Zee Studios’ ‘Ti Saddhya Kay Karte’ has turned out to be 2017’s first big success story for Marathi cinema. The magical romance in this Satish Rajwade directorial seems to have casted it’s spell on the audiences of Maharashtra!

In simply 3 days i.e 6th Jan to 8th Jan ‘Ti Saddhya Kay Karte’ has captured the box office & has collected over 6 crores! This film is a fine case study for filmmakers & producers all around India that if you give good content & promote it efficiently the audience will respond.

Last year Ankush Chaudhari gave us a well-made hit film like ‘Double Seat’. Since then Ankush is consciously making those choices which are both artistically good & appealable to the audience. This film also became popular for two debutants Abhinay Berde & Arya Ambekar, but the audiences have equally loved the little Hruditya & Nirmohee. Tejashri Pradhan was also refreshingly pleasing in this film & we want her do more films now!

The music of ‘Ti Saddhya..’ is making the audience fall in love all over again. The title of this film was considered unusual at first but it started a viral trend on social media where everyone was asking only one question ‘Ti Saddhya Kay Karte’ & now we have the answer!

Satish Rajwade is one of the new breed of Marathi directors who is known for his hit films like ‘Mumbai Pune Mumbai-1 and 2’, etc and now his most eagerly awaited film ‘Ti Sadhya Kaay Karte’ is up for release and we spoke to him about this film and this is what he has to tell us.

How did you get the subject of ‘Ti Sadhya Kaay Karte’?
Some of it is based on my own experiences and some what I have observed from other people like my friends and other sources and this is how I wrote the story of the film and it is very real and without anything filmy.

What is the film all about?
It is about love that happens to us in all stages of life, be it in childhood or adolescence or adulthood but the fact is that we can’t leave our childhood love behind and we always remember it or cherish it and there is always a curiosity factor about our childhood love which always lingers on. . The film also depicts what really goes out at the end when the two lead actors separate the two and the way events transpires between the two.

You are introducing Laxmikant Berde’s son Akshay in the film?
Yes. But I have not cast him for he being just Laxmikant Berde’s son but also because after he gave an audition , I thought he fitted the bill for the role and he agreed to do my film and he has suited the role like a glove. Also Ankush Chodhari has been just right for the character in the film and also singing star Aarya Ambekar is also perfect for her character in the film. Tejashri Pradhan also plays an important role in the film.

Where have you shot the film?
The film has been shot entirely in Mumbai and Pune locales.

What about the promotions of the film?
Zee Talkies and Nikhil Sane and producer Arvind Jog are looking about the promotions of the film.

And the music?
It has a wonderful score by Nilesh Mohrir and Vishwajeet Joshi.

Ti Sadhya Kay Karte Marathi Movie Review :

First things first, ‘Ti Saddhya Kay Karte’ is to Marathi Cinema what ‘The Shawshank Redemption’ was to Hollywood! Confused? Well it’s about using voice-over narrations! It’s not the first time that a Marathi film is using voice-over narration from the lead character, but it never made so much sense & added so much to the film! ‘Anurag’ voiced & played by the smashing Ankush Chaudhari justifies why this film is unusually titled ‘Ti Saddhya Kay Karte’. Yes this film is all about the “guy” & avoids perspectives from any other character in the film.

The first 15-20 minutes that are based on Anurag’s childhood are simply magical. Rajwade lingers on the little details which other films in Marathi before never paid heed to. Especially 90s kids will experience a euphoric wave of nostalgia in these 15-20 minutes. What was it like to fall in love? What was it like to compete for it? & what was it like to feel possessive about it & finally taking it for granted! Comparatively the rest of the film never matches this terrific start.

The weakest link of ‘Ti Saddhya..’ are both the debutants Arya Ambekar & Abhinay Berde. From overall body language to dialogue delivery they struggle, especially the singer-turned-actress. However the director doesn’t let them spoil the film except for one important scene. That important scene is supposedly the only scene in the film that creates a conflict. The rest of the film doesn’t really aspire for any conflict of sort but manages to please us. Yes the patent ‘light-hearted’ feel is ever present in this Rajwade film too.

Another flaw that hurts the film a bit is the stark differences in Anurag’s & Tanvi’s characters. Both these characters are portrayed by three different actors respectively representing three different stages of their lives. Unfortunately nothing in the way they react or behave or even look suggest us that they are the same person. The overall look of these actors too stays superficial & daily-soap like, a flaw that is ever present in almost all of Rajwade’s films. But the overall point that it makes & the content of this film makes us ignore most of these flaws.

This film provides a refreshing take on lost love. Like many Bollywood films it equates friendship with love, but in a rather complex way. There is no big suspense as such but we prefer not to talk about the ‘twist’ in this film. Ankush is smooth & extremely comfortable playing ‘Anurag’, his voiceover is beautifully crisp & adds flavor to otherwise average scenes, but the voiceover is masterfully avoided in some scenes too! Lengthwise Tejashri Pradhan has a smaller role but it’s her best performance on the silver screen by a distance. Her deliberate restrained approach to her performance makes sense & adds depth to her character. The little kids Hruditya & Nirmohee are perfectly casted & have given beautiful performances, much better than their teenage versions! The music is in safe hands & is hummable.

The best thing about ‘Ti Saddhya..’ is its uncertain nature. There is no formula to this film. It has its own little journey of sorts. For some audience this can be a turn-off as they could not relate it to their definition of ‘romance’ or ‘entertainment’. But for those who are patient & receptive this film will have a soothing effect. The final little conversation between ‘Anurag’ & ‘Tanvi’ simplifies many aspects about love, friendship & the idea of togetherness. We know it, it’s called cinematic liberty! It might not happen in real life, but that’s one of the reasons why films are made!

Along with Satish Rajwade this film also reflects the vision of Manaswini Lata Ravindra, the screenplay & dialogue writer. She deserves a fair share of credit for this film. We want her to write in the mainstream more regularly now!

Overall:

Watching ‘Ti Saddhya Kay Karte’ is a beautiful way to start your new year! Watch it with your loved ones. You might share few sweet memories about each other post the film!
