1990
Rich boy, poor girl... The only difference, their fathers were friends once. Rich boy's father rejects and insults poor girl and her father. But love triumphs, rich boy breaks rocks to earn a living and melts prospective father-in-law's heart. Eventually, their love even unites the two fathers.

Sepia
A stale plot. But, in true Rajshri tradition, debutant director Sooraj Barjatya turns a simple love story into a heady, extravagant romance. It is the biggest hit of 1990. The film is dubbed in English and Spanish.
The Los Angeles Times had this to say: 'Mainstream Indian audiences aren't looking for Satyajit Ray's eloquent social realism, but pure escape from life's hardships and they demand their money's worth.'

Uncut
Sooraj Barjatya directs the film when he is only 24. At a time when video piracy and satellite television threatens the survival of the Hindi film industry, Maine Pyaar Kiya instills confidence and brings viewers back to the cinema halls.
