Ten
year old Nanhe (Dwij) earns a living to support his mum and sister
by organising camel rides for tourists.
Nanhe
has always been an ardent fan of Bollywood star, Bobby Deol, with
whom he has built a strong bond of friendship through communication
by letters.
When
Nanhe openly declared his fascination for his idol, he was often
ridiculed and disapproved by his friends and families.
But
when he finally comes face to face with his hero, his life suddenly
changes forever.
Unlike
his first film, Kyon Ho Gaya Na, which focused on a young couple's
romance, director Samir Karnik concentrates on pure fantasy this
time round with a child artist as the main lead.
A simple
screenplay with no subplots to create unnecessary twists and turns,
Nanhe Jaisalmer keeps you engrossed throughout, especially in scenes
involving young Dwij and Bobby.
Without
a shadow of doubt, young talented Dwij is the main star as the adorable
Nanhe.
He
portrays the stubbornness and vulnerability of the ten year old
character with great confidence and real pride.
Bobby
Deol gives a subdued performance as Nanhe's idol although another
actor like Salman Khan or Hrithik Roshan would be better suited
for this role. This is mainly due to their strong screen presence
and megastar status.
On
the whole, Nanhe Jaisalmer is a pure fantasy film - a children's
delight this autumn.
