Nari Nari Naduma Murari X Review: Sankranthi releases have been long associated with high expectations, crowded theatres, and opinions from the audience right at the moment of release. Thus, this year is no exception. The big release and the struggle for the box office did not prevent Sharwanand from sneaking behind the scenes and coming out with Nari Nari Naduma Murari for the festive race. The romantic comedy, which hit the theatres on January 14, has already created a buzz among the fans who link the actor with no other than Sankranthi hits of the past. As the early morning shows were over, social media was immediately turned into a platform for first impressions, thus giving the audience a clearer picture of what to expect from this comedy entertainer.

Another person who watched the movie shared the same thought, saying that the story does not hurry, but it is still interesting enough not to let the audience get bored.

First half garners mixed reactions
While the first half of the film garners mixed reactions, the second half appears to be the time when the movie truly gets its grip. Many users have noted that the post-interval section is very fast and funny almost the whole time.
