Ibrahim Ali Khan calls his Netflix film Nadaaniyan 'really bad': 'There were people who were trolling it just because...'

Ibrahim Ali Khan and Khushi Kapoor starrer Nadaaniyan was released amid high expectations on Netflix. However, the rom-com opened to poor reviews and garnered severe criticism for its performances and storytelling.

And now in an interview with Esquire India, the actor opened up on the aftermath and revealed, “Not too long ago, they were all waiting for my launch, and after Nadaaniyan, the hype has dropped real bad. They’ve trolled me nonstop. ‘He won’t be able to do it only’."

The actor added, “It’s a massive low… and I constantly feel bad about it.” He then acknowledged that it was indeed a bad film. “I’m just gonna go on record and say that it was a really bad film.”

The trolling culture on social media

Ibrahim Ali Khan continued, “It was really bad. It became a sort of culture to, ‘Oh, let’s troll that film’. There were people who were trolling it just because they heard that some other person was trolling it.”

He added, “That’s uncalled for, but if I now give a blockbuster in the future, I want the same kind of response. They should go mad after me.”

“I was working very hard—like I’m still working hard on my speech issue. But in a way, I feel I must have rushed into that movie. I was 21 when I began shooting for it—others around me are doing it at 26, 27, 28—and I now think I could have been more mindful of the scale of what was going to happen.”

Directed by Shauna Gautam, _Nadaaniyan_ also featured Suniel Shetty, Jugal Hansraj, Dia Mirza, and Mahima Chaudhry in key roles. It was produced by Karan Johar, Adar Poonawalla, Somen Mishra, and Apoorva Mehta.
