Nadaaniyan Twitter reviews

Viewers noted that the Netflix release was bland, and the two leads were not able to add anything fresh to their characters. One tweet read, “If you want a masterclass in how not to act, just watch Nadaaniyan on Netflix, Khushi Kapoor and Ibrahim Ali Khan will show you exactly what to avoid. Also somebody get this nasal voice out of my head.”

Another viewer said, “#Nadaaniyaan – Indeed a Silly One!!! Shauna Gautam presents a story where the rich meets the poor—but with Bollywood’s evolving definition of “poor.” Nadaaniyaan had the ingredients for a compelling love story but fails to leave a lasting impact.” “Nadaaniyan is so bad like so bad i can't even like how can a movie be sooooo bad NO PLOT, NO STORYLINE, NO ACTINGS OMG,” said a second viewer after watching the film.

Some viewers noted Khushi Kapoor's improvement on screen. One review read, “#Nadaaniyan turned out to be GOOD!! Liked Ibrahim Ali Khan’s debut, Khushi Kapoor is also improving with every movie.”

A viewer also noted that Nadaaniyan is no modern take on Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, as was teased in the first promotional video by the makers. “10 mins into Nadaaniyan and I'm unable to take it. This ain't no Kuch Kuch Hota Hai 😭😭😭” read the tweet.
