Our take
Pyaar Prema Kalyanam is a light Indian romantic comedy about marriage and family rules. You will hear some mild English swearing, see cigarette smoking, and hear jokes about whisky and drunk driving. No kissing, nudity, or fights. In-law arguments and body jokes may land better with teens 13 and up
Uplifting themes
It asks whether old marriage rules are fair, and if a couple can make their own kind of happy Pavi speaks up for what she wants. Elan learns to take more responsibility A simple way to talk about Indian family living, gender roles, and compromise after a wedding
