Movie Review by: Ulhas Shirke |
Many Marathi films have shown in the past, how the shrewd politicians exploit their loyal party workers and when time comes, they expect them to sacrifice even their lives for themselves. In the past, film like ‘Zenda’ showed such characters. Through many Bollywood films, we have seen the politicians finishing off their own loyal workers, after they achieve what they desired for.
New Marathi film ‘Vijay Aso’ shows the loyalty of one such young loyalist party worker Shankar Gawade (Chinmay Mandlekar), who with the help of his supporters is ready to even sacrifice his life for his Boss- the Forest Minister of Maharashtra – Mr. Prakashdada Jadhav (Murali Sharma). Prakashdada is into all illegal trade and is also involved in a scam. The media is exposing him from time to time; but Prakashdada manages to cover up the issues using his influence in ruling party.
When TV Journalist Shrikant Pathak (Ganesh Yadav) exposes Prakashdada, through a sting operation carried out on his Forest department secretary, Shankar dares to slap Shrikant in his office after damaging his office furniture, with the help of his team. In fact, Shankar plays an agent to supply people for different public rallies organized by Politicians. Journalist Shrikant is well aware of that and he also gets a clue about the dirty game planned by Prakashdada , using Shankar’s people to teach a lesson to his party chief , when he gets the news about his removal from the Ministry.
When Shankar’s people are killed in the police firing; during a rally, as per Prakashdada’s plan, Shankar boils in revenge against Prakashdada. At this moment, Shrikant comes to his rescue and saves Shankar’s life. He educates Shankar and advises him to take his revenge in a different manner. The climax of the film is not predictable, as Shankar succeeds in his mission in a different way. The film not only shows the way to eliminate bad politicians; but also makes the loyal workers aware of the moves of their leaders. It also highlights the present situation in the state of Maharashtra, which is full of scams and the dirty games played by politicians to retain their Ministry.
Script of the film is nothing new; but it sends a strong message to the unemployed youngsters; especially the young party workers, who are used by the Politicians. It also shows how a shrewd politician eliminates his own blood relation, when it comes to gaining sympathy to retain his position. Screenplay by Chinmay Mandlekar & Vivek gore is filled with action packed scenes, besides few emotion filled sequences.
In the role of Shankar Gawde, Chinmay Mandlekar perfectly fits into that character, which is developed by himself, through the script. He is the new angry young man of Marathi films, walking on the footsteps of Nana Patekar. Watch him taking the revenge in the climax and you will start believing his ability. Murali Sharma poses a challenge to all those villains in Marathi film industry. After his appearance in ‘Ajintha’ and ‘ Hello Jai Hind!’, he seems to have worked very hard on his diction in marathi. He plays a cunning politician in his own style to impress one and all. Don’t be surprised, if he is nominated as an actor in negative role in forthcoming popular awards.
Namrata Gaikwad has limited scope; but she has played her part well, especially in emotion filled sequences. Ganesh Yadav in the role of a TV journalist does a fine job. Among the supporting cast, Veteran Janardan Parab, versatile Amita Khopkar, Kedar Shinde and other young artistes have played their parts very well. Debutant Amitraj has offered good music on meaningful lyrics by team of Guru Thakur, Sachin Darekar, Rupesh and Ashish. Imran and Faisal Mahadik have done a skillful editing work. Last but not the least, Cinematographer and director Rahul Jadhav in his dual role, has used his creativity in presenting some of the sequences, creating the desired impact. Though this film is based on same old Political theme, the presentation part is good.
