Man by nature is sensible. But, his  life is variable.  Therefore, he is required to live his life with  irrational certainty . He never knows, whatever is happening around with others, could happen with  him too . We have been hearing about the cases of accidents and  crimes happening in the neighbourhood. But, what if, the same case happens in your house with the person hired by you ?  Produced by  Rohit Jail & Prashant Umbarani and directed by Shankh  Rajadhyaksha, new Marathi film ‘702 Dixits’ presents one such story, based on a real incidence, which took place in Pune, few years ago. Though,  this film is not a ditto version of this real story, they have developed it, so as take the cinematic liberties.

In  the beginning of the film, we notice an unfortunate death of a house maid, working in the house of Dixits,  living on the 7^th floor of a housing society in Pune.  Actually, this maid has fallen from the 7^th floor of the balcony and dies on the spot. Not suspecting an accidental death, the witty Police officer (Jaywant Wadkar) , who comes to investigate the case, with a packet of biscuits in his hand, takes along with him Mr. Yash Dixit (Vijay Andalkar)for investigation, suspecting him as a murderer and keeps him in the police lock up. When Yash’s wife Kavya (Gauri Nigudkar) rushes home from office, she doesn’t know, how to react to this situation. So she seeks help from  Yash’s friend Riya Pandit( Pallavi Patil) and both together try their level best to get bail for Yash. As there is no lawyer coming forward to take this case, Riya herself, being a lawyer, decides to fight the case.

Riya plays the dual role of defence lawyer and also an investigation officer, as she does not get help from Senior Police officer investigating the case.   And, we notice, unfolding of mystery, after suspecting  even Yash, Riya and few other suspects.

Actually, the plot of this film is good. But, director Shankh Rajadhyaksha could have developed it further, to make it more interesting than what he has presented. There is no doubt that he has used his editing skills, to use some twists in the screenplay with the help of interesting flashbacks; but few of the happenings are not very convincing, like the Police officer asking the same question repeatedly  to Yash, to admit that he has committed a crime and the large number of witnesses produced in the court, to endorse the credibility  of Yash.

Nevertheless , the performances of the main three characters played by Gauri Nigudkar, Pallavi Patil and Vijay Andalkar are very convincing. Especially, Pallavi, who has performed in her second film,  after Classmates, looks very confident. The selection of supporting cast is perfect, as we notice some good looking youngsters, resembling IT people. Vikram Gokhale is just namesake in this film, playing the boss at Yash’s IT company; but Jaywant Wadkar is impressive in the role of senior police officer.

The film scores on account of  excellent  camera work and apt background music , most suited for this  mystery filled suspense thriller. Moreover, the selection of locations has given a realistic look, to this technically well presented film.  Shankh  Rajadhyaksha has made  a good attempt on his debut, as a director;  as,  it is not an easy job  to present a mystery filled film. But, he has managed well, to hold the suspense, till the climax.  Last,  but not the least, the film also delivers an important message,  of verifying  all the  details of house maid,  employed by people in their houses. You never know, what has been shown in the film, could happen with you.

Zee Marathi’s ‘Maharashtrache Superstar’ talent contest held in 2010, offered many talented artistes to Marathi stage, television industry and also Marathi film industry. Though, Dr.Nilesh Sable and Yogini Chouk won the final round, all the 12 contestants shortlisted for the contest were super intelligent and it was a good contest. Vivek Raut, Namrata Awte, Nikhil Raut, Sneha Kulkarni made it to the final round, along with Nilesh and Yogini; but, among those who could not make it was Vijay Andalkar. The tall and smart actor from Pune, is now finding better roles in Marathi films.

Vijay is otherwise an excellent stage actor ; but, last year we saw him along with Abhijit Khandkekar, in an important role of Sangram Shinde in the film ‘Dhol Tashe’. He will also be seen in forthcoming film ‘Mr. & Mrs. Sadachari’ along with Vaibhav Tatwavdi . But, his next film in the lead role ‘702 Dixits’ is due for release on 15th January 2016 and Vijay is looking forward to a good response from the audience to this film, which is a suspense thriller. Recently, when we met him, during the music release of this film, he said, “In Marathi, there are not many suspense thrillers. Therefore, I am glad that director Shankh Rajadhyaksha has given me an opportunity to play lead role in this film.”

In this film, Vijay is casted opposite two talented actresses Gauri Nigudkar and Pallavi Patil. Gauri is playing his wife, while Pallavi is playing his close friend. With ample talent in him, Vijay is all set to invite the attention of film lovers. Will he emerge as one of the most promising actors in Marathi film industry? MMW wishes him all the best.

The post 702 Dixit’s (७०२ दिक्षित) appeared first on .

Eleven years ago, as a teenager, she performed in national award winning Marathi film ‘Uttarayan’. Surprisingly, she played the young Neena Kulkarni’s role in this film; while Sharad Kelkar, who played young  Shivaji Satam in this film, was her hero in few scenes in the flashback of this film. Gauri later completed her masters’ degree in science and got busy with offers from Hindi television. Two years ago, she did a film ‘Sanshaykallol’ opposite today’s leading Marathi hero Ankush Choudhari and had made her intentions clear that she would do Marathi films, provided there was a good role.

In between Gauri got married; but had not said ‘no’ to acting. Last year, when director Shankh Rajadhyaksha had an offer to direct a suspense filled thriller, inspired by a true story, he only thought of Gauri, to play the lead role of Kavya Dixit . And, Gauri immediately said ‘yes’ to this offer, after hearing the story of this film. The film suitably titled ‘702 Dixits’ is now ready for release and Gauri is eagerly waiting for the film’s release, scheduled for 15^th January 2016.

The return of Gauri to Marathi cinema, is at the most appropriate time, when Marathi cinema is going for a  big change, with ‘out of the box’ scripts, attempted by new film makers. The maker of ‘702 Dixits’, Shankh Rajadhyaksha is from editing field and this being his debut film, as a director, he seems to have worked very hard, in presenting this interesting story, so as to keep the audience engaged to their seats for 2 hours. Even Gauri feels that the director has done an excellent job. If this film does good business, it will certainly benefit Gauri to find still better roles in Marathi. She already has a big fan following, as a TV actress on Hindi television.

Sometimes a sensational news happens next door. But, people don’t take such news seriously, unless such news affects their own family. ‘9 Star Entertainment’ through their forthcoming Marathi film ‘702 Dixits’ , have picked one such news story and developed it in a different way, to give a cinematic form, to make it a mystery filled thriller. Not many films are made on such subjects in Marathi and therefore, ‘702 Dixits’ has certainly raised the hopes of the regular Marathi viewers, towards this film. And, the manner in which the film has been presented, was evident from the impressive first look of the film, unveiled on Tuesday evening along with music release of this film.

Films of such type do not have many songs and hence going with the tradition of suspense films, producers Rohit Jail, Prashant Umbrani and director Shankh Rajadhyaksha have kept only three songs in this film, on the music of Shubhankar. But, background music plays important part in this film. According to director Shankh Rajadhyaksha, ( well known editor, having edited Mrunal Kulkarni’s film ‘Prem Mhanje Prem Asata’) he has given more importance to selection of artistes suited to the characters, as he wanted to present a realistic film. So, the film which is a thriller, filled with suspense, will unveil the mystery on 15th January 2016.

The film stars Gauri Nigudkar the Hindi TV actress, along with Pallavi Patil( ‘Classmates’ fame), Vijay Aandalkar( ‘Dhol Tashe’ fame), Shrirang Deshmukh, Ruchi Jail, Jaywant Wadkar & Vikram Gokhale. On this occasion, singer Nimisha Deb rendered few lines of the song from this film.
