Pandu will not make tall statements it stays accurate to the essence of Dada Kondke’s films, with one particular sole goal – that of entertaining the masses. And who greater to do that than two of the most effectively regarded comedians from the sector?
Bhau Kadam and Kushal Badrike staff up for this comedy, earning it the initially time for the two to be performing together on the significant display. The film begins with the Bhau (Pandu) and Kushal (Mhadu) performing at a programme in honour of politician Babasaheb Pathare (Pravin Tarde). Delighted with their general performance, Babasaheb fulfils their desire of doing a career for livelihood and gets them inducted as Hawaldars in the Mumbai police pressure. What follows is a comedy of mistakes, twists and turns, and a hatke climax.
Comedy with double meaning jokes is a challenging region. It requirements to have just the correct harmony a small a lot less can make it drab, and a tiny much more can make it crass. Director Viju Mane manages to strike a harmony, producing you giggle with just the proper tadka.
The performing section is whole of identified names and they produce what’s anticipated of them. Anyone else in location of Bhau Kadam for this position might not have strike the mark, but the ace comic nails each punch line though retaining a specified level of innocence. Kushal as Mhadu is the best companion to Bhau’s Pandu and provides an equally good overall performance. Neither of these two overpowers each and every other. Sonalee seems attractive no question, and she also gets to pack a punch (literally) as Usha. The actress’s aspect is pivotal to Pandu’s plot. Pravin Tarde commands the display screen as Babasaheb Pathare while Prajakta Mali emerges as a surprise deal in this equation as Babasaheb’s daughter.
As entertaining as Pandu’s initially 50 percent is, the film loses rate in the second 50 %. However the climax earns some brownie details, the film does not make a finish turnaround. There are some supporting characters included for comedian relief, but undertaking away with some of them would not genuinely have designed a lot of a variation. Hemangi Kavi, for instance, does not have substantially to do aside from establishing Mhadu’s married everyday living, nor does Shahbaz Khan.
All explained and accomplished, Bhau Kadam and Kushal Badrike’s camaraderie is the spotlight of the film. Which is also what most folks would go to look at the movie for. The two do not disappoint. The same cannot be said about the movie as a whole however.
