Re Raya Review (Marathi Movie):

Re Raya is a film that lacks any serious inclination towards getting into the soul of the subject. It uses a usual sports drama template & adds anti-system rants to make it seem important. The film fails to make any connect with the audiences & struggles at basic technical aspects of cinema too.

The film starts off with Aadesh’s childhood (Bhushan Pradhan) & how he struggled a bit & made a mark as an athletic. This whole childhood sequence has very little to do with the actual film. The actual starting point of the film is when Aadesh doesn’t win the prestigious ‘Shiv Chhatrapati Puraskar’ (an actual award given to sportspersons & athletes of Maharashtra). The obsession of Indian athletes with such government awards is openly known, however never does ‘Re Raya’ think of it that it’s principally wrong for athletes to be so obsessed with a mere award! It never even tries to explain the importance of this award to us! However it uses the ‘award’ as the most important plot device! Later when Aadesh trains young kids for different athletic games he even says that he wants them to win the award which he couldn’t win!

These 3 young kids belong to the lowest strata of Aadesh’s village. None of them have any inclination towards sports. However they are good at certain talents that are tailor made for certain athletic events. This idea was certainly interesting but sadly the film never really uses it to it’s benefit. It fails at the basic stage of execution. Throughout the film suffers from abrupt & bad cinematography & editing. Another basic aspect at which the film fails is in creating characters. Aadesh’s friend (Nayan Jadhav), love interest (Sanskruti Balgude) have absolutely nothing to do in the film other than just being there for Aadesh, yet they have fair amount of screen time! What they do for a living? Even that is never known!

The only little positive about ‘Re Raya’ is that it manages to show High Jump, Archery to decently acceptable extent. The kid who plays the high jump athlete is probably a high jump athlete himself. However the ‘archery’ part also seems silly when it tries to create drama out of the competition. And the third sport, running is ruined throughout the film by jerky slow motion. Not even once did I see a running event in it’s normal speed! What’s with this obsession?

Talking about the performances, Bhushan Pradhan has again sank to the bottom where he previously was a couple of years ago, some of his recent performances (especially ‘Amhi Doghi’) under capable directors have been good enough but now he’s unbearable in every dramatic dialogue that he delivers. Among the three kids Hansraj Jagtap is the only ‘actor’ & he does decent work. Abhijeet Chavan gets a few decent scenes where we he uses his usual presence! Sanskruti Balgude’s performance stays irrelevant to the film just like her character’s existence. It’s sad that even after being directed by a talented actor like Milind Shinde, the film doesn’t even manage to work on a performance level of it’s ensemble cast.

This film made me think, the convenient use of post film text slide to wrap up the narrative should be officially banned from our films! I mean how simple it is to just say this, this & that happened. Anyways even without the slide ‘Re Raya’ had no chance of becoming a lesser bad film!

Overall:

Sports film is an extremely connectable film genre. And Marathi audiences can easily associate with such stories, provided they are well made films with a decent story to tell.

A sports film is a very rare genre in Marathi cinema & even more rare is ‘athletics’ in our films. Actor turned director Milind Shinde directorial ‘Re Raya..Kar Dhava’ is that very rare film releasing in theatres from 20^th July. Presented by ‘Radhe Motion Pictures’ & produced by Ajay Sukheja this film stars Bhushan Pradhan, Sanskruti Balgude, Uday Tikekar, Prakash Dhotre, Vivek Chabukswar & Hansraj Jagtap.

This film tells the story of the journey of rural kids who aspire to be athletes. Actor Bhushan Pradhan plays their coach. Director Milind Shinde believes there’s a natural physical strength in kids born in rural areas they just need the right guidance to achieve their dreams. He also believes that the ‘sports’ genre is difficult to deal with but he has made a very realistic sports film.

Milind Shinde who has also been a well-known actor, says while directing the film, the actor within him was distant from him. He thought of the film from a director’s point of view throughout. He didn’t show his actors how to act by doing it himself. He instead let every actor explore their character on their own & hence their performances turned out very natural & organic, believes Shinde.

The ‘Bala’ song has excited us for the film. The song is shot in England & our favourite Swwapnil Joshi is seen doing hip hop dance for the first time. ‘Bhikari’ is a big-budget Marathi film that has all sorts of aspects that can entertain all kinds of audiences.

‘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.
