Ibrahim and Khushi's film is a sign of Bollywood romance heading south

Candy floss is sweet and pink. Bubble gum is similar in colour and taste, but chewy. There's no logic as to why we are suddenly discussing them. The same can be said about the two-hour yawn fest that is Nadaaniyan.

And this is coming from someone who has cheered for Rohit Shetty's OTT action films and laughed during Salman Khan's brainless comedies (when they used to be done well).

The debut vehicle of actors Saif Ali Khan and Amrita Singh's son Ibrahim Ali Khan, this film is so bland it makes you nostalgic for the silly, frothy fun of Student Of The Year (2012).

The story revolves around Pia (Khushi Kapoor), a rich girl dealing with personal issues even as she puts on a smile to face the world, and Arjun (Ibrahim), a boy focused on his career who doesn't want any "distraction". But following a misunderstanding, Pia convinces Arjun to act as her boyfriend in exchange for money. Of course, feelings get in the way... There's nothing more to the story.
