Naadaniyaan

I dozed off after just 20 minutes while watching this movie. I'll probably give it another shot when I'm struggling to sleep, but honestly, it didn't grab my attention at all. Khushi Kapoor's acting felt more like overacting than anything else. She really needs to stop taking acting lessons from Arjun Kapoor-his style isn't helping her at all. The story itself is also the same old, repetitive tale about high school kids. It was just another cliched, stupid love story that added nothing new to the genre.

Writers really need to come up with something fresh and original because this movie felt like the same old stuff we've seen a million times before. It's just another recycled high school love story with nothing new to offer. But honestly, even though the plot was predictable and the acting wasn't great, it ended up working out for me. I had a really good nap during the movie! It was almost like the perfect sleep aid, so I guess that's one positive thing I can say about it. But still, a new story would have been nice.

Ibrahim has the potential to make a name for himself in the film industry.

However, Kushi's acting feels unnatural and unconvincing. Her sister, Jahnvi, is much better! This movie is a waste of time and music is boring!

The storyline wasn't what I expected, and Kushi could work on her grooming and overall screen presence. She doesn't seem like the right fit for Ibrahim's first movie. Unfortunately, nepotism continues to dominate the industry, affecting the quality of films. It would be great to see more talented individuals getting opportunities, but finding the right candidates seems increasingly impossible these days!

Hats off to Dharma Productions for their guts to produce this movie, and further more for releasing it! Honestly, making a movie is one thing, but having the courage to release it knowing that it's a pathetic creation is another thing! I wish I could turn back time and recover my two hours, or if I could sue the production house for creating these kind of movies that damage the reputation of Indian Cinema.

Both, Khushi Kapoor and Ibrahim Ali, are at their natural worst, with terrible acting and horrible dialogue delivery. Not to forget other actors such as Sunil Shetty, Mahima Chaudhary, Dia Mirza, etc., all of whom look as if they were forced to act at gun point, with zero rupees on their pay check.

The only good point is that anyone who had concerns with nepotism doesn't need to be worried anymore. These horrible talents will only help us better appreciate those who are not from the Industry.

Ah, Naadaaniyan. I walked in with the wide-eyed optimism of a cat chasing a laser pointer, especially with Ibrahim's debut and the faint hope that Khushi Kapoor had, like a software update, fixed some glitches since her last outing. Alas, the laser pointer led me straight into a brick wall.

Khushi, bless her heart, clearly tried. It was like watching someone assemble IKEA furniture without the instructions - some parts fit, others... well, let's just say they're now abstract art. The romantic and college scenes were flatter than a politician's apology. Her emotional scenes were a slight improvement, but still not enough to make me care.

Then there's Ibrahim. He's got the Saif Ali Khan starter pack, complete with the signature smolder and that 'I just woke up looking this good' vibe. But honestly, watching him was like looking at a vintage photo of Saif - nostalgic, but I was hoping for a fresh Polaroid, not a faded reprint. I wanted Ibrahim, not Saif 2.0.

The supporting cast? Suniel Shetty, Dia Mirza, Jugal Hansraj, and Archana Puran Singh were like reliable sidekicks, always there to pick up the slack. But Mahima Chaudhary... oh, Mahima. It was like she'd swapped her acting chops for a really good nap. A long, forgetful nap. I was rooting for her comeback, but it felt more like a "come-back-later-when-you-remember-your-lines" moment.

The music? It was so bland, it's made me question my entire understanding of melody. And the direction by debutant Shauna Gautam was mediocre at best. As the captain of the ship, she should have steered the film more carefully instead of heading straight for an iceberg. On the bright side, Anuj Samtani's cinematography was like the only lifeboat that worked - visually pleasing, but ultimately, it couldn't save the whole sinking experience.

Overall, a solid 3/10. I was truly naadaan to have such high hopes. I've learned my lesson, though. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go rewatch something with a plot that doesn't feel like it was written on a napkin during a bumpy bus ride.

Oh god the movie was so bad i couldn't wait for it to get over.the acting is horrendous and looks absolutely fake and cringe but ibrahim's acting is at least bearable (it's still bad), khushi kapoor's acting was UNBEARABLE, it was so fake and cringe that I wanted to puke The dialogues were bad but their dialogue delivery was worse....bollywood if you wanna make a movie about teenagers maybe let actual teenagers write or direct it...these 40 year old boomers have no idea what teenagers are or what goes through their minds and I think what they show in the movie is what they think our generation is🤡🤡🤡
