Assal MARATHI Movie-reviews
1.DHUDGUS
पैशांसाठी नाती विसरणारी जवळची माणसे, कठीण प्रसंगी मदतीला येणारे शेजारी आणि दु:खाच्या प्रसंगातही टाळूवरचे लोणी खाणारे राजकारणी या सर्व पार्श्वभूमीला कारुण्याची झालर देऊन त्यात हलक्याफुलक्या विनोदी प्रसंगाची पेरणी केल्यामुळे झी टॉकीजचा पडद्यावरचा 'धुडगूस' आनंद देतो.
लग्नानंतर लगेचच ड्युटीवर गेलेला बोरगावचा महादू गणपिसे सीमेवर शहीद होतो आणि नवऱ्याशी धड ओळखही न झालेली सुरेखा विधवा होते. परंतु, यामुळे घरात वेगळाच वाद निर्माण होतो. सासरची मंडळी सुरेखाला पांढऱ्या पायाची म्हणून दोष देऊन तिला माहेरी नेण्याचा आग्रह धरतात. तर लग्न झाल्यानंतर तिचे सर्वकाही सासरच आहे, असे सांगून माहेरची मंडळी जबाबदारी झटकतात.

हा घरगुती वाद रंगात आलेला असताना सरकारकडून महादूच्या विधवेला २५ लाख रुपये व जमीन देण्याची घोषणा होते आणि पैशाच्या लोभाने सासर व माहेरची मंडळी आपापल्या गटात पैशाच्या वाटणीची चर्चा करू लागतात. हे सर्व कमी म्हणून की काय बोरगावचा आजी आणि माजी सरपंच, या प्रसंगाचा राजकीय फायदा घेण्यासाठी एकमेकांवर कुरघोडी करण्याचे प्रयत्न करतात.

हुंड्यासाठी सुनेचा छळ, घरगुती संपत्तीच्या वादातून भावाभावांमध्ये होणारे वाद आणि कोर्टबाजी, गावात एकीकरण समिती स्थापून पुतळे उभारणे किंवा शाळेला नाव देण्यासाठी दोन किंवा तीन राजकीय गटांत होणारे हेवेदावे, अशा बातम्या वर्तमानपत्रांत वाचायला मिळतात. त्याचीच झलक या चित्रपटातून पाहायला मिळत असल्याने आपण वास्तव तर पाहात नाही ना, असे वाटते. त्यासाठी हा सिनेमा पाहायला हवा!

2.MARATHI
Maharathi (thriller)
Cast: Paresh Rawal, Naseeruddin Shah, Neha Dhupia, Boman Irani!
Direction: Shivam Nair
PARESH Rawal's popular Gujarati play which has been running for almost 21 years now and has already had 700 successful stage performances, opens on the big screen with a stellar cast. Needless to say, the expectations were sky high, specially since Bollywood doesn't really boast of too many taut thrillers of late. Maharathi doesn't disappoint, although the bindings of theatre do keep it more of an in-door affair, where people play out their crimes and misdemeanours and keep the viewer guessing with their mercurial shifts in moods and passion.

Naseeruddin essays the role of a has-been film director who seems to have fallen on bad days after marrying wannabe actress, Neha Dhupia. A complete mess of a man, he spends most of his time drinking and raging: a riveting picture of a man on the brink, waiting to explode. Petty thief, Paresh Rawal saves him from a near-death experience one night and becomes his most trusted aide, much to the discomfiture of spitfire Neha, who doesn't spare a chance to insult him. Naseer does end his sordid life, but not before creating a web of greed, deceit and treachery that binds together the assorted people in his life. The bait is the Rs 24 crore insurance money which is enough allurement to turn everybody -- wife Neha, savior Paresh, lawyer Boman -- into a bunch of predators.

So who's the meanest of them all? Play the guessing game, as loyalties change, mishaps occur and providence plays hookie with the grand masters. There are enough turns and twists in the plot to keep you in nail-biting mode, although the film does take time to build up towards a thrilling second half. Almost all the actors play out their roles to perfection. If Naseer renders a copy book act of a success-gone-sour story, then Paresh is matchless as the man with a million moods, most of them being fake. Boman Irani, minus his exaggerations, is eminently watchable, but it is Neha Dhupia who seems to be growing after her association with alternate cinema.

If you want a taste of a desi version of Sleuth, Peter Shaffer's spellbinding play-turned-film, go watch Maharathi. The story may be different, the edge of danger is almost similar.
