Dhanush and Nazriya Nazim in Naiyaandi (2013)

Review by raj040492

Naiyaandi

All wrong adjectives in the same sentence.

The biggest mistake I did in recent times was to watch this movie. Few frames were all it took for me to conclude that this is a waste of time and money and if it wasn't for the latter I would have walked out hours earlier than I should. Dhanush, who came good in recent years through Aadukalam, Raanjhaana, Mariyan has touched the wrong end of the line. Though it was a remake of a Malayalam movie, the script could have used a little more pace. Between this screenplay and a snail, the latter will win the race hands down. Add to this pace, a hero who jumps across a well and creates a new Olympic record in long jump, who in the latter scenes jumps from tree to tree to create another Olympic record, this time in high jump. When such a world class athlete (please compete for India in the Olympics) meets a silly girl (Nazriya) who believes in silly things more than reality ( the kind we call in Tamil Cinema as 'Genelia') sparks fly and hero falls for her (as usual). Villain who wants the girl, the girl's father who resists love only to accept it later, three idiots (sorry friends) who move around with no reason at all and five songs which compete with screenplay for the "Best Irritation Award" are SOME of the many reasons, why I highly discourage this movie. Dhanush scores as the singer but fails miserably as the actor. Nazriya's potential has been wasted totally. Other characters don't even catch the eye. Utter disappointment.
