The film 'Satyaprem Ki Katha,' featuring Kartik Aaryan and Kiara Advani, hit the screens on Thursday, June 29. This musical romantic drama received a favourable reception from both the audience and critics and had a good start at the box office. It serves as the second collaboration for Kartik and Kiara following the success of their blockbuster 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2.' Kiara, who has been receiving praise for her performance, expressed her gratitude and emotions on social media, feeling overwhelmed by the love she has received.

On Friday, Kiara took to her Instagram stories, revealing she felt emotional after reading the reviews of SatyaPrem Ki Katha and sharing that Katha is a character that is close to her heart. She wrote, "Feeling extremely emotional reading all the reviews. Katha has been a very special character to me with a crucial message and today seeing you all give her so much love makes my heart so full (sic)."

Recently, Sidharth Malhotra reviewed Kiara's performance in Satyaprem Ki Katha. The Mission Majnu actor took to his Instagram stories and wrote, "A love story with a relevant social message, filled with great performances from the entire cast but Katha you have my heart. @kiaraaliaadvani so Happy that you chose to play this character. Such an impactful and nuanced performance. Kudos to you and the entire team @kartikaaryan @nadiadwalagrandson #SatyaPremKiKatha."

For the unversed, the film was previously titled 'Satya Narayan Ki Katha', but it was later changed to avoid hurting anyone's sentiments following public backlash. The director, Sameer Vidwans, had released an official statement about the change.

The statement read: "A title of the film is something that emerges organically through the creative process. We have taken a decision to change the title of our recently announced film 'Satyanarayan Ki Katha' to avoid hurting sentiments, even if that's purely unintentional. Producers of the film and the creative team also are in complete support of this decision. We will be announcing a new title for our love story in the due course of our journey. Sincerely, Sameer Vidwans."

The musical romantic drama is helmed by Sameer Vidwans. The film is jointly produced by Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment and Namah Pictures and stars Kartik Aaryan and Kiara Advani in the lead roles. It also stars Gajraj Rao and Supriya Pathak in pivotal roles. It was released on June 29, 2023.
