  • Movie Review by: Ulhas Shirke

In the past, we have seen many cases of injustice on women fought in the court of law. Through the latest Marathi film ‘Judgement‘ you will see a unique case, where a daughter takes on her own father who brutally murders her beloved mother, only because she is not able to give him a baby boy. Little Rujuta is the only eyewitness to this ghastly murder of her Mother Neha( Shweta Pagar) by her high profile IAS officer father Agnivesh Satam ( Mangesh Desai) from Ratnagiri District.

Appa ( Madhav Abhyankar) who is well aware of the motive of his son in law in murdering his daughter, takes away his two little grand daughters to Mumbai where he lives his retired life. He wants his elder grand daughter Rujuta to keep quiet and not to speak about the truth to anyone and therefore the case of Neha’s death is closed, calling it an accidental death.

15 years later we find the two daughters of Neha grown up as well educated professionals. While elder daughter Rujuta ( Tejashree Pradhan) practices law, the younger Anayata( Shalaka Apte) practices in a counseling centre as an assistant to a psychiatrist. Rujuta, who is not able to forget the brutal murder of her mother, is now all set to take the revenge against her father, by reopening the case. It’s not an easy battle as Agnivesh is a very influential person, having remarried and having a son. But, determined and fearless Rujuta takes up the challenge to prove her father a cold-blooded murderer.

How she fights the battle in court and how she manages the witnesses against him, is presented very effectively by director Sameer Surve through the gripping screenplay of this film. Every artiste in this film has given the best. And that is the plus point of this film. Versatile actor Madhav Abhyankar does very well through his limited role, while Mangesh Desai with his negative character has been impressive. The best comes from Tejashree Pradhan, who has been able to express her emotions very well through her central character. ‘Shree Partner’’fame Shweta Pagar has played the role of Neha with total conviction, while excellent support also comes from Shalaka Apte and Pratik Deshmukh.

Music doesn’t find much scope in this film, but still two songs in the background are well suited to the screenplay. Cinematography and editing work is handled with perfection. There are few lapses in this film, like showing the Appa played by Madhav Abhyankar almost of the same age even after 15 years, while Mangesh Desai is shown much older with his slow walking style in bent position after the same time period. However, barring these few minor lapses, ‘Judgement‘ is Certainly, a worth watch film. The good thing about this film is that it has respected the original story of Neela Satyanarayan by not deviating from the original subject.
