But, more than that director Pravin Tarde has cleverly made this two hours 50 minutes long film interesting, with action filled sequences supported by some attention grabbing emotion filled moments.
The Character of the present chief minister of Maharashtra Mr. Eknath Shinde has lot of prominence in this film, as he is shown as the most trusted man of Anand Dighe. The focus is more on the present day happening where the character of Mr. Eknath Shinde as Minister played by Kshitij Date walks in for the 20th death anniversary event of his mentor Late Anand Dighe, which is being covered by a female Journalist . She has very little knowledge about Mr. Anand Dighe through Google search and is briefed by a local Auto Rickshaw driver and his narration about Dharmaveer Anand Dighe takes you in flashback.
Technically it is a well made film with perfect editing work by Mayur Hardas and excellent cinematography by Kedar Gaikwad. Many renowned Marathi artistes like Mohan Joshi, Abhijit Khandkekar, Mangesh Desai have appeared in small but important roles in this film. At the same time Kshitij Date, Shruti Marathe, Makarand Padhye, Vijay Nikam, Snehal Tarde and others have supported well through their respective important characters. ‘Dharmaveer’ is certainly a worth watch film, to understand the rise of Shiv Sena in Maharashtra politics with the help of such a dedicated leader from Thane and his trusted team members.
