"Pail te Sumbaran (पैल ते सुंबरान)"
Watched Marathi movie "Pail te Sumbaran (पैल ते सुंबरान)". This film is directed by Gajendra Ahire and produced by Anil Phadtare. Story is by Gajendra Ahire. Music is by Rahul Ranade. The film runs for about 2 hour 4 min and was released in 2009.
It has a star studded cast including Jitendra Joshi, Sai Tamhankar, Mukta Barve, Siddharth Jadhav, Ravi Kale, Ravindra Mankani, Jayant Sawarkar, Seema Deshmukh, Aditi Bhagwat, Ashwini Kalsekar, Vrinda Ahire and Makarand Anaspure.
Two brothers; elder Vasant, a bank clerk and younger Veeru, a musician decide to visit their ancestral home. As they start their journey they go down the memory lane to their childhood.
What are the memories? How was their childhood? Are there skeletons in the closet of the past?
Movie starts with a beautiful song. It's a song based on folk music (lok sangeet). As the movie progresses, audience start to gain glimpses and insights in the past of the family. A wealthy and revered family. How one event exposes the facade and what transpires after that.
The movie depicts the social gap between two classes and how the semblance of this gap being bridged crumbles with the first touch of reality. It also shows how education and the lack of it can reverse the roles within a span of one generation.
All the actors are proven actors. Makarand Anaspure and Mukta Barve deserve a special mention. They shine in the crowd of talent. Direction is good. The ancestral home is impressive.
Watch if you have spare time on hand.
