Subodh Bhave is continuing where he left after the super success of ‘Ani..Dr. Kashinath Ghanekar’ with his upcoming film ‘Ek Nirnay’. Along with Subodh the film stars other senior actors like Vikram Gokhale & Suhas Joshi. The film also stars Madhura Velankar-Satam in a never before seen role!

The trailer of the film intrigues us about the subject of the film. While the subject is not revealed completely it gives us some hints that it is about a doctor’s (played by Madhura Velankar-Satam) need to become a mother. And somehow this seems to have shattered the married life of a couple.

What twists & turns will occur in the story needs to be seen in theatres! While audiences are currently Subodh Bhave in Zee Marathi’s ‘Tula Pahate Re’ they are now again being treated with Subodh Bhave’s another dramatic performance in ‘Ek Nirnay’! The film releases on 18th January 2019!

Swapnil Joshi & Mukta Barve starer ‘Mumbai Pune Mumbai 3‘ continues where the first two films of the franchise left. In the first film, we saw Mumbai & Pune falling in love with each other, in the second film they got married & now they are having a baby! The film captures the purest feeling of turning parents! And how it brings a couple together even more closely when they turn parents!

The film believes in the philosophy that the husband too becomes a father from the moment his wife is pregnant! Motherhood is something that both the mother & father have to go through! We have never seen any Marathi film before that celebrates this beautiful little journey of motherhood. Those 9 months are full of emotions & eventful in anyone’s life & the film seems to have captured all of it!

The film is directed by Satish Rajwade who entertained the audiences with ‘Aapla Manus’ earlier this year! From the second part of the franchise, the film introduced more characters representing the families of both parties which will also be seen in the third film. Actors like Prashant Damle, Suhas Joshi, Savita Prabhune & Vijay Kenkre give a solidity to Mumbai Pune Mumbai franchise! ‘Mumbai Pune Mumbai’ hits theatres very soon on 7th December!

The first teaser of Swapnil Joshi & Mukta Barve starer ‘Mumbai Pune Mumbai 3‘ set the internet on fire! The fans of Swapnil, Mukta & Mumbai Pune Mumbai were amazed by it! And now the first song of the film has been revealed! ‘Kuni Yenar Ga’ captures the essential feeling of what it’s like when a woman in the family is about to become a mother! The happiness is not just for the father & the mother but for the entire family.

The franchise starring Swapnil Joshi & Mukta Barve got an extended star cast in the sequel & now in the third film all those family members that include Prashant Damle, Suhas Joshi, Savita Prabhune, Vijay Kenkre & others have become very important in the film’s story & for the audiences! While the first film was a crispy entertaining romantic comedy, the second film was an emotional drama & now the third film seems to be a film about motherhood & how it changes the relationship between the couple!

Satish Rajwade directorial ‘Mumbai Pune Mumbai 3’ also marks a comeback of sorts for the popular music composer Nilesh Mohrir who seems to be back & with same brilliance in his music. ‘Kuni Yenar Ga’ is penned by Devayani Karve-Kothari & Pallavi Rajwade & sung by Hrishikesh Ranade, Aanandi Joshi, Saee Tembhekar, Jaydeep Bagwadkar, Varsha Bhave, Yogita Godbole & Mandar Apte.

Cast: Ashok Saraf, Dilip Prabhawalkar, Shivaji Satam, Vikram Gokhale, Satish Alekar, Santosh Juvekar, Sharad Ponkshe, Uday Tikekar, Manjiri Phadnis & Deepti Lele

Director: Mahesh Manjrekar

Quick Viewpoint: The trailer, teaser & posters of ‘Mi Shivaji Park’ sell a completely different film! It feels like a deep intellectual drama that eventually turns out to be a poorly structured revenge drama with a forceful social context to it.

What Works?

• The theme. Though nothing new in it & having similarities to Manjrekar’s own ‘Virrudh’ (the Amitabh Bachchan starrer) it still somehow is very relatable to the audiences.
• Further rendition of the basic theme, the conceptual idea of retired old men recreating a version of a court case on their own.
• It’s just satisfying to watch stalwarts like Ashok Saraf, Dilip Prabhawalkar, Vikram Gokhale & others share screen together. Though Dilip Prabhawalkar stands out as he doesn’t miss a single beat in his performance like always!

What Fails?

• The starting conflict that initiates the narrative is so loosely set up that the there is no emotional relativity for the audiences towards the principal characters of the film.
• Absolutely horrendous silly mistakes in the detailing of the film. For e.g: In a flashback sequence set in either late 90s or early 2000s we see characters using smart phones!
• Tonnes of logical errors caused due to convenient twists & turns given to the narrative.
• The film ridicules Gandhism by unnecessarily connecting it to situations that doesn’t really have anything to do with it! For eg: a dialogue says how Gandhi followers who later became politicians resorted to violence against public agitations. The whole idea of a governing body & it’s defence is not a by product of Gandhism, it need not be associated with it.
• By the climax the film becomes a complete circus that jumbles up the whole socio-political message it wanted to endorse. You leave the theatre being clueless about what exactly did the film wanted to say?

Final Verdict: ‘Mi Shivaji Park’ suffers from serious lack of inspiration in saying something new or creating something of it’s own. It seems to just be a vehicle for the hugely respected star cast to come together.    

Rating: 1.5/5

The post ‘Mi Shivaji Park’ Quick Review: Mahesh Manjrekar’s Socio-Political Circus! appeared first on MarathiStars.

On the occasion of Mahatma Gandhi Jayanti the trailer of upcoming Marathi film ‘Me Shivaji Park‘ was posted on the Internet! It isn’t a coincidence that the trailer is released on Gandhi Jayanti! The trailer effectively presents a debate on values & principles of Mahatma Gandhi. Can those values be useful in today’s world! Are ‘Truth’ & ‘Non-violence’ still powerful weapons to fight injustice?

Different characters in the film portrayed by acting heavyweights like Ashok Saraf, Dilip Prabhawalkar, Vikram Gokhale, Shivaji Satam & Satish Alekar represent the angst of the middle class against the injustice around. The trailer of the film suggests that these retired old men decide to change things on their own, & for that they probably resort to violence. Is this the right way? Dilip Prabhawalkar’s character who is a Gandhi follower says he might even stand against his friends if he had too!

This conflict between two opposite value systems & the solid star cast of the film promises that ‘Me Shivaji Park’ is a must watch film! Moreover the film is directed by Mahesh Manjrekar! After a long time in Marathi cinema we are seeing a strong social thriller! It also has the backdrop of political ideologies of our country! ‘Me Shivaji Park‘ hits theatres on 18th October!
