Ever since Ravi Jadhav’s ‘Rampaat‘ was announced the audiences where eagerly awaiting to know more about the film. Like many times before Ravi Jadhav has again collaborated with Zee Studios for this film. After giving countless hits like the ‘Timepass series, Balak Palak, & Natrang Ravi Jadhav & Zee have again come together to entertain us.

The teaser of the film is out now and the film feels like a total masala entertainer which is about dance! And of course there also seems to be a love angle! The actors who are playing these characters have been kept a secret in this teaser as we can only see their backside! The song used in the teaser is like a rap song which too is new for Marathi cinema!

Ravi Jadhav has both kinds of films, one which are extremely socially relevant & have moral statement to make like ‘Nude‘ & ‘Mitra’ while he as also made pure entertainers & sometimes he has married both the styles in films like ‘Balak Palak’ & ‘Natrang’! With ‘Rampaat‘ it would be interesting to see which side does Ravi Jadhav turn to! No matter where he turns we are sure he would succeed in it!

Zee Studio has further solidified its reputation as a studio that not only belts out one massive hit film after another but also supports meaningful and artistic ventures like its latest movie Nude. The Ravi Jadhav film, which has already won high praise in India, has now even bagged top honors at the prestigious New York Indian Film Festival by bagging the Best Film and Best Actress (Kalyanee Mulay) there.

Kalyanee Mulay’s performance as the mother who poses as a nude model for students of an art college, to fund her son’s education has been universally acclaimed. Critics have also praised the film’s message of giving dignity to the profession of nude modeling. The breathtaking visuals, mellifluous background score and performances by the rest of the cast are the other aspects for which the film received applause. And to top it all, Nude is also a success at the box office.

On this occasion, a rather pleased and satisfied business head of Zee Studios, Mangesh Kulkarni, said,“We are ecstatic with the kind of response our film Nude got to post it’s screening at NYIFF and especially proud for it to have bagged both Best Film and Best Actress awards. The award does not belong only to Nude but to everyone who dares to tell extraordinary stories through cinema”.

Director Ravi Jadhav, who was elated on winning the two big awards, said, “The film has always stood tall against all odds and there is a remarkably rugged renaissance across Marathi cinema. It is a triumph of an art”.

Nude (Chitra) Movie Review:

Nude is a film that needs to be understood in two ways. One that is the ‘literal’ way which is about a middle aged woman ‘Yamuna’ (Kalyanee Mulye) who after being betrayed by her husband lands up in Mumbai with her son & ends up being a nude model for fine art students at J.J. School of Arts (an iconic art college of our country). The other way is more within the lines. The alternate title used smartly in the promotions of the film ‘Chitra’ is a sign for this other allegory. An artist at the college (Om Bhutkar) who becomes a silent companion of Yamuna throughout her journey discovers ‘Chitra’. ‘Chitra’ represents the art work that he creates with the help of Yamuna & also the hidden meaning of ‘Nude’.

‘Chitra’ also represents ‘art’ in totality. ‘Art’ that means different things to different people. An exact same painting could evoke different emotions from beings of the same species. These emotions could bring out the inner most desires of that being. A painting of a woman without clothes would represent the ‘soul’ of humanity to some & to some it would seem sexually explicit. It’s sadly ironic that one couldn’t resist associating the famous Rabindranath Tagore quote told to us by our beloved Pu La Deshpande with ‘Nude’.

Tagore said, every painter watches the sunrise in a different way. Hence there are never too many sunrise portraits, there’s always room for more. In a scene (from Nude) when we first see 5-6 fine art students painting the same woman sitting in front of them, we could associate her with the sun. But then later we could also associate this ‘difference of perspective’ theory on people who get violently offended or sexually excited by ‘art’!

From the very first frame of ‘Nude’ we are enticed by the visuals. It’s like Ravi Jadhav & his marvellous technical team (the cinematographer, editors, & even sound artists) announcing to us loud & clear that their film is about ‘paintings’! Lively moving images (paintings) where the reality is not treated that stark to pull us out from the visual artistry. Yes the film establishes it’s world with great detailing, but makes sure that the film isn’t about the world.

The major portion being based in Mumbai & that too in Mumbai slums the film doesn’t focus on it. The focus is very much intimate. We are with ‘Yamuna’ all the time. Her son (Madan Deodhar) & her aunty (Chhaya Kadam) are important to Yamuna & hence to us. Yet their interaction with us is as much it is with Yamuna. Her aunt is the driving force in Yamuna’s life in the beginning of the film but soon Yamuna is in her own control. Her son is not a completely developed character on it’s own, & has a few logical errors in his arc, yet he delivers the final ‘kick’ in the film. Yes Nude has a fantastically hard hitting climax or a ‘takeout’ scene.

Kalyanee Mulye as Yamuna in the first few scenes appears to be putting up a show. Her mannerisms even appear strangely fake. But soon we ‘get’ her. We accept her rendition of ‘Yamuna’. Those mannerisms no longer feel strange, they feel very real. She gives a sublime performance in all aspects of acting. Her command over a unique rural dialect, her mannerisms, her body language & the way she emotes her inner trauma all of it is outstanding! Chhaya Kadam plays a character similar to what she played in ‘Sairat’ but does it with perfection. Other performances in the film are decent too.

The real heroes of ‘Nude’ (Chitra) are Ravi Jadhav, his technical team & even Sachin Kundalkar who has contributed in the screenplay & dialogues of the film. The long journey for ‘Nude’ is known to us all, but our long wait has been rewarded in every way. ‘Nude’ is a film that pleases our senses & yet gives us a bit unpleasant food for thought. It affects us in a way ‘art’ is supposed to affect!

Overall:

‘Nude’ (Chitra) deserves a watch from every creative soul & from those who adore ‘art’, understand it & imbibe it as a way of life.

Ravi Jadhav is one of the most influential personalities in Marathi cinema in recent times. He has achieved both critical & commercial success. With ‘Banjo’ Ravi Jadhav made his debut in Hindi cinema. However, he hasn’t stopped making Marathi films! ‘Nude’ is a film that has been hugely awaited which is also directed by Ravi Jadhav.

But this Diwali Ravi Jadhav gave us a huge surprise by revealing the logo & title of his upcoming Marathi film ‘Rampaat’. Moreover, this film is Ravi’s (Athaansh Communications) joint venture with Zee Studios.

After giving us ‘BP’, ‘TP’ & ‘TP 2’, Rampaat seems like another blockbuster entertainer by Ravi Jadhav. Another important aspect of Ravi Jadhav’s films is the marketing strategy, which also includes little things like logos, posters, teasers, etc. It would be exciting to see what exactly is ‘Rampat’ & what will be the star cast of the film.

As the Ganesh Festival season is approaching, most Marathi celebrities are getting busy with their preparations to welcome beloved Bappa.

Ravi Jadhav, director of Natrang and Timepass has recently shared a photo of his Ganesh idol on Facebook. Student of JJ School of Arts, Ravi himself makes clay Ganesh idol and his better half Meghana colours this idol for the festival of Ganesh Chaturthi. The idol is small in size, but it is an eco-friendly Ganesh and looks very elegant and cute.

Let’s hope all the fans of Ravi Jadhav take this initiative and start making eco-friendly Ganesh idols.
