Power and honor are the two most
seductive achievements most human beings can kill for. They are capable of
destroying love, innocence, relations, friends, neighbors and even societies.
One will always remember this film for the moments that will shock and startle
them. The crazy love an innocent teenager feels for a girl, the cockiness and
brashness of a village girl who happens to be the daughter of a powerful
politician, a teacher being slapped by the politicians son when asked to
behave, the innocent romance between two young people as it blossoms, songs like "Zingaat" that literally made many from the audience leave their seats and dance in front
of the screen (mind you, this was in a multiplex!), the lustful vengeance of
the powerful for defying the social norms, daring lovers to make it on their
own and a heart wrenching and stomach churning end that will take a few minutes
to sink. I have always known Marathi cinema to showcase extraordinary talent in
its narratives, lead performances and simple yet poignant composition.
The
rural settings and dialects cause a strong connection for the Marathi audience
which was present in strength on a week night. It also made for the
entertainment quotient in the rural nuances and ways of life. The lead actors,
Rinku Rajguru and Akash Thosar showcase raw talent and great acting prowess in
their performances. Rinku exudes confidence and craft while Akash will win your
heart with his handsome looks and boyish charm. It can boast of three
sensational numbers that will be hummed by most Marathis for a long time. The complete characters, identifiable cast, simple narrative, songs with panoramic picturization and divine music reminded me of Mani Ratnam films several times. The
film does drag towards the ending, however the execution of an interesting
theme is remarkable making this film a must watch.
#Sairat movie not only nailed the cinemaz, but Zhing Zhing Zhingaat Slayed it.
