Fans comment on Nadikar script
Tovino Thomas’ Nadikar has been mainly receiving average reviews from netizens. An X user revealed that the film’s first half is still better than the second. The user wrote, “Nadikar decent first half followed by highly disappointed second half & horrible climax. Tovino Thomas performance superb. Soubin, chandu, Balu, suresh krishna also good. Technically top notch visuals, music & bgm, costumes. But writing is very weak. Few comedies work well.”
Another user appreciated the movie’s concept, but it seemingly did not work well. The user wrote, “Idea of cinema about cinema genre is a good concept, but a weak script & direction can’t save the movie !! Rich frames & scores but it doesn’t worked. Performance wise all cast did their part very well !! STRICTLY AVERAGE !!”
A third user also mentioned that the movie is an average one. The user wrote, “An average first half followed by a second half. A movie that has nothing to mention. If you just want to see it once, that’s enough. Color gradeing, score liked. Overall a Average experience.”
It seems that the movie has not impressed the viewers. The script has failed to entertain the audience as per netizens’ reviews. However, it would be interesting to follow the movie’s box office collection.
