Story of The Film :
Running away from home can’t keep a couple together. A signed paper can’t keep a couple together. Love can. While for most Love Stories, marriage is the “goal”, the fact remains that marriage is just the beginning. Saathiya continues on, from where most love stories end. From the infatuation stage “when a couple thinks they are in love” right through to “when a couple discovers the true meaning of love”. Aditya (Vivek Oberoi) and Suhani (Rani Mukerji) met and fell in love. But when they eloped and set up home hoping that just Love will do the trick – well that’s just the beginning of their story.
Saathiya Movie Songs / Music :
There are 9 songs composer is A. R. Rahman and lyrics are Gulzar. A. R. Rahman re-used all of his compositions from the soundtrack of the Tamil film Alaipayuthey, with the exception of two songs, “Mere Yaar Mila De” and “Naina Milaike” which replaced their Tamil counterparts “Evano Oruvan” and “Alaipayuthey”.
The soundtrack turned out to be one of the strong points of the film. Saathiya won most of the music awards, despite facing tough competition from Devdas (2002). A. R.

Saathiya Movie Review :
This film review are Mostly Positive from Critics, IMDB Public Reviewing site give 6.8 Star Out Of 10 Star with Reviewers are 6560.
Very simple love story, but shown in an angle that makes it interesting and definitely worth watching. And it has great music. The singers and musci director, AR Rehman, all do a great job. The choreography is also great. Most of the songs are well-placed in the film…probably apart from the Chori Pe chori one. It’s got the high quality you would expect from Yash Raj, and the sweet simplicity of Mani Ratnam… Definitely worth a watch.
Critics Rating by Taran Adarsh, from Bollywood Hungama give 1.5 star out of 5 Star.
