Pyaar Tune Kya Kiya is a 2001 Indian Hindi language film directed by Rajat Mukherjee and produced by Ram Gopal Varma, and starred Fardeen Khan, Urmila Matondkar and Sonali Kulkarni.[1]
Jai (Fardeen Khan) is a fashion photographer, happily married to Geeta (Sonali Kulkarni). Riya (Urmila) is a budding model whom Jai gets to shoot. The twosome gets close during the photo sessions and the increasing proximity between them turns into love. Geeta comes to know of Jai’s clandestine relationship with Riya and his libertine ways. Jai asks for forgiveness when Geeta confronts him. But Riya is madly obsessed with Jai and is prepared to go to any length to get him in her life, even if that means committing suicide or getting rid of Geeta forever.[3]
Synopsis
Jai (Fardeen Khan) is a fashion photographer, happily married to Geeta (Sonali Kulkarni). In order to launch their magazine, his boss Wispy asks him to go to Goa and collect pictures of beautiful sceneries for their cover. While in Goa, he comes across a beautiful young woman, Ria Jaiswal (Urmila Matondkar) doing yoga on the beach and without her permission snaps some pictures of her and later displays them on their cover. The magazine becomes a huge hit because of those pictures. Wispy wants Ria to model for their magazine but she refuses because she is angry that Jai displayed her pictures without her permission. Somehow Jai manages to convince her to model for their magazine. The modelling starts and Ria begins to fall in love with Jai. Her father (Suresh Oberoi) who always wanted to get her married is really happy that her daughter is finally in love (he doesn't know its Jai). Ria, in order to talk to Jai about their marriage, goes to his house and gets a shocking surprise because Jai is already married to Geeta (Sonali Kulkarni). Being a stubborn daughter and always having her way, she couldn't believe the fact that the guy she loved was already married. When a shaken Geeta opts for herself out of wedlock, Jai promises to change his ways. On other hand, Riya is too possessive of Jai. She even makes a suicidal attempt to end her life. She also stalks Geeta to take her away from Jai’s life forever.[3]
Pre-Production
This film showcases Urmila in a new sassy avatar with her hair finely cropped to shoulders. Grapevine has it that she herself created the look of her character in the film, from selecting her clothes to losing weight to match the appearance of her character in the film.[3] Her new swanky hairdo and slinky clothes were talk of the town even before the film’s release.[4]

Review
“All love stories make you fall in love, this one won’t,” says the promo of Pyaar Tune Kya Kiya. Indeed this film is not yet another stereotype Bollywood love stories, which paints the hero in white and the villain in black to portray love as an exalter virtue. Pyaar Tune Kya Kiya is colorful. Colorful because director Rajat Mukherjee has imbued the characters in the film with the real shades. A suspicious wife, her infidel husband and his over-possessive mistress—all, it seems, have been lifted from life among higher sections of the society. Rajat Mukherjee deals with emotions like jealousy, envy, infatuation at all with the adeptness of a veteran. He also touches upon certain vague subtleties. Urmila grooves in perfectly as Riya. She convincingly portrays erratic moods of a person. He bubbly buoyancy will not go unnoticed. Particularly laudable is her depiction of two different shades of a same person. First, as vulnerable as any other girl and later a suicidal, she-of-the-killer-instinct, a la Glen Close in Hollywood hit Fatal Attraction, Urmila gives a power-packed performance. Fardeen-Urmila romance is hot and dangerously volatile. They are drawn closer to each other by violent passions at times, but impassive some other time. You can feel the sparks of the passion smoldering between them.[4]
