Unlike his previous love stories , this time director Sanjay Jadhav deviates from his entertainment formula, to offer an emotion filled story through his latest released Marathi film ‘Khari Biscuit’. Actually, ‘Khari Biscuit’ is a sensitive emotion filled film on the life of two siblings, who turn orphans, when their mother living in slums dies in an accident. When five year old blind girl Khari (Vedashree Khadilkar) expresses her wish to her caring brother Biscuit(Adarsha Kadam) , he tries to fulfil the same by working hard as a child labourer. But, when she demands something unachievable by her brother, the determined brother goes on to make what is impossible as possible, attempting different ways.
What follows in the process, is what Sanjay Jadhav has presented through an interesting screenplay of this film. He has dedicated this film to all the brothers and sisters in this world and therefore emotions play a very important part in this film. But, what is more important is that he takes the support of the most popular game of cricket. Set on the backdrop of the ICC World Cup One day Cricket matches of 2011, when India won the World cup after 28 long years. Since this was the last World Cup of India’s master blaster Sachin Tendulkar, it turned out to be a biggest gift for him. And therefore, the director has used his popular image cleverly in the film’s story.
Though the main plot of this film is good, few happenings in the film fail to convince . But, the director has extracted the best from the two child artistes Vedashree and Adarsha and both of them have responded very well . Good support also comes from Nandita Dhuri and Sanjay Narvekar through their limited roles. There are many other newcomers in supporting roles and they too have performed convincingly. As far as the locations in and around the city of Mumbai and Thane are concerned, they give a realistic look. Music by Suraj Dhiraj goes well with the film’s subject. All in all, director Sanjay Jadhav sold a dream to many underprivileged children especially the brothers and sisters.
