Analysis:
‘Hi Nanna’ is a clean movie as it’s trailer indicates. Hero Nani has selected a typical subject that suits his nuances. The director takes his own time to set the premise. An interesting start gradually falls into a template love story, but the pre interval and interval episodes bring some freshness to the story. The cute little girl Kiara as Mahi steals the show in first half. The poetic ‘ Samayamaa’ song, the guitar song ‘ Ammadi ‘ are outstanding.
Second half has more emotions and heart touching moments. Nani delivers solid performance as usual. Mrunal Thakur is so beautiful in some scenes and delivers good performance when required. Climax is good.
On technical front, this film is superior. Production values by Vyra entertainments are super rich, every frame is so vibrant.
The cinematography is literally excellent, the frames by Sanu Varghese are top class.The background score by Hesham Abdul Wahab is major asset of the film.
Positives:
– Nani, Mrunal and the Kid performance
– Outstanding songs
– Mellifluous background score
– Rich and vibrant visuals
Negatives
– Slow paced narration
– Some portions in first half are routine
Verdict :
A decent film with well written second half appeals to the family audience and class movie lovers. The cast, background score and songs are major asset. Every lyric you hear blends well with the narrative.On Flipside, as this genre typically ends up,this film is a slow paced one. Set your excpectations accordingly and watch it.

Dressed like a seasoned politician in white and white, Nani announced he would ensure that the income of theatres and the Kirana stores near the cinemas will be increased, in a satirical tone. He further guaranteed the movie would have enough cheering moments.
On the whole, the manifesto of Hi Nanna Party is humorous, and it is a good tactic when all the political parties are launching their own political strategies, ahead of polls in Telangana.
The makers of Hi Nanna are planning to launch the film’s trailer soon.
Nani’s Hi Nanna: Situation Based Album
Music is crucial for any film. Particularly, music plays a vital role in movies with feel-good concepts. Good songs will help movies to generate extra buzz before their release. Natural Star Nani who knows the importance of music takes the best care for his music, in terms of songs. The ‘Dasara’ star is coming up with Hi Nanna which has music by the sensational composer Hesham Abdul Wahab.
The makers so far released three songs which all became blockbusters. Curiously, each song is different from the other. While Samayama is a lively number which is about Nani briefing his feelings for Mrunal, the second one Gaaju Bomma is about the emotional bonding between Nani with his daughter Kiara Khanna, and the third song Ammaadi a love-filled soulful number that shows the beautiful journey of newlywed couple- Nani and Mrunal.
Each song has its own brilliance, in terms of composition, lyrics, vocals, and visual presentation. All three songs are situational-based, and they are trending on all the music charts.
The superb response for these three songs, set high expectations for the remaining songs in the album.
Ammadi from Hi Nanna: Soulful Romance
Natural Star Nani and Mrunal Thakur are working for the first time in Hi Nanna which is a romantic tale. The third single Ammadi from Hi Nanna is released and it a romantic lead on the lead pair. The romance is so soulful that Nani and Mrunal speaks with their eyes and expressions. Hesham Abdul Wahab comes with one more melodious tune and this is the third single out from Hi Nanna. The song also showcases the wedding of Nani and Mrunal and presents the happy moments post-wedding.
Nani and Mrunal’s chemistry is well presented on screen. Ammadi is one more impressive song from the film. The lyrics are meaningful and Shakthisree Gopalan’s vocals are apt. Hi Nanna directed by Shouryuv is slated for December 7th release. The film is extensively shot in Hyderabad, Mumbai, Goa and Ooty. Wyra Entertainment are the producers of Hi Nanna.
