Overall, 'Nadaaniyan' is a mixed bag, resonating with some and disappointing others.
Featured reviews
As soon as the movie started, after 5-10 minutes I realized that it's going to be flop.
I am so bored after watching the movie ( i watched it , hopefully thinking it might pickup the pace after some time, which it didn't ) Writing a review for this movie feels like a tedious task . But want to save some time for other viewers, you won't enjoy it much unless you are locked in a room with nothing but except this movie on the TV.
However, personally I would prefer to not watch the movie in that scenario either and would like to spend my time thinking about genetically modifying the cows to fight the aliens . That will be more interesting and better use of my time than watching this movie. Thank you.

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.

Looks like the director has an obsession for Hollywood high school dramas. Trys hard to recreate the American high schoo experience in India, but fails. Doesn't feel real and doesn't connect with you. The pacing is slow and the story fails to take off. It all falls flat A highly talented supporting cast is completely wasted in this snooze fest. Khushi needs a lot of work on her acting and dialogue delivery. Ibrahim just looks lazy and expressionless throughout the film. The chemistry between the lead pair is literally non existent. Thankfully this didn't get a Full screen release. The current lot of Bollywood filmakers seem seem to be completely out of touch with the viewing public.
I rarely leave reviews, but Naadaniyaa was so unbearable that I had to warn others. From the very first scene, it was clear that this movie was going to be a disaster. The acting is not just bad (specially khushi kapoor) -it's over-the-top and cringe-worthy, making even the most basic dialogues feel forced and unnatural.
The storyline (if you can even call it that) is predictable and painfully slow. I gave it a fair chance, watching for about 30 minutes, but I just couldn't continue. There's no depth in the characters, the humor is flat, and the emotional scenes are laughably exaggerated.
Save your time and skip this one. There are plenty of better movies out there that won't make you regret pressing play.
