The post Moruchi Mavshi (2019) (मोरूची मावशी) appeared first on .

Just two weeks ago, there was a Marathi film ‘Cycle‘ which dealt with an object in the form of a Bicycle, which made its presence felt in the film with its abnormal looks. The film also showed how a person could be so possessive about this Bicycle and its sudden disappearance would make his life miserable. Now, director Sagar Chhaya Vanjari has presented somewhat similar kind of theme through his latest released film ‘Redu‘, which is also set on the backdrop of picturesque Konkan but during the period of early 70s.

‘Redu‘ which means a radio in short form in that region’s local language, plays an important object in this film, almost like a character, as those days( 1972) it was the biggest medium of communication and entertainment in almost every household in cities and towns but not in villages. In villages, it was like a luxury item. The story of ‘Redu‘ revolves around Tatu ( Shashank Shende) a hard working labourer in a small village, who did all odd jobs along with his wife Chhaya( Chhaya Kadam) to earn enough for the day to day living and meet the small demands of his only little daughter Saru( Mrunmayee Supal). One day, Tatu’s sister in law Suman( Gauri Konge) arrives from Mumbai along with her husband Baban( Vinamra Bhabal)to spend time with the family for four days. While returning home, Baban presents his portable Radio to Tatu as a parting gift.

The possession of this new gift makes Tatu more than happy as it not only brings happiness into his monotonous life but also becomes his prized possession. One day this prized possession goes missing , which makes Tatu restless. He suspects his nephew who had visited his place, besides suspecting theft. So, the search goes on, as Tatu cannot concentrate on his labour work. His wife Chhaya accompanies him in that search operation visiting nearby villages. What he discovers during this search operation is an unusual experience for Tatu. And, this is the best part of this film, which identifies it on the lines of world cinema.

Wonderful Performances by all the lead characters is the plus point of this film. Shashank Shende is at his best with good support coming from others. However, talented Child artiste Mrunmayee Supal hasn’t found much scope in her role of Saru. The slangs used in Malwani language are very well used in the dialogues of this film, to give a perfect local feel of 70s, besides creating humour. Fine Cinematography of Mangesh Gadekar captures the natural beauty of Konkan in 70s, while Vijay Gavande‘s music is very apt to every important situation in this film. Certainly a worth watch film for all those lovers of artistic cinema and especially those who belong to Konkan.

Marathi film ‘Redu‘ which was selected for screening at prestigious film festivals has also received Arvindan Award from Kerala’s Chalat Chitra Academy. And now, this film has received 9 nominations at the State Film awards, including one declared award in best make up section for Shrikant Desai. The film ‘Redu‘ has also been shortlisted among the ten best films to be eligible for consideration of state award.

Director of this film Sagar Vanjhari is more than happy with this response for his film. “I am glad that my debut film ‘Redu’ has been considered for state awards with so many nominations and this makes me feel extremely pleased with this gesture,” he said. Another debutant Naval Kishore Sarda who has produced this film said that for a long time it was his wish to produce a film and with ‘Redu‘ that wish has not only been fulfilled but his dream for making a good quality film has also come true, with these nine nominations for the film.

Albert Einstein once said, “Learn from yesterday, Live for today, Hope for tomorrow”. This is what happened with actor Vinamra Bhabal. His past experience in experimental theatre boosted his confidence to live with the hope in the present. Besides doing experimental plays, he tried hard to find roles in commercial plays. One day, he received the call from Nandu, the office assistant at Drama Producer Sudhir Bhat’s office, where he had enrolled his name with phone number. There was a small role for him in the play ‘Beimaan’ and Vinamra immediately said ‘Yes’.

‘Beimaan’ was Vinamra’s first commercial play, but his performances in experimental plays also continued simultaneously and in one of the one-act play competitions, Vinamra’s play bagged many awards, including his award for best actor. At this competition, Mandar Deosthali was the judge and he immediately signed Vinmara for his TV serial ‘Majhe Pati Saubhagyavati’, without taking his audition.

Today, we also find him in Mandar’s ongoing serial ‘Phulpakharu’. Recently, we also saw him in Sanjay Jadhav’s hit Marathi film ‘Ye Re Ye Re Paisa’. In Hindi TV serials, he was seen in ‘Crime Petrol’, ‘Maharana Pratap’ & ‘Phir Subah Hogi’, besides a web series ‘Tata Genuine Parts’. At present, he has few Marathi films in hand and his next film to be released soon is ‘Jaga Vegali Antyatra‘, in which he plays a prominent role. And, this is a good progress for a young actor like him.
