Watched Nadaaniyan—a film showing the ultra-glamorous, high-standard school life where studies take a backseat. Starring Khushi Kapoor and Bollywood’s fresh, dashing newcomer, Ibrahim Ali Khan (a Xerox copy of his father, Saif Ali Khan). But does this Bollywood launch hit the mark or miss completely? Let’s break it down.
Ibrahim Ali Khan – A Déjà Vu Moment
The resemblance between Ibrahim and Saif is uncanny. If their voices matched, people might believe Saif time-traveled back to his youth. But let’s give the debutant some time—it’s his first film.
The Story – Rich Kids, Fake Problems
The biggest issue? Where do these ultra-expensive schools even exist? Watching this film might make you feel broke. Studies? Who cares! Here, competition isn’t about grades—it’s about:
- Who has the hotter girlfriend?
- Who wears better clothes?
- Who attracts more admirers?
- Who has the coolest, darkest, handsomest boyfriend?
Sounds relatable? If not, maybe you’re too “middle-class” for this story.
Khushi Kapoor – Robotic Performance
The storyline is average, but what really stands out? Khushi Kapoor’s acting—robotic to the core. Her expressions, dialogue delivery—completely mechanical. If an actor like Ranbir Kapoor were cast opposite her, he might have given up mid-scene. Thankfully, Ibrahim manages to carry some weight in the film.
Only for the Ultra-Rich?
If you’re filthy rich, maybe you’ll connect with this film. Otherwise, dialogues like “You’re late! My highlighter is losing its glow!” might just make you roll your eyes.
