मराठी चित्रपटसृष्टीत होत असलेल्या वैविध्यपूर्ण व कल्पक प्रयोगांना मराठी प्रेक्षकांनी भरभरून प्रतिसाद दिला आहे. मायबाप प्रेक्षकांनी असाच प्रतिसाद नवीन चित्रपटांनाही द्यावा, यासाठी नेहमीच वेगवेगळ्या क्लृप्त्या अवलंबल्या जातात. सोमवारी पुणे येथील फर्ग्युसन महाविद्यलयाजवळ अभिनेत्री आणि दिग्दर्शिका मृण्मयी देशपांडे, सुव्रत जोशी, सायली संजीव या कलाकारांनी हातात फलक घेवून रस्त्यावर उतरत जेव्हा रसिकांना चित्रपटगृहाकडे यायचे आवाहन केले, तेव्हा सर्वांच्याच भुवया उंचावल्या.

मराठी अस्मिता जागी व्हावी, मराठी भाषेच्या संवर्धनासाठी मराठी प्रेक्षकांनी या भाषेतील कलाकृतींना पाठबळ द्यावे, अशी अपेक्षा सर्वत्र व्यक्त होत असताना या होतकरू कलाकारांनी उचलेल्या पावलाची सर्वत्र जोरदार चर्चा आहे.

सोमवारी २ मार्च २०२० रोजी दुपारी १२ वाजता ही मंडळी गुडलक हॉटेल, फर्ग्युसन महाविद्यालय मार्ग, गुडलक चौकाजवळ, डेक्कन जिमखाना येथे चक्क फलक घेवून उभे असलेले पाहायला मिळाले. त्यांच्या हातात अत्यंत कल्पक व लक्ष वेधून घेणारे फलक होते. “आमच्या सिनेमाच्या प्रमोशनसाठी आम्ही तुमच्याकडे आलोय, तुम्ही थिएटरमध्ये तरी या…”, “आमचा सिनेमा तुम्ही आई-बाबा, मित्र-मैत्रिणी, प्रियकर-प्रेयसी ते अगदी तुमच्या ‘एक्स’सोबतही पाहू शकता”, “मराठी लोकांनी थिएटरमध्ये जाऊन सिनेमा पहिलाच नाही तर मराठी सिनेमा चालणार कसा?’’, असे फलक घेऊन हे कलाकार हमरस्त्यात उभे होते. लोकही त्यांच्याकडे कुतूहलाने पाहत होते आणि चित्रपटासाठी येण्याचे आश्वासनही या कलाकारांना देत होते. मृण्मयी देशपांडे दिग्दर्शित आणि सुव्रत जोशी, सायली संजीव अंजली पाटील आणि अंकित मोहन यांच्या प्रमुख भूमिका असलेला ‘मन फकिरा’ येत्या ६ मार्च रोजी प्रदर्शित होत आहे.

• Review: Miss U Mister
• Director : Sameer Hemant Joshi
• Star Cast : Siddharth Chandekar, Mrunmayee Deshpande, Dipti Lele, Rajan Bhise, Savita Prabhune, Avinash Narkar, Radhika Vidyasagar & Hrishikesh Joshi
• Screenplay: Sameer Joshi
• Director: Sameer Joshi

Quick Viewpoint: There isn’t a major flaw in the film that one can specify and say this is where it all goes wrong, but the film still goes wrong!

What Works? 

• As said earlier, the film isn’t really bad. It has relatable characters performed convincingly by good actors, it has a sense of belonging to the contemporary times in both spirit as well as the way it looks visually.
• The film would appeal to a wider audience both couples and the family audiences.
• Technically the film is well directed and the music too compliments the emotions of the film.

What Fails? 

• The writing suffers from repeating the same conflict again & again making them redundant. Moreover we have no real emotional attachment with the characters to feel anything as such about them!
• The film’s main device is long distance relationships. But it hardly gets into the skin of the subject. All it does is exploit the surface of it that too being repetitive. Making a melodramatic love story out of the subject!
• When looked objectively at the characters and their lives we feel there’s nothing really problematic going on. Yet the film wishes to dramatize even the littlest of things, which makes the drama look forceful. A smarter perspective could have made this exact plot workable and the film turning into a subtle light-hearted take on modern relationships.
• By the end of the film, it almost becomes a jumble. It becomes incredibly difficult to understand what exactly is the point of the film! The film exploits lesser important plot points into sudden climax resolutions again for extra forceful dramatic touch!

Final Verdict: If you are used to watching sloppy melodramatic love stories ‘Miss U Mister’ might appeal to you, for others it might be a problematic watch.

Mrunmayee Deshpande & Siddharth Chandekar have come together after a gap of 10 years! This long gap in their professional relationship is now being filled with a hardcore romantic drama about long distance relationships! We present to you 5 important reasons why we think ‘Miss U Mister‘ is an absolute must watch!

• The Chemistry Between Siddharth & Mrunmayee

From the trailers one can make out that even after not working together for around 10 years the chemistry between this lead pair is very charismatic! Both Mrunmayee & Siddharth began their acting careers together with inter collegiate theatre & later in the T.V. and hence they understand each other’s process very well which leads to a better performance from both, of course the director Sameer Hemant Joshi too must deserve some credit!

• Hardcore Romance Drama is Rare in Marathi Today

While Marathi cinema is flourishing day by day with diverse content & different genres. In the romance genre we have seen many rom coms in recent times that the audiences have thoroughly enjoyed too. But there have been very few hardcore romantic dramas made in Marathi in recent times. We as audience are starving for this kind of serious romantic films and ‘Miss U Mister’ promises to satisfy that need of ours!

• Relatable Subject of Long Distance Relationship 

In today’s career oriented world (both urban and rural) couples who live together in the same house hardly find any time for each other, it’s like they too are in some kind of long distance relationship! Then imagine how difficult it would be for couples who are actually at a distance from each other! Hence this subject becomes extremely relatable to us the audiences!

• Emotionally Strong 

Mrunmayee Deshpande’s character in the film is not typical in any way. We see modern day girls who are extremely practical in their life. This practicality has been translated on the screen too in our films, but Mrunmayee’s character Kaveri is a different girl from all of these! She takes all her life decisions from her heart and hence is in the relationship with all her heart too!

• The Talented Star Cast 

Along with Siddharth & Mrunmayee the film also stars Rajan Bhise, Savita Prabhune, Avinash Narkar, Radhika Vidyasagar, Dipti Lele and in a surprising cameo Hrishikesh Joshi. All these actors are known for their subtle yet emotionally powerful performances! All of their contribution would surely make the film a wholesome family friendly entertaining experience!

‘Miss U Mister’ is in theatres from today, so book your tickets right now!

Miss U Mister is a romantic drama film releasing in theatres this week on 28th of June. The film stars Mrunmayee Deshpande & Siddharth Chandekar in lead. Mrunmayee & Siddharth will be seen sharing the screen after a long time! They both started their careers together, did their first serial together and now for the first time are working in a film together!

Mrunmayee Deshpande believes ‘Miss U Mister’ is a film that isn’t just for the urban audiences and it can be equally relatable to all. The film deals with long distance relationships and how they effect the people involved in it emotionally! People from the rural regions too migrate to cities with their partners in villages & hence the story is relatable and emotionally connectable to all, believes Mrunmayee!

This story is of Varun (Siddharth) & Kaveri (Mrunmayee) who are deeply in love with each other but just after some time after their marriage Varun has to move to London for 18 months for his job & Kaveri is finding it difficult to assimilate that fact! He does move to London, and then they start living in a long distance relationship! The film explores the many ups and down in their relationship after that. ‘Miss U Mister’ promises to be a very relatable modern day romantic drama that our audiences would cherish!

Miss U Mister a modern day romance starring Siddharth Chandekar, Mrunmayee Deshpande & Deepti Lele is set to release on 28th June.

The film has a song sung by Sonu Nigam. After its recent release, the song has received overwhelming response I’m terms of likes and hits.  “Mala mahit aahe ase honar ahe, fulanni malavlelyacha Ruth yenar aahe. Tula Mee pahato mhanun…” is the song with intensive wording and melodious tune. Sonu Nigam has called it one of the best songs Omit his life.

The song sung Sonu Nigam has been composed by Aalap Desai a leading music director from the Gujarati industry.  The song has been very beautifully penned by lyricist Vaibhav Joshi.

Sonu Nigam says “that the song is like a prayer. “I have sung many popular songs in my life. But it wouldn’t be an exaggeration if I say this is one of the best songs of my life. Aalap Desai has done a wonderful job. Even the person who does understand meaning of the wording will be mesmerized by the song. I am lucky to have this song as a singer. This song will have a special place in my singing career,” he said.

Aalap Desai said, “We have tried to give something different and unique. It is an attempt to express meaningful things by using a very few instruments. The background has been created by using very limited instruments such as Harmonica, Guitar, Harp etc. The music lovers will get a soothing experience from the song

Releasing on 28th June Siddharth Chandekar & Mrunmayee Deshpande starrer ‘Miss U Mister‘ deals with a very relatable conflict for today’s youth generation. The film marks the comeback of Siddharth-Mrunmayee pair who started their careers together through different mediums like Theatre & serial.

The trailer of the film clearly establishes the fact that this film speaks about long distance relationships. While long distance relationships is well known phenomenon today as a society too we seem to have accepted it. But that doesn’t mean it is easy for the couple who are in an actual long distance relationship!

More than the physical distance it’s the emotional distance that is difficult to handle for such couples. Both Siddharth & Mrunmayee seem to be portraying that emotional conflict effectively in the trailer. In such relationships one of the two is more vulnerable than the other & Mrunmayee’s character seems to be that one in this story! Along with the lead pair the film also stars Rajan Bhise, Savita Prabhune & Deepti Lele in important roles.
