After directing  films like ‘Mangalashtaka Once More’,  ‘Mamachya Gavala Jaoo Ya’ and multi starrer ‘Bus stop’ writer- director Sameer  Joshi is back with his latest presentation ‘Miss You Mister’. Starring  Siddharth Chandekar and Mrunmayee Deshpande in the lead characters  of Varun and Kaveri  a newly married couple , who are working hard in their respective jobs, to purchase the office premises of their own to make Varun’s father (Rajan Bhise) happy, as he has lost everything in his business, due to heavy non repayment  of  loans.

To earn more money, Varun signs  an 18 month contract with a UK company and proceeds to London. Both Varun and Kaveri find it very difficult to stay separately and are constantly involved in skype calls and whats app messages and videos. However, the latest technology is not enough to keep them strongly bonded. Some happenings create  misunderstandings between them. But, their love brings back Varun  on a short vacation mid way of his contract. Even after coming back, Varun has his own commitments to his parents and friends, which makes  kaveri more desperate and she decides to move to her parents place. Her only connect is her cousin Rucha( Deepti Lele) , who has also gone through a break up, as her would be prefers to shift to Delhi. The series of interesting happenings which follow, finally bring them together.

Script writer and director Sameer Hemant  Joshi  has tried to present a light entertainer  which is filled with emotions. Through this film, he talks about the importance of proper communication and trust between a newly married couple .  But, at the same time he has tried to show that just expressing love for each other and constantly chatting over  phone or  video calls is not enough to  understand each other well. In short, he has focused more on how the long distance relationship takes a toll on the newly weds. The happenings in their respective offices and Kaveri’s interactions with Varun’s parents, with her own parents and also with Rucha are picturised very well in a humorous way At the same Varun & Kaveri’s  encounter with a  family friend cum counsellor ( Hrishikesh Joshi) has something worth  to convey to young couples. .  The director has conveniently avoided melodrama in the screenplay and has paid more attention on humour arising out of many important situations.

Through their respective roles, Siddharth and Mrunmayee have done full justice to their characters . Mrunmayee certainly finds better scope but both of them together have given realistic look to almost all the scenes including those intimate scenes filmed on them. Good support comes from  Rajan Bhise, Savita Prabhune, Avinash Narkar, Radhika Vidyasagar, Hrishikesh Joshi and Deepti Lele through their  respective supporting roles.  Kedar Gaekwad’s cinematography &  Sayali Soman’s costumes  makes this film more presentable. There isn’t any  scope for music, as the director pays more attention on his interesting screenplay. But, the apt back- ground music and effective  sound designing does invite the attention of the audience.

All in all ‘Miss U Mister’ is a worth watch film especially for young couples  and their parents.
