Film Naadaniyan Criticized by Indian Netizens, Acting of Ibrahim Ali Khan and Khushi Kapoor Rated Poorly

Kapanlagi.com - The much-anticipated debut film, 'NADAANIYAN', turned out to be disappointing for many viewers. Starring Ibrahim Ali Khan and Khushi Kapoor, this film was released on Netflix on March 7, 2025. Despite having a large budget and an interesting story, the execution of this film has faced sharp criticism from netizens.

Amidst the enthusiasm of fans, the film has instead become a topic of negative discussion on social media. Many viewers expressed disappointment with the performances of the main actors and felt that the chemistry between Ibrahim and Khushi was inadequate. Some even described the dialogues in this film as 'cringe' or embarrassing.

“They had the funding, a good story, and nice music, but the main actors really lacked in terms of acting, chemistry, and screen presence,” said a viewer on social media. Moreover, many believe that this film is not worth watching.

The acting of Ibrahim Ali Khan and Khushi Kapoor has come under major scrutiny. Although both are children of famous actors, their performances on the big screen have been deemed disappointing. A social media user even tweeted, “#NaadaniyanReview: NOT WORTH WATCHING! This film lacks good acting, direction, or editing.”

Khushi Kapoor, who is the daughter of Sridevi, also did not escape criticism. Some viewers joked that after watching her performance, they appreciated the acting skills of Janhvi Kapoor, Arjun Kapoor, and Suhana Khan, who had previously also faced a lot of backlash from Bollywood film lovers.

2. An Interesting Plot That Goes to Waste

This film also stars several senior actors such as Mahima Chaudhry, Dia Mirza, Suniel Shetty, and Jugal Hansraj. There are even some cameos from famous influencers expected to add appeal to the film. However, in reality, this was not enough to save 'Nadaaniyan' from harsh criticism.

On social media, many netizens expressed their disappointment. “Mere Husband Ki Biwi feels like an Oscar-worthy film compared to this. #IbrahimAliKhan & #KhushiKapoor are really lacking in acting, charisma, and screen presence,” wrote another viewer.

With all the criticism received, 'Nadaaniyan' serves as a valuable lesson for Ibrahim Ali Khan and Khushi Kapoor. Although they have potential, it seems they still have much to learn to shine in the Bollywood film industry.
