Nayee Padosan review :

Not exactly a remake but more of a tribute to the cult classic Padosan (1968), Nayee Padosan had three young lads vying for their beautiful neighbour played by debutant Mahek Chahal. Rahul Bhatt's 'Madrasi' music teacher character was obviously inspired from Mehmood in Padosan but the guy couldn't match up to the legend's performance in the original.

Nayee Padosan belonged to Mahek Chahal and she looked truly bubbly and charming. Her performance was also much better than her male suitors. Looking elegant in traditional as well as western wear, Mahek was the only reason the film turned out to be a watchable fare.

Unfortunately, the audience compared it to Padosan and that lead to them getting disappointed. Shah Rukh Khan's Chalte Chalte (2003) also gave it hard competition at the ticket windows and the end result was that Nayee Padosan sank at the box office though it was a timepass movie worth a one time watch. I caught it on satellite tv after a few months of theatrical release and liked it. Could've probably worked with the right publicity and release timing.

Regards, Sumeet Nadkarni.
