Reviews
"Behavior staged Bollywood melodrama as remake of a film by Mani Ratnam ( Alai Payuthey ", 2000 ), which accommodates only hard pace and was made over long distances in the description of the marriage everyday. Neither directorial still theatrically interesting arises despite the usual vocal - and dancing a neat boredom ".
"It is a wonderfully filmed, very touching love story that starts where other Bollywood films often stop. The marriage will not be described as heaven on earth, but as a fragile, but ultimately rewarding construct that needed much care - and where there are so many disputes. Insofar Saathiya is more realistic than the Bollywood gloss products. "
