast
The cast of this film may not have famous Bollywood names, but they shine with their natural performances. Harshvardhan Rane, a well-known model, makes his acting debut, while Mawra Hocane from Pakistan adds a fresh touch to the love story, surprising audiences who aren’t familiar with their work.
2. Tale Of Introverts
Saru and Inder are both people who find it hard to share their feelings. Saru struggles to let her crush at work know how she feels, and Inder has kept his feelings for Saru hidden for a long time. Interestingly, in this love story, neither of them is the outgoing type; they both tend to keep their true emotions to themselves and showcase the quality of introvertness.
3. Expressing Love
Love has its own challenges. First, you must express your feelings and then seek your family’s approval. Sometimes, fate can create distance, but overcoming these obstacles can bring you closer together. After facing many trials, Saru and Inder finally get married.
4. Beautiful Cinematography
Cinematographer Chirantan Das has brought an incredible visual experience to the film, combining vibrant colours with moments of deep emotion. One of the many beautiful captures, the opening scene, featuring Inder standing beneath a blossoming cherry tree, is so stunning that it looks like a work of art.
5. Tale Of Opposite Poles
Love stories often unite unlikely couples. Saru is clumsy and awkward, while Inder is charming and confident. Despite their differences, they find a connection when their paths cross. In ‘Sanam Teri Kasam,’ the not-so-attractive Saru falls for the handsome Inder and wins his love.
