Theen Maar Reviews

Theenmaar is a telugu film starring Pawan Kalyan and Trisha in lead roles. The film is a remake of Hindi film Love Aaj Kal.

TOI review:

After a debacle like "Komaram Puli", Pawan Kalyan, who has been beating around the bush in the name of socially responsible films for a while now, is finally back to doing what he does best — entertain! "Theen Maar", the romantic entertainer that's a remake of the hit Hindi flick "Love Aaj Kal" marks a comeback of sorts for Pawan, who looks fit, young and delivers a performance that packs a punch.

The highlights of the film are Trivikram Srinivas' dialogues and Mani Sharma's music. Kudos to director Jayant Paranjee; it's not an easy task to take an acclaimed original and remake it to suit local sensibilities without ruining the real flavour.

Finally, a nice, breezy mid-summer entertainer!

The Hindu Review:

Teen Maar is a remake of Hindi Love Aaj Kal that had Deepika Padukone and Saif Ali Khan. Now, that bit of information is out of our way, we can step into the theatre and soak in the magic of Telugu cinema after a long time.

Pavan Kalyan sticks to his usual mannerisms and dance steps, but he incorporates new ideas and what we get is a mellower version of Pavan. Though her role is not as well fleshed out as Deepika's in Love Aaj Kal, Trisha grows beyond doll like role she initially essays. She lets her eyes do the talking. Paresh Rawal is riot as a nosey interloper. Ali has a cameo which is a blink and miss role and he creates a laugh fest.

This movie is another shot at giving the multiplex treatment, so, be warned, this movie may not appeal to people who are used to the standard fare dished out by Telugu cinema directors.
