When the movie was out, it was a big hit and appreciated by many.
Tastes do change over time, it may seem like 'shit' to some now.
But one cannot deny that Rajshri films have produced many family oriented movies and people always look forward to their movies.

It's such a regressive film and did it even have a storyline!?

I swear 80% of the film was just a cheese-fest with the boy and girl meeting and falling in love with no twists and turns. It was just a plateau until in the last, what 30 minutes-ish, the fire incident occurs? The only thing that was likeable for me was Shahid-Amrita's chemistry but other than that, meh.

I wouldn't say it's a bad film, but still very average.

Not surprising considering the current situation of the society we live in. This is another example to show the regressive state we're living in. Having a restricted view and dogmatism often leads to such results.

how was vivah regressive??
Accepting a girl and marrying her whose body is 80 percent burnt?
Fulfilling his promise?
How many men would do that in the so called modern India?
The film just showed the journey of an marraige of 2 completely 2 strangers. It never said that love marraige is wrong

I guess, people relate to this movie more so because in India we have the custom of arrange marriages and bride and groom get to know each other after they are engaged.. If it makes sense..
Like how movies like Yaariyan clicked with youngsters and movies like grand masti appealed to masses.. They don't have to make sense, which majority of the movies don't anyway.. 😃

Oh and if a girl behaving too shy/sweet/coy is sickening then how about one hero fighting 100 gundas😉 😆

To each his own policy😎

Read and comprehend.

Sweet demure or coy act of the woman was sickening to an extent but the regressive nature of the movie puts off anyone.

The incidences in the movie were not what exactly you call progressive either. The aunt discourages the fair skinned niece and looks down on her own daughter who happens to be brown.Makes comments which would give push to the already downtrodden society deeper into the parochial way of judging by color. Is that what you would call progressive? And not once in the movie does the writer seem to knock sense into the viewers and make the aunt repent and be ashamed of her acts.

Poonam is turned into an extremely annoying demure woman who wouldn't want to look up at her engaged partner, believes in keeping her head bowed before the elders. Like gone are the days where women would sacrifice for their family constantly, keep low with their ambitions, would put up with the ungrateful and hateful remarks of the family just to see the family remain under the same roof. Like for just once Poonam raises her voice to let her aunt know her mistakes. And don't give me the shit the movie is set in so and so village, cos it wasn't. LOL I can't believe people still want to live in the out dated stuff of the 80's practising color preaching and bounded by family traditions. What is more surprising is that they point out to others to that they are not capable of understanding the nature of arranged marriages.And Then they go around advocating women rights, preaching how women are equal to men yet would want to see this kind of repulsive stuff.

The only thing that didn't cut down to being regressive is the last part where the guy accepts her.
