Releasing three or four films together is not new to Marathi film industry. During the past few years we saw this happen and also witnessed how their business affected due to sharing of cinema halls and that too while competing with Hindi films. But that doesn’t seem to bother Marathi film makers. This Friday four Marathi films have announced their release simultaneously. So, only God knows what will be their fate in this competitive world.

Ek Sangaychay…Unsaid Harmony‘ starring Bollywood actor Kay Kay Menon and directed by Lokesh Gupte deals with a social issue, while writer director Girish Vishwanath presents an emotional bonding of a teenager with her pet dog through his film ‘Vanilla Strawberry and Chocolate‘. There is another film ‘Naal‘ on a sensible subject presented by National award winning film maker Nagraj Manjule , which is directed by Sudhakar Reddy Yakkanti, while Avadhoot Gupte presented film ‘Gat Mat‘ directed by Nishit Shrivastava and based on youngsters also stands in the race.

Only last week we saw a Marathi biopic ‘Ani Dr. Kashinath Ghanekar‘ drawing full house at many theatres and even scoring over a big banner Hindi film. Therefore, this film is expected to continue with its success this week too. So, it remains to be seen how these four films will succeed in inviting audience at the cinema halls where they are released.

Thanks to versatile actor Subodh Bhave, who has put his heart& soul, while portraying the central character of Late Dr. Kashinath Ghanekar.

Written and directed by Abhijeet Shirish Deshpande , the film has very skillfully presented this biopic paying more attention on the real happenings in the life of the Superstar . What makes this film stand apart from the other biopics on legends is that, it has paid more attention not only on the personality traits of the central character, but also his weaknesses, which saw his downfall and end, due to his involvement in excessive smoking, drinking, besides his Extramarital affairs .

The rivalry between Dr.  Kashinath Ghanekar  and Dr. Shreeram Lagoo has been clearly shown through many scenes, when they come face to face on few occasions. Sumeet Raghavan who has portrayed the role of Dr. Shreeram Lagoo, has also done justice to his role. However, Prasad Oak, who plays the role of Late Prabhakar Panshikar who always stood by his friend, has proved that he has the potential to play such challenging roles. Nandita Dhuri who plays his first wife Dr. Irawati , Sonali Kulkarni who plays Sulochana Didi, Mohan Joshi in the role of Bhalji Pendharkar and Anand Ingale who plays the role of playwright Vasant Kanetkar have also proved their mettle in many conflicting scenes with Subodh . But, young Vaidehi Parshurami steals the show, while portraying an equally important character of Kanchan, whom Dr. Kashinath married later.

The director has shown his creativity in the screenplay through many important scenes. The film exposes many hidden facts from the Marathi stage especially during 60s and 70s. While showing the rise of Dr. Kashinath’s rival Dr. Shreeram Lagoo with a picturisation of a song on Sumeet Raghavan & Amruta Khanvilkar from his old hit film ‘Pinjra’, he has simultaneously shown the ex marital affair of Dr. Kashinath with young Kanchan who is not only his great fan but madly in love with him. Dr. Kashinath’s interaction with Sulochanadidi after the later comes to know about her daughter’s affair with him and also his father (played by Pradeep Velankar) and finally the climax scene, display the real emotions of the respective characters.
