Pravin Tarde announces launch of ‘Deool Band 2′
During the period of lock down for the past three months, we saw even the temples under lock and key, with the permission given only for Pandits to perform pooja. The people have been prevented from entering the temples even during the big festivals like Ashadhi Ekadashi, to avoid rush and keeping in mind social distancing norms. This Ashadhi Ekadashi saw Pandharpur in total silence. And then Guru Poornima also witnessed silence at temples.
However , writer director Pravin Tarde was busy writing his script for his next films during the past three months. On the occasion of auspicious Guru Poornima day, he made official announcement of completion of his complete script for ‘Deool Band 2′ and also declared that this film will be released on Guru Poornima day next year. For this second part, Pravin Tarde has added a tagline ‘Aata Pariksha Devachi’ which goes very well with the present crisis. According to Pravin Tarde this Part 2 of Deool Band will be focused on farmers.
It may be recalled that the Part 1 of ‘Deool Band’ achieved tremendous success at the Box office and therefore there are big expectations from Part 2 also. However , it remains to be seen who will play the role of Swami . The Swami played by Mohan Joshi is part 1 is still fresh in our memory. There is also curiosity about the entire cast of this film, which is expected to be disclosed soon.
Zee5 offers variety of popular Marathi plays
During this lock down period what the regular Marathi theatre audience is missing is their favourite pastime of watching Marathi plays in drama theatres. For such people Zee Marathi has offered variety of old Marathi plays in video format. Some prominent pays in the list are, ‘Natasamrat’ starring Mohan Joshi and Rohini Hattangadi. ‘Aaranyak’ starring Dilip Prabhavalkar, Ravi Patwardhanand Pratibha Matkari.
1988 play ‘Kusum Manohar Lele’ starring Shubhangi Joshi, Bal Karve, Manda Desai and Dr. Girish Oak is also another attraction on this Zee5 app, besides another popular play ‘Vahato Hi Durvanchi Judi’ starring Subodh Bhave in the lead role. There is also ‘Kachecha Chandra’ starring Sharad Ponkshe and Harshada Khanvilkar while ‘Vegala Vhaychay Mala’ starring Nivedita Joshi and Jayant Savarkar is also another good choice. Among the other plays in the list are, ‘Pappa Sanga Kunache’ with Late Anand Patwardhan, ‘Goshta Janmantarichi’ with Mohan Joshi and ‘Ghar Shrimantanche’ with Sudhir Joshi.
‘Miss You Miss’ will be a tribute to Ashwini Ekbote
Talented stage, television and film actress Ashwini Ekbote is no more. But, her last film ‘Miss you Miss’ will certainly pay tributes to her. Directed by Shyam Nimbalkar this will is all set for release on 17th January 2010 and the second poster of this film recently released on social media, clearly shows her photo prominently along with veteran actor Mohan Joshi and other lead artistes Bhagyesh Desai & Tejaswi Patil. The entire team of this film has paid tributes to Ashwini Ekbote, as clearly noticed on this poster.
In this film Ashwini Ekbote will be seen playing the mother of lead actress Tejaswi Patil. But, it is not known, who is playing the title role in this film. While speaking about his experience of working with Ashwini, director Shyam Nimbalkar says, “Ashwini always used to tell me on the sets of this film that she would like to be part of my next film too. Unfortunately, that did not happen. But, the show must go on. So, we decided to pay her tributes through this film.”
Produced by Sunil Raghunath Mahadik, Kshama Hippergekar and Rohandeep Singh, the film stars Mohan Joshi, Tejaswi Patil, Bhagyesh Desai and Kishore Nandalskar in lead roles.

|
In the recent past we have seen newspaper reports and TV news highlighting the attacks on senior citizens. Some of the attacks have been either over property issues by close relatives or even by builders and developers threatening them to vacate a particular plot. Many a times such people are found murdered in their own houses. We have seen such harassment suffered by senior citizens through many Hindi and Marathi films in the past. In 2010 there was a Marathi film ‘Second Innings’ which showed how a group of senior citizens fight with proper planning to take the revenge of murder of their friend.
The latest released Marathi film ‘Senior Citizen’ produced by Pramod Mohite and creative producer Raju Savla and written- directed by Ajay Phansekar present the extra ordinary self defence skills of 75 year old retired Major General Abhay Deshpande (Played by Mohan Joshi) , who has won many bravery awards including gallantry award. Popularly known as Tiger among his morning walk senior citizens group friends , the retired army officer lives with his wife Lakshmi ( Smita Jaykar) in a bungalow. His young son has already sacrificed his life for the country, while serving Indian army. Still very active with his office work , while running a security agency Mr. Deshpande keeps himself busy, while his wife trains young girls in dancing at their own bungalow.
One day, Mr. Deshpande counters the attackers who are beating up an old man. With all his strength and strategies he knocks down the attackers. His bravery act is noticed by a TV News reporter Sunita Rao ( Sheetal Kshirsagar) who makes him a hero and is eager to interview him soon. In the meanwhile many such incidences happen in Mr. Deshpande’s life , including the murder of old couple in the neighbourhood. This makes him feel helpless. But, his encouraging wife tries to instill his self confidence.
How Major General Deshpande regains his self confidence to face more trouble in his life bravely, is what the film is all about. At the same time the writer director has also linked the so called freethinking section of young generation of today, which is being drawn towards drugs and rave parties and later black mailed by the party organisers. The message sent through this film is very clear – ‘Never take the senior citizens for granted’. There could be someone very tough like Abhay Deshpande who will challenge such attackers by demonstrating his ‘One Punch Knock out’ strategy.
The performances by all the artistes are good. But, Mohan Joshi stands tall among them with his wonderful portrayal of Maj. Gen. Abhay Deshpande. Good support comes from Smita Jaykar, Shital Kshirsagar, Kamalesh Sawant and a big team of youngsters. Technically, it is a well made film, but two songs are misfit into the screenplay. Extra time has also been wasted in the gimmicks of party organizer and his blackmail practices. Abhijit Narvekar’s music is just fine, but DOP B. Laxman has done a good job in capturing all action scenes. All in all, this film will certainly inspires people from all age groups.
Trailer of forthcoming Marathi film ‘Dom’ launched
‘Dom’ is the name of a community, which works in crematorium to perform last rites of the deceased. It also shows how the next generation of this community is reluctant to carry forward their traditional profession and hence revolts against the system.
