Hi Nanna (2023)

Hi Nanna is a reaffirming tale of love & resilience which is heartwarming and endearing throughout

My Rating : ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (86/100)

Hi Nanna is a poignant journey of a single father which is heartfelt and feel good in its entirety. Director Shouryuv 's debut film and he has done a marvelous job in telling a well written story. The most beautiful part of the film is it's rich music, scored by Hesham Abdul Wahab. His work definitely enhanced the emotional journey. The screenplay is well done, but many unnecessary scenes seemed forced, just like that idiotic Shruti Hasan song but Nani holds the fort which a charming and magnetic performance and the raw emotions make it a difficult film to dislike.

Nani is truly admirable because his choices of film needs a lot of praise. He is commendable, be it scenes of him being excited in love or being practical about his situation he shines in all the frames he comes in. The little kid Kiara Khanna cuteness and her innocence is what the film scores high on too. She is just adorable throughout. Mrunal has done a commendable job as for someone who doesn't know the language, her lip sync with the Telugu artist is extremely believable. Priyadarshi and Jayaram fantastic supporting performances.

Overall, Hi Nanna is no masterpiece nor a film with minimal flaws, but what it strives to achieve is entertain the audience with a wholesome emotional story and it's does that quite well. Urge you to watch this, if dramatic family movies with romance is your liking. I was pleasantly surprised.
