"T. C. G. N. (Take care good night)"
Watched Marathi movie "T. C. G. N. (Take care good night)".
This film is directed by Girish Joshi and stars Sachin Khedekar, Iravati Harshe, Parna Pethe, Mahesh Manjrekar, Adinath Kothare, Vidyadhar Joshi, Sulekha Talwalkar, Sanskruti Balgude and Jaywant Wadkar.
Sachin Khedekar, a technologically illiterate guy, decides to take VRS. After receiving his settlement, he and his wife go on Europe route. When he comes back he realises that some one had withdrawn 50 Lakh from his account. To add to it someone has posted first part of compromising video of his daughter on internet.
Who has stolen his money? Will the subsequent part of his daughter's video be damaging? Will he come out of the scam? Will police help? How will he react?
This movie has powerful performances by Sachin Khedekar and Mahesh Manjrekar. With such stalwarts others get limited scope but young Parna creates her own niche. Iravati Harshe appears a bit stiff and Vidyadhar Joshi is as good as always. Adinath Kothare is the surprise package, a good one.
Story is good. Acting is very good. Cinematography is apt. Don't remember music. This movie handles today's pertinent issue of cyber hacking and phishing. I am not aware what the target audience producers had in mind but people in their mid forties to late fifties need to watch as the technological details are limited.
Director has done a good job of keeping the audience interested and has used recent flashbacks effectively. However, I thought that the story is presented in a simplistic manner. Hacking is not addressed. Focus is on how the problem is solved rather than what the problem is. Nevertheless, producer and director have handled a very current subject and deserve praise for it.
Recommend watching.
