Nazar Andaaz follows the story of a visually impaired man who must choose an heir from the two househelps at his place. Whom will he choose? The story here is simple yet heartfelt and makes for a nice little watch. The screenplay of about a 100 minutes does make for a breezy watch although there are a few flaws here and there.

The drama opens with a voiceover wherein you get a fair idea that this film will be a bit of a tear jerker. Soon you are introduced to one of the three protagonists who is a pick pocketer, only to be rescued by a blind man who offers him a job at his place. The proceedings are slightly far-fetched were the foundation for the drama is a bit wobbly. If you are willing to keep aside a little part of the logic then the drama will keep you invested at the beginning.

The events unfolding are breezy with the drama designed to be more of a conversational one. But time and again you get a feeling that the heart of the drama is in its right place. The conversations that do unfold have a sense of philosophy and nostalgia to it. There are smaller heartwarming moments in the screenplay although the humour does fall flat to an extent.

The surprise roadtrip is almost like a metaphor taking you down memory lane that had a warm vibe to it instantly. Be it reconnecting with your lost love or reliving your childhood and having your favourite dish, the proceedings did feel like a long embrace. The protagonist who was visually impaired was reliving his life through the eyes of his two other “friends” in a life changing experience for the latter. I really did feel that some amount of effort could have been spent in giving a background of Bhavani(which was done through dialogues only). The audience would have been able to connect to her character a little better. But the events lead to an emotionally moving final act that does leave you with a bittersweet feeling even though you kind of do predict it given the first scene that is used as a foreshadow. But overall, the screenplay is decently well written.
