Real life couple celebrate ‘Padwa’ on small screen
There are many occasions, where the real life couple are required to perform traditional ceremonies on screen, as the script of the serial or film demands it. In the past, real life couples like Ramesh Deo- Seema, Umesh Kamat & Priya Bapat, Adinath Kothare and Urmila Kanetkar have played couples on screen and they have done full justice to their respective characters.
But, there is another real life couple in the form of Avinash Narkar and Aishwarya Narkar , who are also performing their husband and wife roles on small screen very convincingly. Both Avinash and Aishwarya are part of the ongoing serial ‘Lek Majhi Ladaki‘ very convincingly. Recently, on the sets of this serial, they also performed Padwa, to celebrate their on screen Diwali and they just looked ‘made for each other‘. Even otherwise, both Avinash and Aishwarya are doing very well, in all the three mediums of Marathi entertainment and have also produced a film. Wishing both of them a very happy Padwa and prosperous Diwali.
‘What About Savarkar’ is a tribute to greatest freedom fighter
Genres: Drama

Duration: 125 Min.

Producer: Atul Parab, Rohit Shetty
Director(s): Rupesh Katare, Nitin Gawde

Ten years ago, Mr. Mani Shankar Aiyar, then Petroleum Minister of India, created a controversy, by ordering removal of plaque at Cellular Jail in Andamans, containing poem penned by Swatantryaveer Vinayak Damodar Savarkar, who spent 11 years in that jail, during India’s freedom struggle. The order of the Minister drew sharp criticism from BJP and Shiv Sena in Maharashtra, who protested strongly, seeking apology from the Minister. In short, it was made a political issue and there was not much public outrage noticed, on the statement made by the Minister.
But, 10 years later, we find the same issue being raised in latest Marathi film ‘What About Savarkar’ produced by Atul Parab & Rohiit Shetty and directed by Rupesh Katare and Nitin Gawde. Though all films are generally work of fiction, ‘What about Savarkar’ makes you think, as to what would happen today , if a politician makes such a remark against the late freedom Fighter? Thanks to the Social media. It is so active today, that any such remarks made by our politicians, receives spontaneous reaction from the young generation.
The film presents the same topic of a Petroleum Minister (name changed to Ayangar) who makes a remark to insult the late freedom fighter Veer Savarkar. One Abhiman Marathe ( Shrikant Bhide) working in a multinational company spontaneously reacts, by lodging his strong protest against the Minister’s remarks. He writes in his blog on social net working site, stating that he would teach a lesson to the Minister, during his proposed visit to Mumbai, by welcoming him with a garland of foot wears. Watching huge response to his page, with 28,000 likes within a day; the Government decides to arrest him, for this act, which they call anti national act. Abhiman goes underground, to accomplish his mission.
In his mission, Abhiman gets support from his office colleague Suniti Singh (Sara Shravan), Suryakant Pawar( Atul Todankar) , an educated brother of a peon from his office, Kranti kamble( Avinash Narkar) a self styled revolutionary from Alibaug and his own grandfather Namdev Marathe (Sharad Ponkshe). The Police hunt him, as Abhiman keeps changing his hideouts from Mumbai to Alibaug, then from Alibaug to Manipur at Suniti’s native town and from there to Amritsar to a well wisher (Gajendra Singh Chouhan) .His final destination then turns Delhi, as the Minister cancels his Mumbai trip and is all set to give his speech during a book release function. The climax has been shot very cleverly, to show the final public reaction, on this issue; that too in Delhi.
Very cleverly the director has presented this limited story, through an interesting screenplay; taking the audience on a trip to various places. In the process ,he shows the beauty of these places, especially Alibaug, Manipur and Amritsar. Even the locations in Mumbai have been different, covering the heritage buildings and landmarks of South Mumbai at Fort & Ballard Pier. For that one must thank cinematographer A.K. Sebestian for his excellent camera work. But, the timing of the film, seems to be wrong, as we see BJP ruled Governments at Centre and in the State. Moreover, today we find freedom of speech exercised on social networking sites, to lodge protest against anyone . Perhaps, the work on this film, might have started two years ago.
But, the film has succeeded in passing the five elements of Savarkar’s philosophy cleverly, through the screenplay. In fact, this film is a tribute to the greatest freedom fighter of India, who served maximum sentence in cellular jail, during India’s freedom movement. There are many facts in history brought to light, through this film. Not many were aware that Hridaynath Mangeshkar lost his job in Aakashvani, because he composed the lyrics of Savarkar.
Actually, the film has tried to show, how the politicians opposed to Savarkar’s style of functioning, by trying to suppress him. Most of the characters in this film, are shown, inspired by his ideology. Good performances by debutant Shrikant Bhide, Atul Todankar, Avinash Narkar , Sharad Ponkshe ,Sara Shravan and others make this film more appealing. It was nice to see Sharad Ponkshe playing the role of grandfather with a young heart, who is also shown tech savvy. Savarkar’s poem Swatantra-te-Bhagavati’ has been used well in the title track of the film. Background music is also impressive. A must see film for all those who believe in Savarkar’s ideology about ‘Akhand Bharat’ .
Shrikant Bhide makes his debut through ‘What About Savarkar’
Marathi stage has offered many talented artistes to Film industry. Now, Shrikant Bhide, who has been working on stage for past several years and who is a good dancer gets a lifetime role, to play the central character of Abhiman Marathe in forthcoming Marathi film ‘What About Savarkar’. The film is all set to release on 17th April 2015.
The character played by Shrikant is inspired by the ideology of great freedom fighter of India, Veer Savarkar. Shrikant, who has also appeared in many short films, gets enough scope to display his potential, through this role of a protagonist , who fights against injustice. In fact, this film represents today’s generation . Directed by Nitin Gawde, the film stars Shrikant Bhide, along with Sharad Ponkshe, Vivek Lagu, Avinash Narkar, Atul Todankar & Sara Shravan.
Sara Shrawan plays a Manipuri girl in ‘What About Savarkar’
Any talented actor looks forward to play a challenging role, which will help him or her establish her own identity. Sara Shrawan’s wish of playing one such role, has been fulfilled through the film ‘What About Savarkar’. In this film, Sara plays a Manipuri girl.
‘What About Savarkar’ produced by Rohit Shetty and Atul Parab, is inspired by the ideology of great freedom fighter Vinayak Damodar Savarkar. It may be recalled that Savarkar’s ideology had not only inspired people from Maharashtra, but many youngsters from different parts of India were impressed by his fight for country’s freedom.
Sara plays the character of Sunidhi Singh, who is stimulated by the thoughts of Savarkar. In the film, she joins the movement of the hero , for a cause. The film is all set to release on 17th April and stars Sharad Ponkshe, Vivek Lagu, Avinash Narkar, Atul Todankar, Shrikant Bhide , besides Sara Shravan.
‘Coffee Aani Barach Kahi’ offers refreshing flavor
Genres: Romantic
Censor: U
Duration: 120 Min.
Studio/presenter: Everest Entertainment, Ravi Jadhav Films, A White Swan Production
Producer: Prakash Kunte, A Motionspace entertainment
Director: Prakash Kunte
Writer: Aditi Moghe
Dialogues: Aditya Bedekar
Cast: Vaibhav Tatwawadi, Prarthana Behere, Bhooshan Pradhan, Neha Mahajan, Suyash Tilak, Dilip Prabhawalkar, Vidhyadhar Joshi, Ashiwni Ekbote, Sandesh Kulkarni, Suhas Joshi, Ila Bhate
True love never needs the expression of words. But, in certain cases, ‘love‘ does not materialize into ‘marriage’, unless it is expressed both ways. Prakash Kunte’s latest Marathi film ‘Coffee Aani Barach Kahi‘ presented by Everest Entertainment and Ravi Jadhav , has one such refreshing love story to offer, with a different flavor blended with love. Set on the backdrop of Pune city, the hub of IT industry, the film’s love story revolves around beautiful Jaai (Prarthana Behere) and smart and handsome Nishad (Vaibhav Tatwawadi) working in the same office.
Actually, Nishad in the team leader of his department and Jaai, who is a new recruit, joins his team. Soon, they start liking each other. But, both of them are unable to express their love to each other. While Jaai has understanding parents (Vidyadhar Joshi & Ashwini Ekbote) and a naughty but smart thinking younger sister Aabha ( Neha Mahajan), Vaibhav lives with his father ( Avinash Narkar) who is lonely, but always supportive.
Time comes, when Jaai’s parents think seriously about her marriage. They ask Jaai, whether she is already in relationship with anyone. Confused about her love, Jaai denies any such relationship; which encourages her father to invite his old family friend to their house along with their only son Anish ( Bhooshan Pradhan) . He suggests Jaai to check whether Anish would be a suitable match for her. Jaai, who doesn’t believe in arranged marriage , does confess to Anish, about her ideas of love and marriage. While she narrates all the recent happenings to Anish, the director goes on to show all her interactions with Nishad, Aabha and her parents.
At the same time, the director shows Nishad’s interactions with his close friend (Suyash Tilak), Abhyankar , the Coffee shop owner( Sandesh Kulkarni) and his dear father. He also shows, how Nishad tactfully avoids a girl suggested by his friend’s mother. Later, he shows the same girl, meeting Nishad in coffee shop with her ‘would be’ found through arranged marriage. In one more scene, he shows an old couple celebrating their Golden Jubilee marriage anniversary, in the same coffee shop, where Nishad is a silent observer.
Though some of the sequences are bit confusing; the creativity of the director is to be highly appreciated, while presenting this delightful love story. Generally, all love stories, need good music. But, in this film, the director has paid more attention on beautiful background music, to create an ambiance, required for this story . Coffee shops being the favourite spots of the young generation, the director has selected one such garden coffee house, to add that special flavor to this well presented love story. The costumes of Prarthana and Neha are just apt, to indicate their family’s higher middle class status.
‘Coffee Aani Barach Kahi’ scores on account of its neat and clean appearance, with natural brilliant performances by four youngsters namely Vaibhav Tatwawadi, Prarthana Behere, Bhooshan Pradhan and Neha Mahajan. They have received good support from character artistes Suyash Tilak, Anita Date, Anuja Sathe, Vidyadhar Joshi, Ashwini Ekbote, Ila Bhate, Avinash Narkar, Sandesh Kulkarni, Dilip Prabhavalkar and Suhas Joshi. Well suited dialogues help add that special flavor to this coffee, which is simply fabulous. Good photography by Arjun Sorte is another plus point of the film.
Most of the youngsters will correlate themselves with different characters in this film. Those understanding and liberal Parents would also connect well with the characters played by Vidyadhar Joshi, Ashwini Ekbote , Avinash Narkar and Ila Bhate. In short, this ‘Coffee’ offers a refreshing flavor, which will surely be appreciated by all Marathi film lovers.
