Popular Marathi Actress Mrunmayee Pratibha Deshpande who has turned writer- director through latest released Marathi film ‘Mann Fakiraa’ clearly displays her creativity as a director through this film by handling the most important subject of “marriage” in her own style. As a teenager Mrunmayee has had a good experience of writing and directing experimental plays at competitive level, but directing a film was a big challenge before her and she has passed this test.

The film revolves around a newly married couple Riya ( Sayali Sanjeev) and Bhushan (Suvrat Joshi) who come together through arranged marriage. Both of them have had relationship with their respective partners, but failed to convert that relationship into marriage. While Bhushan was in relationship with Mahi( Anjali Patil) during his trip to London , Riya was in love with Nachiket( Ankit Mohan) .

On the first night of their marriage, during their first sexual intercourse, in excitement Bhushan utters the name of Mahi. And this is enough for Riya to walk out of his house next morning. Four days later she insists on meeting Bhushan , when she asks for explanation about Bhushan’s relationship with Mahi. At the same time she demands divorce. She however tells Bhushan that even though she had relationship with her friend Nachiket, she has totally forgotten him as there was no contact with him after he left for London. After verbal fights, both decide to make their families happy for the time being , by announcing that they were proceeding for honeymoon to London. Actually, both decide to meet their respective lovers who coincidentally live in London.

After landing in London their new journey begins in different directions. What they experience and how it benefits both of them, is what writer- director Mrunmayee Deshpande has cleverly presented through this film through her own perspective. In an interesting screenplay she has found good help from DOP Abhijit Abde, who has coordinated very well using variety of shots to make this subject more appealing. Many scenes of this film have been shot at beautiful locations of London, which also gives a different look to this film.

The best part of this film are the performances of the four lead artistes, namely Suvrat Joshi, Sayali Sanjeev, Anjali Patil and Ankit Mohan. More impressive among them is Anjali Patil, who steals the show in every scene she is part of and she sports different hairstyles, well suited to a typical NRI and independent type of happy go lucky girl. The actress has already made her impression in Bollywood and it will not be surprising if she invites all the attention at international level with her dusky complexion and expressive eyes. Perfect costumes designed by Sachin Lovlekar ,suitable music by Soumil and Siddharth , ideal sound design by Ganesh Phuke, good editing by Pravin Jahagirdar and Gayatri Shinde’s art help to make this film more presentable. Certainly a worth watch film for all sensible film lovers.

They just don’t need a kind of life partner to perform the role of a typical husband or a wife but want them to be good friends.”

Produced by Smita Vijay Ganu, Nitin Prakash Vaidya and co produced by Trupti Kulkarni this film is presented by Frames Productions and Smita Film Productions.
