‘Swami Tinhi Jagacha..Bhikari’ is an upcoming Marathi film that will soon be in theatres. Starring Swwapnil Joshi in a never seen before avatar, however in ‘Ye Ata’ a romantic song starring Swwapnil & Rucha Inamdar he looks in the audience’s favorite romantic mood! This song might work as a breather in the otherwise emotionally intense film.

Popular choreographer & filmmaker Ganesh Acharya is entering into Marathi industry with ‘Bhikari’ as a director. His vision is truly evident in the video of this song. Such locations are not really a norm in Marathi cinema. Ganesh Acharya truly has transformed Marathi cinema in some way.

Swwapnil Joshi has been the favorite of Marathi audiences with numerous hits like Duniyadari & Mumba-Pune-Mumbai series. With ‘Bhikari’ is returning to rule over the Marathi audiences this time by telling them an emotional, heartfelt tale of the love & sacrifice of a son for his mother.

Ganesh Acharya’s Marathi film debut as director ‘Bhikari’ starring Swwapnil Joshi & Rucha Inamdar has already been highly awaited. The trailer of the film was recently out & its canvas is so huge that we can’t remember the last Marathi film that was made on this big budget. But even more powerful appears the emotional context of this film & Swwapnil’s heartfelt performance.

The film has many different genres compiled together. Drama, action, musical & romance are the prominent ones. The main conflict revolves around Swwapnil Joshi’s sacrifice for his mother. Even in the ‘Magu Kasa’ song we saw a pandit asking Swwapnil whether he can beg for his mother. Now we understand what it really meant.

Hence the title ‘Bhikari’ & the tagline ‘Swami Tinhi Jagacha..’ suits the story really well. Swwapnil Joshi is seen in an altogether different avatar in this film & his fans will definitely be excited by it. The music of this film too has a lot of soul.

‘Bhikari’ releases on 4^th August all over Maharashtra!

The title of ‘Swami Tinhi Jagacha..Bhikari’ is based on a Marathi proverb, ‘Swami Tinhi Jagacha Aaivina Bhikari’. There’s a deep meaning to this. And the new song ‘Magu Kasa’ that is out now reflects the same thought that is an essential part of the film.

Sung by our favourite Ajay Gogavale ‘Magu Kasa’ is a song that instantly connects to us. We all have a special bond with our mother & this bond is reflected in this song. Along with that we can also watch Swwapnil Joshi in a completely different avatar. Famous for his chocolate boy looks Swwapnil was never seen before in this avatar. This film promises to be a milestone in Swwapnil’s career.

The lyrics of this song are written by Guru Thakur & the composition is credited to Vishal Mishra. This film marks popular bollywood choreographer & filmmaker Ganesh Acharya’s entry into Marathi as a filommaker. ‘Bhikari’ releases on 4^th August & along with Swwapnil also stars Rucha Inamdar, Kirti Adarkar, Guru Thakur, Sayyaji Shinde, Milind Shinde & Pradeep Kabra in important roles.

Ranjan Marathi Movie Review :

The problem with our films is that we think too much for the audiences. We shamelessly take them for granted. We assume they like certain aspects & we keep hammering them with those. So they like teenage romance? They like a social message? They like songs? What more, comedy? Fine, we’ll give them all that & they will come in huge numbers at the theatres! Supposably not!

We understand that people do like these aspects but not before the actual story of the film. Though the story of Ranjan doesn’t really make any sense, but in worst case scenario if someone still wants to make a film on it, they could have wrapped it up in less than 40 minutes. A boy falls in love with a girl in his class, & is ready to do anything for her. The girl & the boy both are in 9^th standard, but they display an IQ that would appear lower even for 5^th standard kids. Fine, then there’s a cute fat kid, our hero’s friend who actually gets more dialogue & screen time as he is played by a known child artist (Ganya from Elizabeth Ekadashi). The girl puts a condition to the boy that gives rise to the main conflict of the film. Trust me you don’t want to know the condition or challenge!  

The first big issue is how insensitive the film is to the girl. In such love stories are we supposed to believe, it’s fine for boys to think of girls as objects of desire! In one of the dialogues, a boy mentions how boys should keep asking a girl, consistently until she says yes. Nowhere do we get a chance to understand what would the girl be going through? Is her mental trauma of least importance to the film? It seems to be.

So the challenge involves a task for which our hero needs to be inspired by Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj! ‘Ganimi Kawa’ is the tactic he utilizes. The majority of second half focuses on the most redundant details through the implementation of this tactic. The film was supposed to make us laugh through all this but it simply bores us.

Among the supporting cast that include Bharat Ganeshpure, Vidyadhar Joshi &BhauKadam; they are simply playing their own caricatures, but still Bhau Kadam manages to interest us in some of his typical antics. It seems almost impossible for Marathi filmmakers today to make movies without Bhau! Bhau knows that & his self-confidence is reflected in his screen presence.

Ranjan has four songs, well decent if judged separately away from the film. In the film they add nothing at all & are simply there because, well the audience loved Sairat, didn’t they? They are sung by four important Marathi singers of today’s times, an attempt that might actually attract a few audiences towards this film.

Last but not the least we can’t help but feel ridiculed about the title of this film! Why is it titled ‘Ranjan’? Well, there’s an actual ‘Ranjan’ in the film but its purpose of existence is almost impossible to justify. Does this ‘Ranjan’ symbolize anything? We believe it symbolizes a stock of endless clichés this film has tried to use!

Overall:

‘Ranjan’ is a film that symbolizes everything that’s wrong with Marathi cinema today. I would suggest all current & aspiring filmmakers, artists & writers to study this film very carefully, because we really need better contributions from your side, in the immediate as well as far future.

Laageer Jhaala Re- a song from the upcoming film Ranjan has become immense hit among netizens. Ranjan is a love story of two teenagers, but it also has a social angle. The song also introduces new romantic pair- Yash and Gauri. The song is written by Vaibhav Joshi and composed by Narendra Bhide. The song is sung by Ajay Gogavale.

The song is picturized on Yash Kulkarni and Gauri Kulkarni. This is a soft romantic song and echoes the love from the childhood. The lyrics (by Vaibhav Joshi) are very fresh and convey the emotions of the one-sided love very nicely. Narendra Bhide has composed the song very simply yet beautifully. Ajay Gogavale’s rustic voice gives a perfect rural touch to this song. The picturisation is done in scenic village locations. The soothing frames and slow taking of the song makes it a perfect love ballad for this valentine.

Ranjan is produced by Ravindra Kailas Harpale under the banner of Shree Mahaganpati Entertainment. The film is directed by Prakash Janardhan Pawar and dialogues are by Prakash Pawar and Nilesh Bhosale.

Ajay Gogavale has earned lots of love & greatness through his work as a composer alongside Atul. Ajay’s voice too is an integral part of their work. But now very soon, Ajay’s collaboration (as a singer) with another composer is coming to please us. Narandra Bhide is that luck composer! The song is titled ‘Lagira Zhala Ra’.

Recently the motion teaser of movie ‘Raanjan’ was released on social media & this surprise was revealed. In that motion teaser we can catch a glimpse of Ajay singing ‘Lagira Zhala Ra’. The lyrics of this song are written by Vaibhav Joshi.

‘Raanjan’ is a love story about youngsters & is directed by Prakash Janardhan Pawar. This might be the very first instance when Ajay is singing on someone else’s compositions. ‘Lagira Zhala Re’ sounds just as magical as every Ajay song we have loved before. Let’s hope from now on we can listen to his beautiful voice more often in Marathi films!
