J. K. Movies new marathi film ‘Target’ is an action filled political thriller with a dose of youth angst. The story is about five idle friends Sanjubhai (Sanjay Narvekar) who thinks he is a ‘bhai’, Anky(Ankush Chowdhary) a builder’s son, who is a skirt chaser, Swapnil(Swapnil Joshi) -politician Vishwasrao’s (Vinay Apte’s) son, who is disillusioned with his father, the Home Minister of the state finding no time for his family,Sattar( Siddharth Jadhav)- a meat shop owner’s son with a penchant for the handycam and Paddy (Bhushan Kadu) -a pizza delivery boy.
These boys become friends with three girls played by Kranti Redkar, Tejaswini Pandit and Smita Gondkar after a lot of minor tiffs. Once, they attend a rave party in a farmhouse in a jungle, where a cop (Vivekanand Gore) tries to arrest Swapnil for drugs possession but then all the friends run helter shelter in the jungle and then they see a child sacrifice being performed in the jungle and then chance upon another boy who is kidnapped.
They rescue him but the bad guys are after them and whether they survive in the jungle and get the villains into jail and solve the ‘sacrifice’ mystery is the plot of the film.
The film moves at a brisk speed once the characters are established and the adventures captured in the jungle are really thrilling. Director duo Vivekanand Gore and Rajesh Kolan give the film a kind of ‘LOST’ series look and those umpteen teen campus drive-in movies that were a rage in the US in the 80’S. The political angle is a much repeated track.
The performances by the artistes are good, especially Kranti Redkar and Sanjay Narvekar. Swapnil Joshi plays a serious type of role with conviction. The cinematography by Sandeep Patil is slick, especially the jungle sequences. Cameos by Vinay Apte and Sanjay Mone are impressive. The item number by Manasi Naik was unnecessary.The music by Jeetendra Kulkarni and Abhijeet Kavthalkar is not up-to the mark.
The editor Sarvesh Parab could have used more pace in the first half. In all, the film will appeal to the youth and is good for a lazy evening hangout, when you need the air-conditioned ambience of a multiplex.
MANASI NAIK
Manasi Naik, the young talented and hard working girl from Pune made her headway into Marathi films through Mahesh kothatre’s film ‘Jabardast’. Soon she went on to win the Celebrity Television Reality dance show ‘Halla Bol’ proving her class as a dancer. Manasi later turned to the small screen performing prominent roles through popular Marathi TV serials, where she had ample scope to prove her acting skills. Now, she is back on the big screen, with her latest released film ‘Tukya Tukavila Nagya Nachavila’, where she plays lead opposite Pushkar Jog, with whom she had made her debut in films.
Manasi found time to chit chat with MMW, during a function of her films release.
Q: How was your experience working with a film maker like Kanchan Adhikari?
A: She is a well organized director and hence it was a great pleasure working with a woman like her. As a person, she is very kind hearted.
Q: This is your second film with Pushkar. How do you find him as a co-star?
A; Yes, after ‘Jabardast’, which was a debut for both of us, we had this opportunity to prove that our pairing was well accepted. Pushkar is a wonderful person and I enjoyed working with him.
Mansi Naik
Q: You also proved your class as a dancer in a TV reality show. How did you face the competition ?
A: It was a good competition. With every round that progressed, I kept on challenging myself and that spirit helped me to win.
Q: Was it your only wish to become an actress ?
A: Actually, I wanted to become a doctor and hence opted for science stream in Fergusson College, Pune. At that time, I used to be model for Magazine cover girl, besides other modeling assignemnts. One day I received an offer from Mahesh Kothare, who was looking for a fresh face opposite Pushkar Jog. I fitted into the requirement and that’s how I became an actress.
Q: How encouraging were your parents when you received this offer?
A: In fact, my father who is a scientist with NCL and mother who is an auditor, wanted me to become a scientist. But, how could they come in the way of an offer from a reputed film maker like Mahesh Kothare? When I made up my mind, they supported my decision.
Q: Any forthcoming films ?
A: You will watch me in special role performing an item number in a forthcoming film ‘Target’.
