What you get when you bring together a clueless husband, his ditzy wife, and his clumsy little brother? Lots and lots of mischief, of course.

 

 

 

 

+ High Points

i – The long list of cameos in many different episodes, usually playing as themselves, had made the viewers to be interested towards this TV series.

 

 

 

+ Low Points

i – All the technicalities, whether its camera handling, production design, editing… are just workable.

 

 

 

 

+ Overall
Nadaaniyaan is a light comedy sitcom, which is watchable as a good time pass.
