Vaidehi Parshurami is a talented Marathi actress who made her debut through Mahesh Kothare;s film ‘Ved Lagi Jeeva (वेड  लागी जीवा)’ 13 years ago. But, thereafter she did not receive much attention from Marathi film makers for the reasons best known to them. In the meanwhile Vaidehi, who is well educated, paid more attention on her other skills like Classical dance, to present herself a complete actress.

Vaidehi did receive some good offers from Marathi films like ‘Kokanastha’, ‘Vrundavan’,  ‘Zombivali’ and Rohit Shetty’s ‘Simba‘ in Hindi, where she played an important character of Aakruti Dave. And now,  Rohit Shetty has offered her the best suited role of Nafeesa in his debut Web series ‘Indian Police Force’. In this series Rohit has exploited her full potential as an actress. In this 7 episode series which was released this Friday on Prime Video, Vaidehi plays the wife of Zarar alias Haider a terrorist played by Mayaank Taandon.

Vaidehi has played this most difficult role with complete understanding at different stages, paying more attention on her emotions throughout this series in all the seven episodes. Her innocent character of Nafeesa is not aware of the real activities of the person she loves and whom she finally marries. But, when she comes to know his real face, she has plenty of scope to display her acting skills and she has done it with with full confidence.

It will not be surprising to see her flooded with more offers from Hindi, as she deserves it the most.  Rohit Shetty should be thanked for offering this talented Marathi actress the most important character in this web series, which is Rohit Shetty’s debut as a Creator and director on OTT platform.

MarathiMovieWorld spoke to Vaidehi to congratulate her on her wonderful performance in this series and she was more than happy to express her gratitude, being the most modest actress in this industry. When asked whether she was the first choice for this role, she politely said, ‘Could be’. Vaidehi’s next film Varun Narvekar’s ‘1234’ in Marathi is due for release.

Incidentally Vaidehi is not the only Marathi actress, who has been offered an important role in this series. The list is big, which includes another talented actress – Mrinal Kulkarni, who plays the mother of lead actor Siddharth Malhotra. Suchitra Bandekar, who plays Farida- the mother of Vaidehi and Sharvari Lohakare who plays the mother of terrorist who disowns her son, after coming to know about her son’s involvement in terrorist activities. Sharad Kelkar has also found an important role in this series, but he arrives in the concluding part. In short, Rohit Shetty has opened the doors for talented Marathi artistes on Hindi OTT platform.

Marathi film makers are applying new techniques through their films, to make them more presentable. Latest released Marathi film ‘1234’ falls in this category. Directed by Milind Arun Kavde, this film is a action filled thriller, which presents happening of four different events around the same time, on a particular day and the connection of different characters with each other.

The film begins with a song picturised on Rahul ( Bhushan Pradhan) and his girl friend Priya ( Priya Marathe), to indicate their love affair, little before Rahul sets his journey , to report as a Junior Doctor at a Mental Hospital. Then, we notice how he is trapped after reporting there, in the company of starangers. The worried brother of Rahul ( Pradeep Patwardhan) and his sister in law ( Vishakha Subhedar) go to the police station to lodge a complaint about kidnapping of Rahul and demand of a huge sum for his release. It is almost the same time, we notice a helpless Dhanajyay( Sanjay Narvekar) pleading before the Hospital Dean( Yatin Karyekar) to save his father’s life, who is to be operated. In another incident, Super star Abhijit is worried about his wife and little child, as he receives a threat from Underworld and at the same time, there is trouble faced by film maker ( Sanjay Mone) as his production controller Aziz bhai is in love with the film’s actress ( Teja Deokar), who is actually in relationship with another person.

Very skilfully through the film’s screenplay, the director has managed to present the events, turn by turn; but in the process, a person who comes to watch the film, with the sole intention of entertainment, is likely to get confused, if he is not alert throughout the film. But, for action film lovers, ‘1234‘ is a treat to watch. The film does pass a social message, about the exploitation of the people by the administration, in the name of development. It does throw light on compensation, which has not been paid to the displaced people and firing by Police, on the mob demanding their right. Towards the end of the film, we find social activist Anna Hazare making a statement on injustice to the people displaced, in the name of development. In the end, the film maker also gives a hint that there will be a sequel of this film.

There are many twists in the screenplay, which surprise the audience. But, it would not be proper to disclose the same. This experiment has been tried in one of the Bollywood films few years ago. Camera work is superb. Not much scope for music, except for the first song on Bhushan and Priya. But, back ground music is appealing. Camera work is superb. To enjoy this film, the viewer has to follow the sequences with full attention on every happenning. The lead pair Bhushan & Priya don’t find much scope in this film, as there are about 26 important characters, who also find limited roles to their share. But, some of the artistes have tried their best to entertain the audience. New camera technique has been tried for the first time in Marathi, for which the efforts of the film maker are to be appreciated. The film has about 26 important characters, who are part of four different events. Barring few errors, ‘1234‘ is certainly a worth watch film, for those who love action filled thrillers.

Marathi Movie World spoke to Milind Kavde, recently, when he spoke, about his film, which is for the first time shot in India, with Erich Tilt camera using shift lens. Tilt–shift “encompasses two different types of movements: rotation of the lens plane relative to the image plane, called tilt, and movement of the lens parallel to the image plane, called shift. Tilt–shift” encompasses two different types of movements, i.e. rotation of the lens plane relative to the image plane, called tilt, and movement of the lens parallel to the image plane, called shift.

In short, it was very difficult to shoot the entire film with this process, but Milind could do it with the help of his expert cameraman Sentanio Terezio and excellent cooperation received from all artistes. “Through ‘1234‘ I am offering humor, through this action packed thriller and I am sure, our Marathi audience would appreciate this new experiment. It was difficult to shoot in Hyderabad in 45 degree temperature, which sometimes touched 48 degrees; but with 26 recognised artistes together, I could finish the shoot in 26 days, including one song picturisation,” said Milind, while speaking about his film.

As a film maker, Milind has always experimented new things through all his 4 films in the past, attempting new subjects. Now, his film ‘1234‘ which is a multi starrer, is all set to release on coming Friday , i.e.5^th August 2016.
