Pandu does not make tall claims it stays accurate to the essence of Dada Kondke’s movies, with one particular sole purpose – that of entertaining the masses. And who far better to do that than two of the most effectively acknowledged comedians from the market?
Bhau Kadam and Kushal Badrike team up for this comedy, producing it the very first time for the two to be acting collectively on the major monitor. The film begins with the Bhau (Pandu) and Kushal (Mhadu) accomplishing at a programme in honour of politician Babasaheb Pathare (Pravin Tarde). Delighted with their general performance, Babasaheb fulfils their want of undertaking a occupation for livelihood and receives them inducted as Hawaldars in the Mumbai law enforcement pressure. What follows is a comedy of problems, twists and turns, and a hatke climax.
Comedy with double meaning jokes is a tough region. It desires to have just the correct harmony a minimal fewer can make it drab, and a tiny a lot more can make it crass. Director Viju Mane manages to strike a balance, creating you chuckle with just the correct tadka.
The performing section is comprehensive of acknowledged names and they provide what’s expected of them. Any one else in area of Bhau Kadam for this job may perhaps not have strike the mark, but the ace comic nails each and every punch line even though retaining a specific degree of innocence. Kushal as Mhadu is the fantastic companion to Bhau’s Pandu and delivers an equally fantastic functionality. Neither of these two overpowers every single other. Sonalee appears to be gorgeous no doubt, and she also gets to pack a punch (basically) as Usha. The actress’s aspect is pivotal to Pandu’s plot. Pravin Tarde instructions the screen as Babasaheb Pathare whilst Prajakta Mali emerges as a surprise deal in this equation as Babasaheb’s daughter.
As entertaining as Pandu’s initial fifty percent is, the film loses pace in the second 50 percent. Although the climax earns some brownie details, the movie doesn’t make a comprehensive turnaround. There are some supporting characters additional for comedian relief, but executing away with some of them would not definitely have designed a great deal of a change. Hemangi Kavi, for illustration, doesn’t have a great deal to do in addition to establishing Mhadu’s married lifestyle, nor does Shahbaz Khan.
All mentioned and accomplished, Bhau Kadam and Kushal Badrike’s camaraderie is the emphasize of the film. Which is also what most people would go to look at the film for. The two never disappoint. The exact are not able to be stated about the film as a complete nevertheless.
