It has become a traditional practice now to announce your resolutions for the new year. And, our Marathi Stars including Marathi film and TV stars are also part of it. It is a common question asked to most of them during the end of previous year, as to what is their resolution for the new year and each one of them have disclose their plans.

Kranti Redkar, Upendra Limye

Kranti Redkar, whose two films ‘Karaar‘ and ‘Truckbhar Swapna‘ are releasing early 2017, feels that she should focus more on time management, besides paying more attention on doing something different, instead of getting typecast. With her characters in these two films, she can say so.

Upendra Limaye, who is known for his award winning films ‘Jogwa‘ and ‘Yellow‘ , is also of the opinion that an actor should attempt variety of roles through new wave films. His next film ‘Kshitij‘ is the best example of what he expects from a film. Upendra is playing a realistic character of a farmer in this film.

Prarthana Behere, Namrata Awate

Popular actress Prarthana Behere frankly doesn’t believe in new year resolutions. Actually she prepares a list of 10 priorities and pays attention on achieving them one by one. But, this year she is going to be very particular about collecting all the information before signing a project. At the same time, she is excited about her next releases starting with ‘Fugay‘ followed by her other films, shooting of which has already been completed.

Well Known TV actress Namrata Awate , known for her perfect timing for comedy, will be very serious about losing her weight, during the new year. At present her serial ‘Ga Sahajani‘ is on the air.

Mukta Barve and Ajay Purkar, Marathi play ‘Code Mantra‘

Mukta Barve‘s gripping Marathi play ‘Code Mantra‘ has already played 100 shows in just six month’s time, ever since it was launched in June 2016. Incidentally, besides playing the lead role of a military law expert, Mukta Barve is also producer of ‘Code Mantra’, along with other co producers. This play being very close to her heart, you find the finest presentation on Marathi stage, with wonderful performances coming from her and her co stars like Ajay Purkar, Umesh Jagtap, Kaustubh Diwan and many others totaling about 40. The play has special significance, as it is set on the backdrop of an unusual happening in Maratha regiment of Indian Army.

On the first day of this new year, this play was performed at Borivali’s Prabodhankar Thackeray Auditorium and drew a full house, which obviously boosted the morale of the entire team of ‘Code Mantra’. We are all aware about the acting skills of talented Mukta Barve ; but it was nice to see the best from another talented actor Ajay Purkar, whom TV home viewers only recognize as a character actor. Through this play, Ajay plays the lead character of Col. Prataprao Nimbalkar a responsible and powerful Army Officer of Indian Army. Obviously, when both these important characters come face to face on the stage, we find the exchange of fire through words, which have been cleverly captured by the director Rajesh Joshi a well Known director of Gujarathi plays and TV serials and making his debut in Marathi through this play.

‘Code Mantra‘, which has a good subject, has been cleverly presented by the director, to hold the audience to their seats. Through this play, the audience come to know about different ranks of Indian Army and their functions. But, what captures the audience is the presentation of the script. The post interval session is more gripping and filled with suspense, as we notice many interesting happenings. All in all, the cast and technical support team display an excellent team work. Besides wonderful performances by all the artistes, the superb background music, excellent lighting and above all, the captivating realistic set design make ‘Code Mantra’ a worth watch. Don’t miss it.

Rating: ★★★★

Dilip Prabhawalkar, Bhau Kadam in zala Bobhata. Arya Ambekar, Abhinay Berde in Tee Sadhya Kay Kartey

After taking a long break, during the last fortnight of 2016, Marathi films will now begin their new year with two simultaneous releases on coming Friday. One failed to understand, why none of the Marathi films preferred to release films during last two weeks, when most of the Marathi dramas did good business during this period. Even Hindi film like ‘Dangal’ earned record collections during the fag end of the year 2016. In fact, no releases from Marathi did help the record earnings of ‘Dangal’.

The last ten days of 2016 were holidays for schools and colleges, which was the right time for the Marathi films, to grab this opportunity. But, none of the filmmakers dared to release their films during this period. And now, we will find many of them lined up for release, by competing with each other.  Films like ‘Karaar‘, ‘Fugay‘,  ‘Baghtos Kaay Mujara Kar’ and many more are in the queue.

Isn’t  that strange ? The two films opening the account for 2017 on 6^th January are, ‘Jhala Bobhata’ directed by Anup Jagadale and ‘Tee Sadhya Kaay Karte’ directed by Satish Rajwade. So, it remains to be seen, which film would score maximum.

Actor Subodh Bhave with his son Malhar Bhave

There are many actors, whose sons are carrying forward their father’s profession in this film industry. Best examples are Chandrakant Gokhale – Vikram Gokhale , Mahesh Kothare- Adinath Kothare, Ravindra Mahajani- Gashmir Mahajani, late Laxmikant Berde- Abhinay Berde and so on. But, we had not heard of an actor’s real life son playing his childhood role in the same film. This new record will be set by Subodh Bhave’s son Malhar Bhave through the film ‘Fugay‘, which is due for release soon.

Little Malhar Bhave plays the childhood role of his father in the film ‘Fugay‘, which stars Subodh Bhave and Swwapnil Joshi in the lead. Incidentally, Swwapnil Joshi’s childhood role is played by the film’s co producer’s son Vihaan Nishandar. Since this film is based on close friendship between the lead characters, their childhood roles will also have equal importance in the film. For little Malhar Bhave, this is a golden opportunity to invite the attention of audience, as acting is in his blood.

Rating: ★★★½ Genres: Comedy Drama Censor: U Duration: 120 min. Studio/presenter: Kings Creation, Digitechno Enterprise Producer(s): Sainath Rajadhyaksha, Mahendranath Director: Anup Jagdale Music: A. V. Prafullachandra Writer: Anup Jagdale Cinematographer (DOP): Krishna Soren Cast: Dilip Prabhavalkar, Sanjay Khapre, Kamlesh Sawant, Bhau Kadam, Mayuresh Pem, Reena Agrawal, Teja Devkar, Monalisa Bagal Movie Review by: Ulhas Shirke

Over the years, Marathi films have always preferred village backdrop, whenever it was time to offer a situation based comedy. And, if the screenplay and dialogues were well suited to versatile artistes, who knew their timings well, such films were well appreciated by the audience. Latest released Marathi film ‘Zhalla Bobhata‘ directed by Anup Ashokrao Jagadale falls in this category. He has offered this film, story of which is written by him, keeping in mind two important words- ‘just entertainment‘.

Set on the backdrop of a beautiful picturesque village in Patan, in Satara District, the film begins with the love affair of two youngsters Pashya ( Mayuresh Pem ) and Priya ( Monalisa Bagal), but brings a sudden twist in the screenplay, with the happening of an event, when the old barber Appa ( Dilip Prabhavalkar) from the village hears the conversation between a man and a woman during night hour and suspects it to be an affair of a married woman from the village with another man. Appa turns unconscious and utters gives a clue about the affair, when he becomes conscious only for few seconds. This worries all the men in the village, including the Village Sarpanch ( Kamalesh Sawant ) and others. The chain of misunderstandings spreads from one family to other. Dinu ( Bhau Kadam ) a bachelor from the village, whose marriage is overdue, also has his say in the sequence of fun filled events.

Marathi film ‘Zhalla Bobhata’

The first half of this film is longer, but entertains the audience , with wonderful performances coming from all the artistes. Dilip Prabhavalkar , Bhau Kadam, Sanjay Khapre and Kamalesh Sawant offer wholesome entertainment through their respective characters. Young Mayuresh Pem does well through his notable performance. As his co star young Monalisa also invites attention through her debut. Another female actress Deepali Ambikar , who has played the role of Sarpanch’s wife, has also done well. Teja Devkar is seen in a different type of role, which suits her the most. But, the credit goes to the director, for generating the laughter moments throughout the film. He however fails to appeal in the concluding part, when he uncovers the mystery about the woman in question.

Nevertheless, the film ‘Zhalla Bobhata‘ entertains the masses, which is the plus point of this film. Arwind Jagtap’s dialogues are well written. A.V.Prafulchandra’s background music also appeals, besides excellent cinematography by Krushna Soren. ‘Zhalla Bobhata‘ is an entertaining film which tickles your funny bone .
