<p>Jaya arrived when her Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham co-star was at the pandal and busy with arrangements. In one clip, Kajol is seen walking towards Bachchan as she leaves. The two were seen sharing a warm hug.</p><h3>Kajol at Durga pandal with her kids, Nysa and Yug</h3><p>On Saturday, Kajol was accompanied by her children, Nysa and Yug, at the puja pandal as they sought blessings. For the first day of the festivities, the actress chose a mustard-yellow and grey saree with a golden border. She paired it with a matching blouse and tied her hair in a tight, neat braid, which was adorned with accessories. She accessorised her look with large earrings and kept her makeup minimal for the day outing.</p>

Somewhere in the middle, it goes off track, only to give out its biggest twist during the interval. The second half feels like an afterthought, as if the writers had a one-page idea note which they now had to expand into a full-length film.”</p>

For the unversed, Dutta had accused Nana Patekar of sexual harassment and intimidation on the sets of the 2009 film Horn 'Ok' Pleassss in 2018, which is widely seen as the start of the #MeToo movement in the Indian film industry. Patekar died at the age of 75 in Goa on October 8 after he suffered a massive heart attack. Days after the actor's death, Nana's only son, Malhar, has broken his silence. Addressing the renewed controversy, Malhar chose not to name anyone, as he said that the case has already been settled legally. During a chat with Hindustan Times, Malhar said, “Without naming anyone, I want to say that the case people are bringing up unnecessarily is already over.'' Also read: Nana Patekar death: AICWA slams Tanushree Dutta over ‘evil dead’ remark Dutta took a legal action against Nana as he accused him of sexual harassment during the 2008 shooting of Horn ‘Ok’ Pleassss. Patekar denied the allegations. In 2019, the case was closed due to lack of evidence. In June 2019, Mumbai Police filed a closure report citing insufficient evidence against Patekar. ''Judiciary se clear hua hain, case khatam ho chuka; phir bhi bol rahe. Aise logo ko mein unko kuch nahi boluga; joh sach hai wahi rahega, bhagwan unka bhala kare, this is what I have to say to them. (Judiciary cleared him, the case is over but people are still speaking. I will not say anything to such people, God bless them).” he added. Speaking about Patekar doing fewer films in the last decade, “He didn’t want to do films as it became repetitive, so he wanted to make his own stories. He believed in evolving as an actor, and that he had in mind. I remember him telling me that ‘kaam ek jaisa nahin hona chahiye’.” Also read: Nana Patekar's #MeToo controversy: From Tanushree Dutta’s allegations to court ruling What did Tanushree Dutta say after Nana’s death? Hours after the news of Nana's death broke, Tanushree shared a video talking about his death and offering condolences to the family. In her first video reaction, Dutta said she had heard the news of Nana Patekar's passing, but her schedule is currently busy and she wants to focus on an event in Lucknow. She said, “Maine suna hai (I have heard the news.) I just… today is my work day. I am going to Lucknow for an event and I want to focus on that. However, the actress faced backlash over her ‘Evil Dead’ comment and said that it's “nothing short of a miracle.” She also called Nana, “a sadistic, sick psychopath."

Nayyi Navelli has an interesting premise and the perfect setup for a horror-comedy. Unfortunately, the screenplay offers very little comedy and very little horror. And whatever horror it does offer seems to be reserved for the makers, not the audience!

The first half is passable, with a few laughs, some intrigue and an interesting interval point. But the second half tests your patience, and by the time the film ends, you’re left wondering if the makers themselves realised what kind of film they were making.

Yami Gautam tries her best to bring life to Balaji Mohan’s film but even her sincere performance can’t save this mess. The music fails to impress, the BGM is ordinary, and the editing is just about okay.

Overall, A horror-comedy that offers neither enough horror nor enough comedy. The real horror story, unfortunately, is what ends up on screen!

YAMI GAUTAM RULES THE SHOW IN THIS FANTASY ENTERTAINER

Aanand L. Rai brings an interesting concept to the big screen, blending mythology, comedy, family drama and action. What starts as a fun family entertainer gradually opens up into a much bigger story, with the Raavan connection adding an unexpected dimension. The interval and climax bring the narrative to another level.

YAMI GAUTAM IS THE SHOWSTOPPER! She is outstanding in a role that demands both comic timing and intensity. Anurag Thakur impresses as the suspicious brother-in-law, while Addinath M. Kothare provides good support. Writers Himanshu Sharma and Divy Nidhi Sharma deserve credit for the imaginative storyline, while director Balaji Mohan executes the vision with conviction. The production quality and VFX are impressive, giving the film a grand feel.

The film does have a few shortcomings it could have been 15/20 mins shorter. However, these flaws don’t take away from the film’s entertainment value.

Overall - Nayyi Navelli is an interesting concept, a terrific Yami Gautam performance and an engaging mix of mythology and entertainment that makes Nayyi Navelli a worthwhile festive watch……

#NayyiNavelli is a major misfire.

What was supposed to be a quirky horror-comedy about a new bride suspected of being a dayan ends up as a dull, stretched, and confused film. The setup had some promise, but the writing never capitalises on it. The film keeps circling the same “is she or isn’t she” idea without building proper tension, scares, or laughs.

Yami Gautam tries hard, but she looks completely out of place trying to balance the horror and comedy tones. Her performance feels forced, and the character never becomes interesting enough to hold the film. Supporting cast mostly overacts, and the comedy track falls flat almost throughout.

The second half dumps heavy Ramayana and mythology elements that feel preachy rather than entertaining. At 2 hours 18 minutes, the runtime becomes a real problem. Direction is flat, VFX are average, and the film never finds a consistent tone.

Overall, Nayyi Navelli is a tedious watch that wastes a decent concept and a capable lead actress. Weak opening and poor word-of-mouth look inevitable.</p>&mdash; Vishwajit Patil (@_PatilVishwajit) <a href="https://x.com/_PatilVishwajit/status/2110995044870082747?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">October 16, 2026</a></blockquote>

Nayyi Naveli X reviews: Yami Gautam’s horror-comedy receives mixed reactions

<p>Rajkummar Rao is earning a lot of praise for his performance as Ujjwal Nikam, the lawyer who prosecuted terrorist Ajmal Kasab. Now his story has come to the big screen and, as expected, the world doesn't know much about the man who played a major role as a public prosecutor representing the Maharashtra government in Kasab's case.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Hailing from a humble background, Nikam went on to become one of the most well-known public prosecutors in India, who fought several high-profile cases apart from Kasab's. And while few people know, he was the one who sent actor Sanjay Dutt behind bars.</p><h3><br>Ujjwal Nikkam, who sent Sanjay Dutt to jail</h3><p>Dutt's world came crumbling down when his indirect involvement in the 1993 Mumbai bomb blasts case came to the fore.

He kept saying, ‘No sir, I didn’t do anything wrong, sir. I will come back.’ He was virtually shaking.

The film stars Wamiqa Gabbi, Jaideep Ahlawat and Sikandar Kher in lead roles.</p>

Director Avinash Arun's Prahaar: The Ujjwal Nikam Story is a courtroom drama based on the life of renowned public prosecutor Ujjwal Nikam, who also sent  Sanjay Dutt behind bars in the 1993 arms case. 

Rajkummar Rao is earning a lot of praise for his performance as Ujjwal Nikam, the lawyer who prosecuted terrorist Ajmal Kasab. Now his story has come to the big screen and, as expected, the world doesn't know much about the man who played a major role as a public prosecutor representing the Maharashtra government in Kasab's case. Hailing from a humble background, Nikam went on to become one of the most well-known public prosecutors in India, who fought several high-profile cases apart from Kasab's. And while few people know, he was the one who sent actor Sanjay Dutt behind bars. Ujjwal Nikkam, who sent Sanjay Dutt to jail Dutt's world came crumbling down when his indirect involvement in the 1993 Mumbai bomb blasts case came to the fore. He was accused of possessing arms that were part of the consignment used in the blasts that shook Mumbai on March 12, 1993, claiming the lives of 257 people. For illegally possessing weapons in his house, Dutt was found guilty and sentenced to five years in prison. In his interviews, Nikam always said that seeing Dutt as a terrorist is not right. He did this at a time when the actor was young and out of his passion for weapons. However, when he was fighting the case, he argued that Dutt should be sentenced to seven years under the Arms Act.

<p>The flight of fancy scales unimaginable heights with this one. In director Balaji Mohan’s supernatural-meets-mythology comedy caper Nayyi Navelli, Yami Gautam plays a mysterious woman with special powers. On the onset, the film appears to mix comedy and horror- a template well established by the Stree franchise. But the film’s punchlines and wit soon segue into mythology.

However, the film quickly spirals thanks to a convoluted plot that infuses too many things into one story, making the second half extremely tedious to watch.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The story of Ramayan has been a source of inspiration for filmmakers for decades. The entire concept of good vs evil is a theme that never goes out of fashion and can be interpreted in multiple ways.

It may not always make sense, but it still makes for an interesting plot.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><h2>What’s the story of Nayyi Navelli?</h2><p>New bride Mohini (Yami Gautam) brings a sense of sanity to an otherwise dysfunctional Awasthi family as she marries the elder son, Raja (Adinath Kothare).

Nayyi Navelli review: Yami Gautam and Anurag Thakur do the heavy lifting in a film that has a convoluted screenplay. While the first half entertains, post-interval, the film nosedives into a deep illogical pit.

What’s the story of Nayyi Navelli? New bride Mohini (Yami Gautam) brings a sense of sanity to an otherwise dysfunctional Awasthi family as she marries the elder son, Raja (Adinath Kothare). Mohini is more qualified than her husband and even earns more. Naturally, she is loved by the entire family except Raja’s younger brother Bantu (Anurag Thakur), who is suspicious of her every move and is convinced that she is a daayan (witch) with ill intentions. As Bantu goes the extra mile to convince his family about Mohini, the members dismiss him and his claims, blinded by her charm. Is Mohini really evil as Bantu claims, or is she genuinely trying to help the family without any ulterior motive, forms the rest of the story.
