Ibrahim Ali Khan on Nadaaniyan criticism
In a recent interview with Filmfare, Ibrahim Ali Khan was asked to share his thoughts on Nadaaniyan, which has been getting mixed responses on social media. The actor said that Nadaaniyan was not to be some grand film and was meant to be a sweet, breezy rom-com that you should enjoy on a Friday night, chilling in bed.
"Social media is a hateful world, right now, and they tried to twist it a lot. Sure, as a lead actor, I have to bring in loads more than what I did. I know I can bring it and I am confident that I will bring it in my future projects. But I’m happy with what it was. I worked with hardworking people and we made a sweet film. I get the criticism, but I enjoyed working on it. It was meant to be sweet and breezy. I would say it’s good," Ibrahim added.
