‘Zhalla Bobhata’ tickles your funny bone
Rating: ★★★½
Genres: Comedy Drama Censor: U Duration: 120 min. Studio/presenter: Kings Creation, Digitechno Enterprise Producer(s): Sainath Rajadhyaksha, Mahendranath Director: Anup Jagdale Music: A. V. Prafullachandra Writer: Anup Jagdale Cinematographer (DOP): Krishna Soren Cast: Dilip Prabhavalkar, Sanjay Khapre, Kamlesh Sawant, Bhau Kadam, Mayuresh Pem, Reena Agrawal, Teja Devkar, Monalisa Bagal Movie Review by: Ulhas Shirke |
Over the years, Marathi films have always preferred village backdrop, whenever it was time to offer a situation based comedy. And, if the screenplay and dialogues were well suited to versatile artistes, who knew their timings well, such films were well appreciated by the audience. Latest released Marathi film ‘Zhalla Bobhata‘ directed by Anup Ashokrao Jagadale falls in this category. He has offered this film, story of which is written by him, keeping in mind two important words- ‘just entertainment‘.
Set on the backdrop of a beautiful picturesque village in Patan, in Satara District, the film begins with the love affair of two youngsters Pashya ( Mayuresh Pem ) and Priya ( Monalisa Bagal), but brings a sudden twist in the screenplay, with the happening of an event, when an old barber Appa ( Dilip Prabhavalkar) from the village hears the conversation between a man and a woman during night hour and suspects it to be an affair of a married woman from the village with another man. Appa turns unconscious and gives a clue about the affair, when he becomes conscious only for few seconds. This worries all the men in the village, including the Village Sarpanch ( Kamalesh Sawant ) and others. The chain of misunderstandings spreads from one family to other. Dinu ( Bhau Kadam ) a bachelor from the village, whose marriage is overdue, also has his say in the sequence of fun filled events.
The first half of this film is longer, but entertains the audience , with wonderful performances coming from all the artistes. Dilip Prabhavalkar , Bhau Kadam, Sanjay Khapre and Kamalesh Sawant offer wholesome entertainment through their respective characters. Young Mayuresh Pem does well through his notable performance. As his co star young Monalisa also invites attention through her debut. Another female actress Deepali Ambikar , who has played the role of Sarpanch’s wife, has also done well. Teja Devkar is seen in a different type of role, which suits her the most. But, the credit goes to the director, for generating the laughter moments throughout the film. He however fails to appeal in the concluding part, when he uncovers the mystery about the woman in question.
Nevertheless, the film ‘Zhalla Bobhata‘ entertains the masses, which is the plus point of this film. Arwind Jagtap’s dialogues are well written. A.V.Prafulchandra’s background music also appeals, besides excellent cinematography by Krushna Soren. ‘Zhalla Bobhata‘ is an entertaining film which tickles your funny bone .

‘Family Katta’ – An emotion filled family drama
Rating: ★★★½
Genres: Drama, Humour, Family Censor: U Duration: 130 min. Studio/presenter: Sister Concern Entertainment Producer(s): Vandana Gupte Director: Chandrakant Kulkarni Music: Mangesh Dhakde Writer: Prashant Dalvi Cinematographer (DOP): Mahesh Limaye Cast: Vandana Gupte, Sai Tamhankar, Dilip Prabhavalkar, Kiran Karmarkar, Prateeksha Lonkar, Gauri Nalawade, Alok Rajwade. Movie Review by: Ulhas Shirke |
Very often we have seen Marathi film makers influenced by the scripts of popular Marathi dramas. Latest released Marathi film ‘Family Katta‘ is no exception. The film is based on Prashant Dalvi written and Chandrakant Kulkarni directed Marathi play ‘Celebration‘ .With no changes in the script and retaining the same director, Vandana Gupte and her sister Rani Verma under the banner of their ‘Sister Concern Productions‘ have made this multi starrer film, which is an emotion filled family drama.
The film begins with an old couple Mr. & Ms. Sabnis (Dilip Prabhavalkar & Vandana Gupte) based in Pune, busy with preparations to celebrate their 50th Wedding anniversary .This time, the third generation of Sabnis family comprising of Grand daughter ( Gauri Nalavade) a TV actress and her foreign based cousin ( Alok Rajwade) more keen on meeting their grandparents and celebrate the occasion. But for the two sons of Sabnis couple (Kiran Karmarkar & Sachin Deshpande) and their daughters in law ( Prateeksha Lonkar & Sulekha Talwalkar) it is just an occasion for a family get together. The third son of Sanis couple ( Sanjay Khapre) who is into social work and living in a village, is also on his way, to attend this function. The only daughter of Sabnis family ( Sai Tamhankar) , who marries against her father’s wish, an elderly person , after her divorce, is also on her way with her husband ( Adesh Shrivastav) to meet her parents after six years.
The film’s screenplay goes on well in the first half, with light humor arising out of the old couple’s arguments over small issues in their day to day life. But, little before the arrival of the family members, we notice a sudden twist in the screenplay. Thereafter, the film moves on with emotion filled happenings that follow in the second half, keeping the audience guessing, as to what would happen next. The film concludes well, with a timely social message.
‘Family Katta‘ is a well presented film, with wonderful performances coming from the entire team comprising of Dilip Prabhavalkar, Vandana Gupte, Kiran Karmarkar, Prateeksha Lonkar, Sachin Deshpande, Sulekha Talwalkar, Sanjay Khapre, Gauri Nalawade, Alok Rajwade, Sai Tamhankar & Adesh Shrivastav. They have shown perfect understanding and proper team work in every scene in this film. The jealousy between the two daughters in law, is cleverly shown through few humor filled scenes, while their young children are shown with a liberal attitude. Music isn’t much important in this film, except for background music. Good editing work by Jayant Jathar and finest cinematography by Mahesh Limaye, makes this film more appealing. Dialogues by Prashant Dalvi are also well written. But, the director hasn’t taken much cinematic liberties to present this original drama, perhaps cutting on the budget. But, his direction is good.
‘Family Katta‘ is the film for entire family and hence likely to be appreciated by all.
Dilip Prabhavalkar all praise for Vandana Gupte
Vandana Gupte’s own production ‘Family Katta‘ directed by Chandrakant Kulkarni is all set to release on 7th October 2016. The entire cast of ‘Family Katta‘ was introduced to media on Monday evening, by the makers of this film. So, lead artistes Dilip Prabhavalkar, Vandana Gupte, Sai Tamhankar, Sachin Deshpande, Kiran Karmarkar, Gauri Nalawade, Prateeksha Lonkar, Alok Rajwade were all there to interact with the media persons. Vandana Gupte’s sisters Bharati Achrekar and Rani Verma were also present on this occasion.
Dilip Prabhavalkar in particular, was all praise for Vandana Gupte, for managing the team well during the entire shooting schedule of the film. ” Besides producing this film, she is playing the most important role of my wife in this film. It is the most difficult and different role. But, she has played it confidently,” he said.
Vandana Gupte too praised all the artistes and said that each artiste perfectly suited in the characters played by them. I am sure, Marathi film lovers would appreciate this film, which is a story of Sabnis family coming together after a long time, to celebrate the Golden Jubilee Wedding anniversary of the head of the family, played by Dilip Prabhavalkar and his wife played by Vandana Gupte.
