In ‘Dombivli Fast‘ released in 14 years ago, we saw the story of a middle-class bank employee, Madhav Apte, an ordinary, law-abiding and honest citizen who faces constant frustration with the injustice and corruption that pervades in all walks of his life. Now, Sandeep Kulkarni who was the lead actor of ‘Dombivli Fast‘ makes his comeback after about 5 years through ‘Dombivli Return, in which besides playing the lead role, he has also turned producer. Directed by Mahendra Teredesai this film is also set on the backdrop of Dombivli and the middle-class family. It displays the psychological experience of a middle-class Government servant Anant Velankar( Sandeep Kulkarni), who is honest; but lands into trouble when he discovers a secret of his most respected Boss, who is the minister.

How it affects his personal life, the director has shown it very cleverly; keeping in mind the set rules of middle-class morals. But, what would happen, if someone like Velankar tries to break these rules? Will his conscience permit him to do so? This is what director Mahendra Teredesai has tried to show through five important characters, in this film.

Sandeep Kulkarni in the role of Anant Velankar has given his best through this role. Being one of the producers, he has put in extra efforts in many emotion filled scenes. In the role of his wife, Rajeshwari Sachdev has offered very good support. Watch her in one of the scenes, where she is shown turning hysteric. In the supporting role, Amol Parashar has done a good job, while playing Anant’s younger brother. Hrishikesh Joshi is also one such actor in this film, who has given a wonderful performance, in the role of Anant’s close friend; while little Tanishka Shinde, looks very natural while playing Anant’s daughter.

Music by Shailendra Barve is apt for this kind of film, while Udaysingh Mohite’s photography, has given ‘Dombivli Return film a special look. There is one good message offered by this film, ‘If you want to judge one’s character, bestow him with power.’ All in all, ‘Dombivli Return is a kind of film, that will make you think.

  • Movie Review by: Ulhas Shirke.

You never know what will happen in your life in future. Many a times this change is controlled by some force. And you call it ‘Destiny’. Latest released Marathi film ‘Krutant‘ is based on this philosophy. Samyak ( Suyog Gorhe) and Reva( Sayli Patil) are happily married couple who live in Mumbai . Samyak who is workaholic does not find enough time for his wife, mother and little child. But, his lenient wife tries to adjust herself with his busy lifestyle.

One day his old college friends, who are also family friends request Samyak to join for a picnic at one of his friend’s native place, which is 6 hours away from Mumbai. After persuasion Samyak agrees to join them for two days, with a condition that he would join them directly at the picnic destination. Reva suggests Samyak to travel by Tourist bus instead of driving himself all the way. Samyak reaches the place, but finds none of his friends to pick him up. On calling them, he is suggested to hire a tumtum( tempo type rickshaw) , which drops him at a spot from where he has to walk down to the village. Soon, it gets dark and it starts raining. There is no sign of his friends. Helpless, he takes shelter in a shanty owned by a stranger ( Sandeep Kulkarni) who tells him that he attends to puncture work of tyres. Initially, reluctant to communicate with him, thinking that he is a beggar, Samyak soon realises that this stranger has a lot of knowledge and talks sense on the topics like loneliness, change and destiny in a philosophical manner. He then patiently listens to his past, when the stranger narrates his story.

It is this interesting story that brings a twist in the film’s screenplay and the audience too get engrossed into it. Writer- Director Datta Bhandare has very cleverly developed this plot, with the help of excellent cinematography by Vijay Mishra, good background music by Vijay Gavande and superb sound design. Performances of lead artistes are good , especially from Sandeep Kulkarni who makes his comeback through this film and dashing Suyog Gorhe. Charming Sayli Patil has very little to do in this film, but she has played her part well. Good support comes from other character artistes. However few doubts remain unanswered in the screenplay. But, the attempt to handle such a mystery based story is good. All in all, ‘Krutant‘ film takes you on a different journey.
