Ankit Gupta:

I want to say that "Nanhe Jaisalmer" is one of the best movies

of Bollywood. these types of the movies are the best.

In India, people only like high voice, in movies.

But the "Nanhe Jaisalmer" is an example of the movie which makes

Bollywood more strong. We need many of these kinds of movies.


In one way, I can say that "Nanhe Jaisalmer" is really a nice

Movie and no doubt in it at all! "Nanhe Jaisalmer" is surely a

HIT and one of the best movies of 2007.


I want to meet with both the lead actors of "Nanhe Jaisalmer"

namely, DWIJ YADAV and BOBBY DEOL.


"NANHE JAISALMER" is a HIT movie. I give it 10 Rating.


Thank You!

Nanhe Jaisalmer at Blogbharti:

[...] of all is the performance director Samir Karnik ‘extracts’ from young  Dwij Yadav. Meetu recommends Nanhe Jaisalmer. Linked by kuffir. Join Blogbharti facebook group. Do you know you can [...]

ANU:

dWIJ YADAV SPEAKS IN ANNOYINGLY HIGH PITCH: LEAVES YOU KINDA EXHAUSTED.

meetu:

Hey ANU, isn't that how kids are generally. High pitched and then leave you exhausted? :) What I liked about Dwij's performance is how he portrays the character's maturity as the story progresses. If you notice, the shrill voice takes a back seat in the latter half.

Vikram:

This was a bad movie indeed. Child artist shined by the way Bollywood at Top 10 Bollywood

flowers:

Great Movie … going to watch a one more time

Doonwati Singh:

I love this movie, it's wonderful and Nanhe is a great child star. Both Bobby Deol and Nanhe are very good actors.

Raman Aurora:
