EXCLUSIVE REVIEW BY HANUMANT BHANSALI
Samir Karnik, a Bollywood analyst is back after a long gap with his second venture, interesting titled ‘Nanhe Jaisalmer’. The concept is a different one though it is completely left deserted amidst the audacities of boredom.
The story of the film revolves around Nanhe. Nanhe is a child who lives in Jaisalmer with his mother, sister and his camel. He manages to earn his livelihood by renting his camel to the tourists in camel safaris.
Earlier, Nanhe had appeared briefly in a shot with Bobby for a film and since then they have been friends. Bobby Deol is the only friend that Nanhe has and he draws influences from the actor.
As he grows up, Bobby influences his thoughts and actions. His joy knows no bounds when he hears that Bobby is coming to Jaisalmer for a film shoot. Life changes for Nanhe when he meets Bobby Deol as the actor helps Nanhe overcome his difficulties and obstacles in life by giving him some advices which turn out to be words of wisdom for Nanhe.
Eventually, Nanhe finds a new unleashed life and gains confidence to face the world.
The film is a complete loser as there is no one except the kid Dwij Yadav who holds on to catch your attention till the very end.
The direction is weak and the screenplay has been not capitalized by the director. Samir Karnik, has forgotten all the basics elements of film making and loses on a good script.
Musically, Himesh’s compositions can be given a miss as they look forced in the storyline. Choreography is dull and unattractive. Cinematography is okay but not worth enough to sit through the film.
Performance wise, child actor Dwij Yadav stands out as the lone winner in the film. Bobby Deol is out of place and shouldn’t have actually chosen the role in the first place. He is not in his spirits in Nanhe Jaisalmer.
Overall, Nanhe Jaisalmer fails to quench the thirst of the viewers looking for an entertaining cinema, something that the director must look into pretty soon.
