Pyar in War or War in Pyar-Review

‘Pyar in War or ‘War in Pyar' that should be decided by you as a audience to this week released movie ‘Meravanige'. Let me first tell you the story line.

Vijay(Prajwal Devaraj) and Nandita(Andrita Rai), who are college mates, but both stats to fight when they come face-to-face. Vijay's father Banuchandar an Assistant Commissioner of Police who arrest rowdy Bashee's brother. This makes Basheer to kidnap Vijay and Nandita. They miss in the forest when they take ‘procession' in the forest they fall in love, this is the first storyline.

Second storyline is simple Vijay parents sees Nandita in an party and decides to get marry with Vijay. This comes to the knowledge of Vijay and Nandita and the decides to meet each other. Both put together is the story of Hatrick Director's ‘Meravanige'.

After a super-success from the films ‘Akash' and ‘Arasu' director Mahesh has chosen a good storyline but has failed to decide in script, except this the movie seems good. Prajwal Devaraj has done superb, Debutant actress Andrita Rai is best ‘suited' to Prajwal, but she yet to learn more. Dialogue should have written much more better, V.Manohar's music gives relief, but music seems some where heard before, in that ‘Pathagadanthe na haara balle…. Gives relief. Camerawork by Mahesh Talkad is good.

As far as you like new actress Andrita Rai and Prajwal Devaraj you will not miss this move. But after watching it you may get confusion between ‘Pyar in War' and ‘War in Pyar'.
