मी शिवाजीराजे भोसले बोलतोय - Me Shivajiraje Bhosale Boltoy


“Mumbai is located in Maharashtra… but very little of Maharashtra is left in Mumbai” claims Satosh Manjrekar (Mahesh Manjrekar's brother) in his new Marathi Movie - Mi Shivajiraje Bhosale Boltoy.

The plot revolves around Dinkar Maruti Bhosale… a 4M – Middle-aged Middle-class Marathi Manoos… who keeps on grumbling about being sidelined in Mumbai for being Marathi! So he curses his 500 generations for his bad luck – the fact that he was born a Marathi… Shivaji’s sprit hears this and ‘marches’ into Mumbai to tell Marathi Manoos that he himself is responsible for the current state of affairs… ‘You have to command respect… not demand it!’

Sachin Khedekar looks perfect in the role of 4M… but Mahesh Manjrekar looks too tired and puffy to play Shivaji! 3M is amused that the movie is being released on 3rd April... just in time for LS elections… Art or Propaganda? Certainly looks less jingoistic than ‘Mumbai Aamchich’! Also Manjrekar is leaving no stone unturned to promote this movie... Google ads has been effectively used to ensure that the banner pops on all news related to 'Marathi', 'Maharashtra', 'Mumbai', 'Thackeray' etc... probably a first for any Marathi Movie!

TRAILER OF THE MOVIE

Psst... Psst... the music was launched by RajT last week... Hmm...

  8. Just saw the movie... first day evening show... The dialogues are amazing! Sachin Khedekar has done a fab job as Madhyamvargiya Marathi Manoos... Makarand Anaspure as 'Raiba' is hilarious... Quality of production is great... As expected from the trailer Sanjay Manjrekar looks too tired and old to play this inspiring role... but he wins hands down for such a brilliant script...

    3M will give this movie 3 1/2 stars... no... 4 stars for not being a politically motivated film. On the face of it, probably this movie may go down the history as the 'Highest Grossing Marathi Movie Ever'!

    Do see the movie... in a cinema hall... not on a pirated CD!

    BTW the protagonist in the movie is a Parlekar like ur 3M!
