Ever since the news of Bhaurao Karhade’s new film ‘Baban‘ was out a fair number of audiences & critics who loved ‘Khwada’ were excited for the film. But after the release though the critics were divided about the film the audiences have thoroughly loved the film. Especially in the rural parts of Maharashtra ‘Baban’ has re-created the ‘Sairat-Wave’!

The audiences can relate to the protagonist of the film & his surroundings very easily & hence ‘Baban’ has become such a huge hit. Moreover the amount of success for ‘Baban’ even after not belonging to any film studio like ‘Zee’ or ‘Colors’, is inspiring for many small scale filmmakers who wish to be successful by making Marathi films!

So far in 10 days ‘Baban’ has collected 8.5 crores all over Maharashtra. The music of the film too is superhit among the audiences. Along with the hero’s (Bhausaheb Shinde) performance Bhaurao Karhade’s own performance as hero’s father is being highly appreciated by the audiences!

For a film to be ‘Superhit’ it doesn’t need to have ‘glamour’ all the time, this has been proved by the latest success story of Marathi cinema ‘Baban’. Presented by ‘The Folk Confluence’, produced by ‘Chitraksh Films’ & directed by Bhaurao Karhade ‘Baban’ released all over Maharashtra on 23^rd March.

Based in rural background the protagonist of this film faces many obstacles but his self belief & ambitious attitude keeps him going. The audiences related themselves with the protagonist & hence are loving the film in big numbers. Bhausaheb Shinde who plays ‘Baban’ in this film has garnered praise from the audiences.

After seeing the response of audiences in theatres in the first weekend all over Maharashtra the shows of ‘Baban’ have now been increased from 400 to 500. Outside Mumbai the film has been houseful at many theatres & the total collections of ‘Baban’ in the first weekend are 3.25 Cr Rupees!

Baban Movie Review:

Bhaurao Karhade’s debut film ‘Khwada’ had many things going for it from a never before seen communal backdrop, to the raw texture of the film & a meaningful end. But ‘Khwada’ had a very little & compact conflict. Everything else was woven around it. The basic problem with ‘Baban’ is that it struggles to find an exact conflict. What is it really about? Is it a love story? Or the story of an underdog fighting against the system around? Or is it a quintessential ‘masala’ film with bits of romance, action, emotional drama & humour? Well it’s all the above at different instances, neither of them are strong enough to make the film impactful. And the craftsmanship essential to bind these three or more varieties of filmmaking is completely missing in ‘Baban’.

However the film still has a few heartfelt moments that reflect the reality in most of the rural regions in Maharashtra today. But they are scattered throughout the film & in totality they don’t really make a lasting impression.

Another major flaw is the lead actor’s limitations as an actor. Throughout the film we see him in 3-4 stock expressions & his body language too is similarly out of options. Comparatively the film has a decent supporting cast (of either non-actors or first timers), Bhaurao Karhade himself amuses us in the first half or so but later his monotonous performance of the carefree drunken father becomes a little boring. The actress who plays Baban’s mother is probably the finest of the lot, though with just a few dialogues she ends up shining the brightest mostly because of the way she emotes through her eyes.

The film keeps playing around in the narrative by matching every serious scene with the romantic track of the film, Baban is a college going student from the beginning to the end of the film. But the sole purpose for this college backdrop appears to be the romantic track, & for the introduction of the antagonist named ‘Abhay’. Now Abhay is backed by a wealthy politician cum gang leader. Now Abhay, Baban & the gang leader all belong to the same ‘community’ so the film isn’t a inter-community struggle in any way, this might be denoting that today there’s only one class difference; the poor & the rich. So thematically this track had so much depth! But sadly this track is ruined by repetition & even poor execution of ‘action’ scenes. They didn’t need to be as over the top as ‘south’ films but they still need to be well choreographed & executed.

Had ‘Baban’ wanted to be an out & out pot boiler, it could have well believed in a modern day Marathi ‘angry young man’ or it could have completely focused itself to be a dramatic love story. It could have still belonged to both worlds with better writing & crafting of the script, but it’s in no man’s land. The songs are in fact very melodious but in the scheme of things they add little to the film & instead keep disrupting the narrative of the film.

The most off putting aspect of ‘Baban’ for me was the resolution of the conflict/conflicts. The film ends up being forcefully over dramatic by using hard hitting realism as a device. It just doesn’t make any sense in the film’s basic conflict that felt interesting at some point, neither does it upheld the romantic angle of the film.

Overall:

‘Baban’ definitely has a strong influence of ‘Sairat’ in it’s romantic track, & Karhade’s own Khwada’s impact on the protagonist’s struggle against the higher (rich) class, yet ‘Baban’ could have groomed into an interesting crowd pleasing entertainer had it worked harder on paper.

Director of national award winning film ‘Khwada’, Bhaurao Karhade is all set with his second release ‘Baban’. ‘Baban’ is a rural love story with a political backdrop.

• Raw Flavour of the Film

Director Bhaurao Karhade is specifically known for projecting the raw reality around us in his films. And the trailer & songs of ‘Baban’’ reflect the same. The audiences feel more connected to a world that is very much like the world they live in. We are no longer fascinated by fancy fake world of love stories.

• The Rustic Hero – Bhaurao Shinde

Bhaurao Shinde continues his partnership with Bhaurao Karhade after ‘Khwada’. His rustic looks & his unique style of dialogue delivery is certainly one of the strengths of the film that will attract the audiences.

• The Social Connection

This film’s hero belongs to an economically backward class. His love story & his overall struggle is against the capitalist class who exploit the poor people. In a way this is a very important social connection with the audiences.

• The Music!

The songs of the film are already popular among the audiences & have become viral on social media especially the soulful soft romantic number ‘Saaj Hyo Tuza’ which also represents the soul of the film perfectly.

• The Authentic Language!

Since most of the actors including the hero of the film come from the same region where the story is set in the language they speak looks completely natural. It’s irritating to see urban actors imitating fake rural accents in our films this authenticity of ‘Baban’ makes it more exciting for the audiences.

Music of the much awaited Marathi film “Ek Hazarachi Note” was released by the Eminent Film Director Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra at Swatantraveer Savarakar Rashtriya Samarak Auditorium, Shivaji Park on 15th April 2014.

The Music Director of the film is Shailendra Barve, a National Award Winner was present along with singers Neha Rajpal, Vivek Naik and Amol Bawdekar on the occasion. Also present was Shrihari Sathe, the internationally acclaimed Indian Filmmaker, who is the Director and Producer of Ek Hazarchi Note. This movie is his first Indian venture.
The story of the movie has been written by Shrikant Bojewar who has also penned its 5 songs. Ek Hazarchi Note is a simple yet significant movie portraying the drama amongst the common folk, especially in rural areas, who tend to enjoy all the little things in life.

Star cast includes veteran actor Usha Naik with Sandeep Pathak, Shrikant Yadav, Ganesh Yadav, Pooja Nayak and Devendra Gaikwad. Ming Kai Leung (USA) is the Director of Photography and Art Director is Prashant Bidkar. While Kalyani Kulkarni Gugle is the Costume Designer and Make Up is by Santosh Gilbile. Ranjit Gugle and Shekhar Sathe are the Executive Producers. The sound designer is Thorsten Minning (Germany).

Shrihari Sathe said that the film revolves around the fact that poor folk have to face life as it comes with little control over what happens to them. Even when money comes, it brings problems. They unfortunately have to take things as they come and are not in a position to retaliate when wrong is done to them. People wielding power have inhuman control over their destiny.

“Ek Hazarachi Note” is produced by him under his banner “Infinitum Productions”. Prior to this Shrihari has produced two feature length films, both in the US. “Pervertigo” (2012) world premiered at the Warsaw Film Festival was also shown at Mumbai Film Festival.
