Nipun and Amey narrate their experience about home quarantine
The tour of ‘Amar Photo Studio’ was cut short and they had to return from USA last week. For Nipun Dharmadhikari, it happened to be a family get together at his brother’s place in Atlanta, where his parents were visiting. During this crucial time they had to take all necessary precautions, before they luckily got their tickets for their return trip to India.
On his return to India, Nipun has proudly praised the authorities handling the situation at the airport. ” They were checking every passenger. There was a line stretching for nearly half a kilometer. The documentation was good. The doctors were working very seriously and with complete dedication. We were stamped and are under home quarantine till the 4th of April. After the stamp they gave us a poster with do’s and don’ts while being quarantined at home. At the immigration they noted our address and again we were divided in groups of 8-10 people. An officer was assigned to each group who waited till everyone collected their bags and led us outside customs till we reached the prepaid taxi stands. Then again, they documented our basic info and left.”
Nipun further adds, “On reaching home, the next day we received a call from Shivajinagar Police station where they confirmed our details. Very politely, they asked us not to step outside the house, which we agreed to. In the evening, we received a call from Pune Municipal Corporation officers who came home to visit. We asked them if it was safe for them to come home, to which they replied that they are wearing gloves and masks and wont take more than a few minutes after which they will sanitize themselves. They gave us another pamphlet with do’s and don’ts, applied voters ink to our fingers and gave us a number on which we have to call them everyday and report our well-being. They even told us that they will get us any groceries and supplies if needed. The reason for sharing all of this is, that while I am reading many posts about how poorly India is handling this,my first hand experience is different. At least at the administrative level, India is handling it very seriously. Much much better than the USA.”
Nipun has however expressed his anguish after watching the videos of idiots coming out on roads in groups and celebrating at 5 PM on last sunday. “This was meant to be a moment wherein we thank the authorities. Authorities who are really doing their jobs. And these idiots might have just taken us to the next stage of this pandemic. To everyone reading this…. can we please stay at home and help our country and the society as a whole? It’s ok to feel bored.. it’s not the end of the world. But if you get out, it might just be…” he added.
Amey Wagh, who is also under home Quarantine , also shared his experience. “I was remembering my family. But, my courteous neighbour Sonali Kulkarni sent lunch box for me and Sajiri. It was a wonderful gesture from her. And this offered both of us the required positivity at this crucial stage. I appeal to all of you to remain at home during this lockdown period and be positive. ‘Go Corona Go’!”

 Dhurala Movie Poster |

In the past there have been many films on power games played by Politicians when it was for gaining or retaining power. Films like ‘Samana’, ‘Sinhasan’, ‘Sarkarnama’, ‘Zenda’, ‘Aajcha Diwas Majha’ and few others have presented different subjects on the backdrop of this power game in politics. Now, latest released film written by Kshitij Patwardhan and Directed by Sameer Vidwans shows how the power game can split the family of a popular Village Sarpanch Nivrrutti Anna Ubhe, after his sad demise.
Set on the backdrop of a Village-Ambegaon in rural Maharashtra, the film has shown how the selfish people including MLA of the district try to prevent the eldest son Navnath ( Ankush Chaudhari) from contesting the election to carry forward the family tradition. But, he finds the clever game played by MLA( Sabnis) to declare the constituency reserved for women and suggesting the name of his step mother (Alka Kubal) by supporting her for his own political gains. If this is not enough, his otherwise ambitious sister in law Monica (Sonalee) is also convinced to contest by their family’s rival Gadhve( Prasad Oak) . Navnath has no other option but to request his obedient wife Harshada ( Sai Tamhankar) to jump into the fray , making it a triangular contest within the family.
So, the real fight which begins, is witnessed only in the second half of this about 169 minutes long film, when all the interesting happenings take place one after the other. A lot of time has thus been wasted in the first half to show how the outsiders get involved with their dirty political games to split the family. What is remarkable to see, is the strong bonding in spite of the split noticed through some of the emotion filled scenes. There are few twists and turns in the film, including the climax, but what appeals the most are the dialogues exchanged between them by the important characters at different situations.
Veteran actress Alka Kubal is at her best . Ankush Choudhari displays his commitment to social work through his powerful character. Sai Tamhankar does very well , especially when she presents ‘Bharud’ during her election campaign. Sonalee has played the ambitious woman taking it as a challenge. Siddharth does well in his role of a lazy and happy go lucky husband, while Amey Wagh gets his share to show his skills through his ‘not so easy’ character. In the role of family’s opponents Prasad Oak dos well, while Umesh Kamat has very little to his share.
There is no scope for music in this film, but the clever cinematography captures the perfect village atmosphere and close up expressions of every important character very well. Full marks to all the artistes for their wonderful performances and to director Sameer for handling all those important scenes with the help of writer Khsitij . All in all, it is good political based timely film, but should have been shortened lengthwise, especially in the first half.
