How do you pronounce "प्यार करना" in Hindi?
pyaar KUR-naa — p and y released together as one cluster, then a long aa and a single tap.
pyaar karnaa
Pyaar is a single heavy syllable, so the phrase runs heavy-light-heavy across its three beats. The cluster at the front does not add a beat, which is exactly what learners get wrong when they insert a vowel.

"Maiṁ aapse pyaar kartaa hooṁ" uses -se rather than -ko for the person loved, which is idiomatic and not predictable from English. The cluster py- follows the s of aapse directly, so there is no pause in which to sneak in a helping vowel.
Where English speakers slip
The predictable repair is "pi-yaar," splitting the cluster into two syllables. English allows py- only in words like "pew," so borrow that onset and change the vowel. And keep the p dry — an aspirated version would push it toward फ, which with a nuqta is a completely different consonant.
