Namaste! Here’s a review on one
of the most acknowledged film which I think has done and messaged the same but
on exceptionally important directive about the helplessness of the old aged due
to the in-competency of their juveniles in handling them in their second
child-hood.
This piece of art is directed by
Satish Rajwade, a writer, actor and director. Nana Patekar is (as Senior
Inspector Maruti Nagargoje) an illustrious, multi-dimensional actor in the
forefront. Sumeet Raghavan(as Rahul) and Iravati Harshe (as Bhakti) are the two
other major leading roles around which the story goes. The film is produced by
Ajay Devgn, and many others including Nana. The three important characters of
the film Maruti, Rahul and Bhakti have done their jobs quiet well. Maruti is an
inspector from a village who is a smart with rural English ascent. Rahul is a
lawyer and Bhakti is a professor in a college. There is also another character
due to which the story takes plays and which as I said earlier is the double
role of Nana sir. This mysterious character is not seen in the trailor of the
film nor is it brightly mentioned by any of the other characters during their
promotion programs. Now I would like to break the ice, it is the father of
Rahul ‘Aba’ who mangle’s down from the balcony. Because of this the inspector
runs the investigation and the suspense & thriller part of the film starts
for towards who the needle of accusation point towards. At the same time Aba is
in hospital and is recovering from the incident. The story then gains more
twist and turn which droves ourselves with the couple and certainly we get to
now why the underlining statement in the poster states “Ha shaitan batlit
mavnar nay(This demon will not fit in the bottle)”though the translation will not
get the essence which the Marathi sentence gives. But the synopsis is that the
inspector wants to make realize the brunt which the old aged face on our
behavior to the couple and also to the audience. The story is quite amazing and
trustworthy. It does not let us feel that here it is extended but keeps us
enclosed with our own murderer. In the last half an hour we get to the real
motive of the inspector and the film and puts us in a dilemma- are we giving
enough to the old aged in our house? Shooting it in just 40-45 days is another
marvel. Nana Patekar is mostly expected with such roles and is seen as socially
sensitive actor with extensive experience in Hindi and Marathi film industry.
The acting and direction both have done commendable job giving the exact impact
of the film.
In
their launch events the team has always emphasized upon their co-ordination and
supreme planning which was their secret of success. These types of films in
Marathi are very new to my generation and giving a social message in the form
of thriller films is a unique attempt.
