Saina

For me it was just an average movie. Parineeti Chopra looks good somewhere but actually she doesn't get hold of the character of Saina Nehwal. In many parts of the movie, she was not that convincing.

Amol Gupte, who is a respected filmmaker, this time does'nt lives up to expectation. His cinema lacked perfection and execution.

Every good biopics you watched on sportsperson in India like MSDhoni, Sachin a billion dreams, there was something which touched you, which will remain with you for a long time time... Here that special something is missing very badly. There isn't a single moment in the movie which you can take home with you.

Saina Nehwal carrer actually had all the ingredients for making a perfect biopic, but somewhere the execution falls flat.

Bollywood seems to be overrated. Some of them don't even know how to act. Nothing new in the movie. The main lead seems to have no resemblance with the actual talent.

This Bollywood saina is a tired one as no spark of a great player

the story goes in a sad way as parineeti could not carry the fire of the great player ..she looked very weird in the initial stage i dont know whether this overweight issue actually happened..the entry of parineeti was so cold and sad that your momentum of seeing the story of a legend dies..the mother character was really irritating and ruined the chemistry of the family

the director and parineeti always created the opposite reaction to the situations.. the come back of the player after the injury was non energetic and does not inspire you

manav is the light of this movie his screen appearance was enough to take the movie ahead

above all a very cold and tired one.

I was completely blown away by the child actress who played saina,even though she had very less dialogue but she shines whenever she comes on screen. Parineeti should have prepared for the role, her performance wasn't convincing enough because there was only zoom shot of parineeti when she plays badminton and in long shot you can clearly see a body double who is playing the tricky shots and I don't know why parineeti mole keep shifting place throughout the film. Amole gupte direction is decent but the supporting cast was really really good especially manav kaul.overall it's was great a opportunity missed. It doesn't worth the risk of going out in covid and watch the movie.

The movie keeping aside the dismal performance of the Parineeti, also fails to showcase the role of Pullela Gopichand as a coach. I think his name is not even mentioned and is played by some other imaginary coach. Her mom gets more coverage than coach .

Probably Saina forgot her roots and okayed such a script. Weird. ...
