It is good movie coz it makes you feel good
sam-716165 December 2022
Hats off to acting of Kumud Mishra. Abhishek Banerjee, Divya Dutta and all other actors did great job with their characters. This movie attempts to take you through an emotion called life. In my case it is successful. I smiled, I cried, I laughed and I enjoyed the moments it showed.

It is a ride worth taking. Even though very predictable, still it was addictive enough to watch till the end. The songs are very well placed and nice. "Aadhi kahani", "jadoo" are very melodious and lyrics are good as well.

Give it a try, it is worth your time. Even after the movie ended, I am still flowing in the emotions I felt while watching the movie. And it is a good feeling, an appreciation towards life.

You will be surprised
rehmankhilji7 December 2022
When you are least expecting from a movie, it is when where it becomes that extra interesting, extra tasty, extra entertaining.

This is what exactly happened with me. I started the movie, cause i was not able to find something else. But what class, what next level of acting, dialogues and direction i found, completely to my surprise and to my complete likeness.

Kumud Mishra, i couldn't guess it was him, had to see the database for it. Remarkable acting, what talent shown and character adoption was next level.

Divya Dutta, with her witty comic style was a treat and Abhishek Banerjee joined the trio in his own unique style.

It's light, it's touchy, it's sweet and it is just good to see. Yes, if a little tear is out at the end, trust me, worth it.

Must see, do see.

Good clean cinema!
0FilterT29 December 2022
A heartfelt light weight drama that carries a nice message. Kumud Mishra puts out a brilliant performance, playing a blind character. There's not one second in the entire film that you could say he isn't being true to the character. And that can be said for Abhishek Banerjee and Divya Dutta as well. All three are absolutely adorable and share great chemistry throughout the film. Music felt a bit generic, both the songs and the background music. Which is a shame because the performances kept hitting the right notes consistently.

Overall, this is an enjoyable watch and is a rare clean watch with no obscenities in a sea of 18+ content.

THIS IS CINEMA!
ajju-cool9 December 2022
What is a good movie suppose to do?

A good movie is suppose to inspire you, bring up emotions that you never thought you had, make you laugh, make you cry, make you think, make you feel, leave an impression that stays with you even after the end credits role.. and this movie does all of that!

What a beautiful movie!

Kumud Mishra is brilliant and other hold their part well. The scene and the chemistry between Kumud Mishra and Rajeshwari Sachdev is heart warming.

In a time where a family movies are full of vulgarity and sexual obsession, here comes a movie that is truly a family movie in all sense.

Had this movie had a A list cast, the movie lovers would have been raving about this flick.

It's a great watch!

Very pleasant
sameerlodaya6 December 2022
Sameer lodaya

The movie gives you a pleasant feeling

Kumud Mishra once again performed outclass as the main lead after dr Arora they way he has expressed the character of a blind person with full of life is to be learned by the all the actors..the gentle touch he gave to this character with his sweet smile soft voice and innocent expressions and full of tender heart is highly appreciated

Even Abhishek played well and it has to happen when your Co actor is performing at such high scale you are tend to perform on a high scale

The pace of the movie is slow but it's not boring probably the young audience will not take it

One has to watch for high performances.

Mesmerizing Performance๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿป
ssnayak62706 December 2022
Kumud Mishra Sir has delivered a performance beyond any appreciation. I know this movie will not hit the box office because it does not have the khans or the kapoors. But real acting does not need fan following. Kumud Ji has shown the reality of life and his acting cannot be compared with any one in the industry. Abhishekh and Divya and other actors have also done their part well. But Kumud Ji literally made me cry when he said "Maa, main kabhi nahi bhaag sakta". His is such a versatile actor. Perhaps actors like him are the reason we still watch bollywood movies. Else no one is interested.๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป

How can you nazar andaaj so many things ?
Rajit_thebingewatcher13 December 2022
It was a promising premise , a blind wants to visit his home town and two twisted souls agree to help him. But because of the too much melodrama the script didn't take off as expected.

Kumud Mishra , divya dutta are so natural actors that they can make average script feel good but this time they are given so less to work with . Sometimes silence works better in movies but here it is filled with unwanted songs and melodramatic music. The sudhirs plot is so shallowly written. What does he do for living ? It is said he is a music composer but nothing related to that area shown in the movie. The relationship development with the thief is too convenient.

You can not do nazar andaaz to those aspects.

I did not know that acting can be this real before watching this movie. mind-blowing.
fakhrulasa10 December 2022
Kumud Mishra Sir, from today you are the best actor I have seen. I won't go to the story or anything else but I cried so hard after watching this movie by only watching your acting. Not for a single moment, you forgot your role, you showed how to get into your role such that even you cannot distinguish yourself and your role. Maybe this movie will not hit hard with the audience but I believe whoever will watch this or watch this will have a new scale to judge acting. Besides everyone in this movie proved how capable they were. I am writing my first review because I believe leaving a review of this masterpiece may encourage others to watch this awesome movie. Thank you for giving us these wonderful moments throughout the movie.

Good movie minus Music
avdhoot-6431517 March 2023
Though the movie delivers what it promises. But I feel movies like this should have a good songs (1 or 2), which will have a soul of the movie, which will be remembered after the movie ends.

Director and producer should keep a budget for at least 2 good songs. This type of movies should be recognised, for it music will surely help.

The movie surely have a good story, script and acting from all the 3 actors.

Kumud Mishra has done a fantastic job. The movie starts with a comedy and ends on a rather emotional note.

I hope we will be seeing more of this type of movies in near future, and hope producers and directors will take a note of this.

Nothingburger, largely avoidable.
parabola99996 December 2022
As the title suggests, nothing great about the movie. Tries to tug at heartstrings, but fails. Tries to go for jokes, but 95% of them don't land. Can avoid, surely much better fare available om the idiot box/on the appsphere. The movie tries hard to draw sympathy from the viewers for the protagonist since he's blind, but Kumud Mishra, despite trying his hardest, has little to work with.

Similarly, the supporting cast, both venerable character actors, are reduced to Haryanvi and Mumbai tapori stereotypes, and can't break those shells. This movie is like poor khandvi, rolled around pointlessly without gumption, purpose or mission. It exists.

Wonder story and amazing acting
fambook5 December 2022
Beautiful movie with a message, story and amazing acting. Kumud Mishra, Divya Dutta and Abhishek Banerjee have proved it once again how talented they are. You will definitely smile, cry and thank god for this wonderful gift of life.

You will not regret watching this movie. The overall music in this movie is also good and sinks you in the scene.

Hats-off to the director, writer and team for making this masterpiece. The locations shown in the movie are not very fancy and looks realistic.

Beautiful and un-predictable climax, which gives a strong message to everyone to do something for our society. I thank the team of Nazar Andaaz and wish them all the best.

Good acting - predictable story - acting could have been better
MindblowingMahiya17 December 2022
Kumud Mishra is an absolute chameleon. (where was he for 11 years after Sardari Begum?) I first noticed him as soulless terrorist with a massive inferiority complex and playing a perfect contrast to the the two lead goof-balls of Filmistan.

Since then, I have want him any of his movie I can just for his turn. He delivers here with one of the most authentic portrayal of a blind person I have ever seen. Prospect Kumud, Abhishek and Divya Dutta carrying an entire movie together is exciting.

Sadly we. Meet with some lazy writing and just a tad bit tired and a rare "going through the motions" performance by Divya - and some very cheap production.

The very opening scene establishes that the protagonist is dead. Then in the story told in flashback there are way too many references to will and predictable reaction of the two other characters that end up making their characters too shallow, too simple. Divya and Abhishek are capable of much more layered performance. The first half limps barring a few brilliant moments (Ali emulates touching feet of an Alexa-like device Sudhir refers to as Mummy). In how many movies can we possibly find the "Sholay" dialogues of 'Itna sannata kyun hai bhai?" uttered by a blind man amusing?

Then with a not-subtle-at-all plot-turn of a "bucket list road-trip" - which was pulled off much more skillfully in Piku, we are sent to Manadvi (Note to Bollywood: there are other beautiful cities in Gujarat - even in Kutch itself) after a ridiculous 3-4 minute sequence of a blind man driving a scooter with a side-car on a highway. Not funny.

The movies ends in Kutch desert where even for desert, there are way too many stars and an arial shot fails to hide white plastic being passed off as salt-desert. Why that in 2022?

So Mishra great as always. Benerji at par. Dutta not her usi sal great self. Decent concept. Poor and lazy writing. A a rare movie these days when one wants to watch with family of several generations.

One Of The Best Movie I Have Ever Seen
MehdiRizvi-786711 December 2022
Best movie of the decade...what a performance by all three casts. Sudhirbhai's character is outstanding in acting, expressions and emotions.

The superb storyline, screenplay and perfect directions. Nothing less nor more, everything is perfect ๐Ÿ‘Œ Kumud Mishra must be acknowledged by the award for his excellent performance. Anupam Kher or any other actors who believe that they are legends; should watch this movie to learn some great acting and performance from Kumud Mishra. Hats off to legend Kumud Mishra.

Such a Great Movie Kudos to Debut director Vikrant Deshmukh complimented with an awesome performance by Kumud Deshmukh , he was so much into the character , Hats Off to Him. Abhishek is equally entertaining ,The movie is heart felt , warm and so many moments which capyures different emotions , especially the one where it portarays the Mother "Maa" was awesome , "Maa Sukoon hoti he !!" , lot of hidden message in the movie with positivity, this is a movie with no non sense and worth watching many times. Simply Awesome.... Thanks Vikrant and Kumud ...

Emotional Fact Ficton
taiyabazh5 December 2022
What a superb acting by Kumud Mishra . Divya Dutta on the other hand was marvelous as well as Abhishek Banerjee. The trio acted beyond the script and made us feel it and many a times tearful eyes . Its a fact which we all take it for granted that the bounties The Almighty has bestowed on us. Amongst that is our precious eyes, which has been depicted in this movie its value and importance by the scriptwriter . Full of colorful conversations but truth of life which should be valued , which we mostly don't. The climax was emotional and eye opener for all of us that we should donate for the ones who don't have what we have. Thank you.

Brilliant script, direction and performance
aussieniks12 January 2023
Those who thnk this movie is senseless and stupid are not a true lover of films and art.

A simple storyline but with a lovely message enclosed within. The film maybe slow burning but does not feel like it. The script is tight, director is brilliant with very crisp editing.

Cinematography is beautiful and have brilliantly captured the scenes and moods.

Music is soothing and does not feel like they have been forced upon the audience.

Kumud Mishra is a star actor who has not got the desired recognition just because they are not the mass-followed actors.

Divya Dutta, Rajeswari Suchdev and Abhishek Banerjee; they all have given brilliant performances.

In a nutshell a must watch film for those love talent and love real films.

Bring senseless plain Stupid
jsahni-7682211 January 2023
Dont waste your time watching this movie as the movie makes no sense. There is no plot no story and not sure why the director and producer actually made this movie. Just one good scene where the blind man takes charge of the scooter to get past the police check post rest the whole movie is not funny not falling in any genres. Save your self the pain and stay away from this boring title for good.

Actors have tried their best to bring the characters to life, that is the only one thing what is good about this movie that you see some good method acting but as there is no script, no moments not emotion not drama, no action, no comedy so all the effort just goes in to vain.

Amazing movie - the fine show of art
freesoulzeal22 January 2023
Best movie I have ever watched since 10 years. What an acting by kumud mishra and others. I feel blessed to have come around this movie. I would recommend everyone go give this movie a chance.. You won't regret!

I had goosebumps throughout the movie. Fine mixture of comedy and emotional aspects. I am in love with acting of each one of them. Such movies need awards.. Such actors needs to be appreciated. I feel sorry this movie did not do a buzz..

This movie has everything that a best movie needs.. Fine story, acting, songs, emotional connection, direction, dialogues and what not.

Please watch the movie.. Please.

True Cinema! Mind blowing acting
abhineetagr6 January 2023
I just stumbled upon this gem on OTT. I was mind blown by the acting of all the actor, but Kumud Mishra stole the show. It won't be overrating saying that Kumud should fight for an oscar for this performance.

The story develops well and the dialogues will leave you thinking about life for a long time.

A perfect combination of comedy and emotions. One of the rarest movies to showcase the romanticism of a middle aged man without any eroticism.

This movie will force you to sit down and contemplate life. This is not a movie just to hook you for few hours, rather it will make ou feel every single emotion the actors have performed so well.

This movie puts most of the movies by the shehenshahs and badhshahs of bollywood.

Acting - 100 out of 10 Story - 10/10 Dialogues - 9/10.

amairkhan-115148 December 2022
Text: This movie will change your perception towards your life. You might even wanna change your approach towards your life. Amazing story well written script. The movie will show you different aspect of human life. The actors has totally justified the roles given to them Mr. Sharma has done the exceptional work as always. Abhishek and Divya Dutt are not unknown for their acting and versatility. I started watching the movie by keeping comedy in my mind but didn't thought I might cry as well. Beautiful work by all artist the movie should have been given highest rating by the audience. A Must watch movie.

Heart-achingly Beautiful, Yet Riotously Tender
Zerxo21 January 2023
This film had a theatrical release in November 2022 - and it went by largely unnoticed. I remember seeing the soundtrack pop-up on my music streaming service as a recommendation, but I didn't get around to listening to it at the time - there were actually several big releases at that time of last year in fact...

Sorry about the long-ass intro, but I just now watched the film on Netflix and to cut a long story short: this film is incredible.

I will be re-watching it immediately, because the way it took me by surprise - I'm still shooketh. I just need to experience it again, fully. At first I thought "Oh it's got a cool concept"... and then I was like "Wow okay, they got some well executed scenes and several entertaining moments here, bravo". And after that I had to pause just to delve deeper into the music because "Jadoo" is still on repeat. Exquisitely sung, composed and written by: Parampara Thakur, Vishal Mishra and Raj Shekhar, respectively. All the other songs are just as beautiful, but this one has hit me in the feels, it's that melancholic vibe, that's my vibe.

I don't know if anyone will ever read this, but I'm going on.

The performances will take your heart. I can't emphasise that enough. Kumud Mishra is soul-stirring. Divya Dutta is spellbinding. Abhishek Banerjee is delightful. Hats off to the director Vikrant Deshmukh and writer Rishi Virmani - what a class act.

Simply Wow ... !
shirishgc10 January 2023
Awesome piece of art. Every character have played brilliantly ... Hats off the Kumud Mishra for playing this role. You can't take your eyes off him. Divya is classy as usual.

The climax and the ending is just so touching.

We should make more such movies than circling our concepts around some love stories or meaningless Telugu action.

The questions the movie unfold about the Mother, Happiness, Sadness, Beauty .. Freedom and Respect ... were so simply and beautifully explained. The points where the questions were placed ... The simplicity with which they were explained

What a movie ๐ŸŽฅ! Bless you guys.

A slice of life .
nakulchoudhary5 December 2022
A Very feel good movie that attempts to make u feel calm and engages u with good writing that breezes with meaning and casual good jokes . Slightly on the slower side and is very genric at times but it's fine. It's deliberately that way to make u feel a thing or two.

Kumud Mishra is a gem of an actor and this proves it even more. Banerjee and dutta jee gives a great helping hand.

It's a breadth of fresh calm air that paces itself out and ends even calmer.

Music is very very good in this one.

Jado and adhi kahani are superb tracks from Vishal mishraa.

Lyrics definately makes u feel things.
