Minsaara Kanavu (1997) Reviews
its the same film
actually you've got it wrong this film was first made in Tamil as Minsara Kanavu but due to its success it was dubbed in Telugu as Merupu Kalalu and Hindi Sapnay so thats why its the same as Sapnay , Sapnay is a dubbed version of Minsara Kanavu. The film was a Major success and the music won the music composer A.R Rahman Best Music Director award for the second time after the hit Roja,also Prabhu Deva won the Silver Lotus Award for Best Choreography . this film is a classic by any account and definitely worth a watch ...the music is heavenly and the acting by Kajol ,Arivind Samy and Prabhu Deva is filled with chemistry and connection ....a must see
beautiful
I have to say this is one of the finest stories in India cinema. The acting is stellar. Kajol is fantastic, and i enjoy her more playing roles that are out of her norm. The one thing i have to say about this movie is that the music is fantastic. The other thing, its a very colorful and hilarious movie and a bit of a tear jerker towards the end. Although one many not recognize the other lead actors, although they are quite famous in the south. I think the ambiguity that these actors bring works in the movies favor. The musical numbers are very well directed, and they transport you into another world. Especially the song "chanda re" it is beautifully choreographed. You will definitely be humming to the movies tune long after you have watched it.
Well done, great dancing, not stereotypical
Finally, a recent movie about Catholics that isn't bending to the RSS-supported negative stereotype! Perhaps that's because it was made in the south, another place not looked upon too kindly by Hindutvadis. Kajol wants to be a nun, not because of western brainwashing or because she wants to hide from the world (as in yeh zindagi ka safar), but because she feels drawn to God and sees the church's emphasis on social work as something she really wants to have a part in. (Also doesn't want the shackles of marriage.) She looks stunning, as always -- she outshines her cousin (Rani) everywhere she goes. She is loved first by Thomas (Aravindsami plus 30 lbs and a whole lot of whitening creams since Bombay 2 years earlier?) and then by Deva (Prabudeva), who was sent by Thomas to woo her in his stead (very Shakespearean). There is a breathtaking semi-salsa dance scene with Kajol and Prabudeva, where he really proves his talent. Kajol, loves the church, is loved by two men who are friends.... which will she choose? You are really kept in suspense until the end!
Best Romantic,Comedy Film Ever
I have seen the movie in telugu version Merupu Kalalu movie name.It was dubbed in telugu and Hindi also. when i was teenage passionate about this movie songs and so tempted music by AR Rahman and songs super hit. Love everything in movie, can't miss each one frame beautiful love story between three youngsters. Every character played different way to express best scenes and especially about Kajol actress and Prabhudeva and AR Rahman Music. I have been big fan of Kajol since Kuch kuch hota hai movie she is amazing actress and found few movies very such big hit in 2000s. Story is completely moving around one Girl and love story between two guys really much appreciate story narration. Prabhu deva dance in songs are big asset. A Girl wants to become Nun and how her life is turned, its a super story screenplay. AVM productions presented in golden jublee celebrations they don't forget this movie ever. Its a such huge big hit to All Star Casting Director and Music Director. so many awards won especially Vennelave Vennelave song its a ultimate song ever and beautiful choreography got a national award. Any way as a big fan of kajol i satisfied with movie lot and lot and found best romantic musical love story.
Music is in the air...
This movie, my all time favorite... The very soul of the movie is, Music... A.R.Rahman have done his very best in producing music such as Vennilave Vennilave... Strawberry Kannae song, has been my all time favorite... Choreography is definitely something one will cherish for... Such a colorful movie and not the usual flicks in tamil cinema that were present around the same timeline! I have seen once in theater, I have seen tens on TV's and I have seen it hundreds on my computer, and i will watch it for thousands! Why? it's not just a movie for me, its the timeline, that I can very much relate and re-stroke my precious childhood memories!
