School College Ani Life

Story: The story explores the life of young Nirvaan, highlighting the incidents that contribute towards his eventual success. It elucidates the highs and lows of life along with the people who shape his journey.
Review: Director Vihan Suryavanshi and Karan Parab are becoming a bankable duo when it comes to bringing aesthetic heartfelt stories to life. The two collaborate on 'School College Ani Life', backed by Rohit Shetty, after 'Roop Nagar Ke Cheetey', and take you on a nostalgia ride that is sure to rekindle sweet memories.
Nirvaan is a talented child who gets into misadventures with his friends. Life catches up to them when Nirvaan’s financial standing impedes his participation in school events. In a heart warming display of fortitude, his friends and his mentor Ismael Sheikh (Jitendra Joshi) help uplift his spirits. Post a time jump, we see the boys, now in college, deal with love, loss and a lot more.

The film offers multiple moments of pure joy and emotion in a visual treat of an experience. Suryavanshi’s unique style of creating a world with bright colours and maxed out emotions amps an average story into a cinematic experience.

Tejasswi Prakash essays her role beautifully and has a beautiful screen presence. While Parab as Nirvaan has one too many slow motion hero sequences, there is no denying the ineffable presence the young actor has on screen.

The movie does wobble in the second act with a cliched love story, but also corrects it with a worthwhile redemption arc. The child actor playing the younger Nirvaan, and Jitendra Joshi both add a lot of heart to the film. The art direction and cinematography is top notch.

In short, School College Ani Life' is definitely worth a trip to the theatres this weekend.
