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 …
Hi Nanna is such a heartwarming watch. Holds your attention from the first frame and surprises you with the twists & turns through the narrative. Has the heart at its right place, evokes laughter, makes you emotional and finally leaves you on a happy note. Nani, Mrunal Thakur and Baby Kiara Khanna deliver a formidable performance, that stays with you. It's a love story that will live with the audience for years to come. It's a MUST watch!
