Featured reviews
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.

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.

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🤡🤡🤡
Another banger of a movie from the Alumni of the Karan Johar College of Nepotism and Shifaaras, this movie is inspiring.
I was comatose for 6 months in a hospital when my wife switched this on on Netflix to fall asleep to, suddenly it was so cringe and tryhard that it made my come out of my coma and get up to get the remote and exit out of the Netflix App and put something else on!
A must watch for comatose patients and dead people as it will definitely bring you back from the death and change the channel or app.
Saif Ali Khans kid tries too hard while Sridevis kid has no talent. Amazing!!!
