We are all aware of that Lord Ganesha is known as ‘God of Knowledge’ and there is a lot of curiosity among the people to know more about the knowledge and different art forms of this Lord. Based on this theme, Writer- director Yogesh Deshpande launched the poster of his forthcoming Marathi film ‘66 Sadashiv‘ on social media. And this poster has raised a lot of curiosity among the film lovers as it shows a particular book in the hands of actor Mohan Joshi, the title of which reads, ‘How to master the technique of the new art form’.

So, one thing is clear that veteran actor Mohan Joshi will lead the team of artistes in ‘66 Sadashiv‘ film. But, the names of other artistes are yet to be announced. According to the makers the film will present the typical attitude of Punekars through this film. ‘66 Sadashiv‘ will be the first production of Pune Talkies Pvt. Ltd. by producers Hemant Gujarathi, Vinay Vakalkar & Saurabh Chinchankar and music of this film is composed by Narendra Bhide. The film will be released soon all over Maharashtra.
Over the years, we have seen many film makers trying different ideas to entertain the audience with a message. If the film maker is able to keep the audience engaged into his presentation, the film attains success. Latest released Marathi film ‘Wedding Cha Shinema’ presented by Everest Entertainment and directed by debutant writer-director Dr. Saleel Kulkarni has met with all these requirements to offer quality entertainment.

The film‘s subject deals with the new trend of offering a contract to event management company for making a film on the pre-wedding rituals, which also include shooting of romantic scenes of couple and interviews of all those near and dear ones to the couple. Obviously, the Sangeet ceremony is also a part of such a film. We have had the glimpses of it in the past movies like ‘Hum Aapke Hain Koun‘ in Hindi and ‘Mumbai Pune Mumbai-2‘ in Marathi. However, ‘Wedding Cha Shinema‘ presents the coming together of two well to do families from two different regions of Maharashtra with diverse lifestyles.

While the bride Pari (Rucha Inamdar) and her parents( Sunil Barve & Ashwini Kalsekar) belong to Mumbai and are high profile medical practitioners, bridegroom Prakash ( Shivraj Waichal) and his parents( Shivaji Satam & Alka Kubal) belong to rich farmer’s family owning acres of farmlands and a huge Mobile shop in Saswad in Pune district, known for large fruit plantations. Prakash and Pari first meet at Prakash’s mobile shop when Pari after passing her MBBS is posted as an intern in a hospital in Saswad. With subsequent meetings, love happens between them and it is Pari who takes the lead to propose Prakash after noticing his shyness to express his love.

When the families of both agree for their marriage, incomes Urvi( Mukta Barve) the creative director along with her two assistants a DOP (Bhau Kadam) and a choreographer (Tyagraj Khadilkar) to shoot the wedding film on behalf of the event manager Raja (Sunil Abhyankar). During the course of this shooting schedule at Saswad and Mumbai and during their journey Urvi captures some misunderstandings between the couple and she becomes very close to the bride Pari while capturing her emotions.
The entire film’s screenplay has turned entertaining with humour filled scenes and well-written dialogues. Besides the lead couple and above mentioned characters, there are others like Prakash’s elder brother ( Sankarshan Karhade) and his sister in law ( Yogini Pophale), sister ( Prajakta Hanamghar) brother in law from Baramati ( Pranit Kulkarni) and last but not the least his close friend Mac( Pravin Vitthal Tarde) who have filled in energy with their good performances into this film’s entertaining screenplay. Rucha Inamdar has succeeded in portraying the character of Pari with bubbling enthusiasm. In fact, she has perfectly fitted into that role.
The music director turned writer-director Dr. Saleel Kulkarni makes his presence felt through every important scene in this film, especially while showing the confusion and chaos sprinkled with emotional highs and lows in the minds of the couple, amidst preparations for the wedding. Very cleverly he has shown the contrast between the busy Mumbai lifestyle with less communication and the happy and friendly lifestyle of Saswad people. Technically it is a well-presented film with good music, with two nicely picturised songs. All in all ‘Wedding Cha Shinema‘ is certainly a good entertaining film for all.
सुंदर अभिनेत्री पल्लवी पाटील हिने ‘क्लासमेटस्‘, ‘शेंटीमेंटल‘, ‘सविता दामोदर परांजपे‘, ‘बॉइज-2‘, ‘तू तिथे असावे‘ अशा मराठी चित्रपटांमधून अभिनय साकारला आहे. अभिनेत्री पल्लवी पाटीलने नुकतेच एक ग्लॅमरस फोटोशूट केले आहे. ह्या फोटोशूटमधून तिचा इंडो-वेस्टर्न लूक तिच्या चाहत्यांसमोर रिविल झाला आहे. ह्या फोटोशूटचे वैशिष्ठ्य म्हणजे, ह्यात घातलेले सर्व कॉस्च्युम्स हे तिने स्वत: डिझाइन केलेले आहेत. आणि ते तिच्या आईच्या साड्यांचे बनलेले आहेत.

पल्लवी पाटील हिने फॅशन डिझाइनिंगचे कोणतेही तंत्रशुध्द प्रशिक्षण घेतलेले नाही. ती पूढे म्हणते, “अवॉर्ड फंक्शन्सच्या रेड कार्पेटवरही मला आता साड्यांचे डिझाइनर ड्रेस घातल्यावर चाहत्यांकडून आणि विशेष म्हणजे फिल्म इंडस्ट्रीतल्या डिझाइनर्सकडून माझ्या ह्या कलेसाठी कॉम्प्लिमेन्ट मिळायला लागल्या आहेत, त्यामूळे तर आता साड्यांचे ड्रेस बनवायची कला जोपासायचा अजून हुरूप आला आहे.”

The year 2019 doesn’t seem to be that good for Marathi films. During the first quarter, very few Marathi films saw audience response in theatres. And ‘Anandi Gopal‘ was one of them. But, after that during the past one month, there has been very low turn out in cinema halls for Marathi films.

Coming Friday, three Marathi films have lined up for release. Everest Entertainment’s multi-starrer ‘Wedding cha Shinema‘ which is a debut film for director Saleel Kulkarni has raised some expectations because of the hype created on social media and also because of the renowned artistes like Mukta Barve, Bhau Kadam, Shivaji Satam, Alka Kubal being part of this film. From the name of the film, it sounds like a comedy film.

With ‘Kahi Kshan Premache‘ Subodh Bhave will begin the year 2019 along with his lead star Bhargavi Chirmule. Written and directed by Dr.Raj Mane, it remains to be seen how this love story of two matured people will be accepted by the audience. Director Milind Patil is also ready with his film ‘H2O‘ for release this Friday with lots of youngsters to create awareness about a social cause highlighting the scarcity of water, which is so relevant today.
Last year, after appearing in five films namely, Shubh Lagna Savadhan’, ’Majha Agadbam’, Pushpak Vimaan’, ’Savita Damodar Paranjape’ & ‘Aani Dr. Kashinath Ghanekar’, popular Marathi actor Subodh Bhave was seen in ongoing Marathi serial ‘Tula Pahate Re’ in the role of Vikram Saranjame. Subodh did receive good response from home viewers, but due to sudden shift towards negativity noticed in his character, many of his admirers openly criticized him stating that he does not suit in that negative type of role.

But now, Subodh will be back on big screen to begin the year 2019 with ‘Kahi Kshan Premache’, which is all set for release on 12th april 2019. Presented by Jyoti Prakash Films, Produced by Harichandra Gupta and written & directed by Dr. Raj Mane this so-called love story stars Subodh along with Bhargavi Chirmule, Viju Khote, Jairaj Nair, Maithili Warang, Dr. Vilas Ujavane, Jyoti Nisal, Dr. Chhaya mane and others. Cinematography by Jitendra Achrekar and music by Ashok Patki are the other credits of this film.
