Pandu won’t make tall statements it stays accurate to the essence of Dada Kondke’s films, with one particular sole intent – that of entertaining the masses. And who superior to do that than two of the most perfectly known comedians from the market?
Bhau Kadam and Kushal Badrike staff up for this comedy, creating it the initially time for the two to be acting alongside one another on the large display screen. The movie commences with the Bhau (Pandu) and Kushal (Mhadu) undertaking at a programme in honour of politician Babasaheb Pathare (Pravin Tarde). Pleased with their general performance, Babasaheb fulfils their would like of undertaking a position for livelihood and gets them inducted as Hawaldars in the Mumbai police force. What follows is a comedy of errors, twists and turns, and a hatke climax.
Comedy with double indicating jokes is a tough region. It desires to have just the proper stability a very little fewer can make it drab, and a small additional can make it crass. Director Viju Mane manages to strike a stability, producing you chuckle with just the ideal tadka.
The acting office is complete of regarded names and they deliver what’s envisioned of them. Any individual else in area of Bhau Kadam for this purpose may not have hit the mark, but the ace comedian nails each and every punch line whilst retaining a certain level of innocence. Kushal as Mhadu is the great companion to Bhau’s Pandu and delivers an similarly fantastic efficiency. Neither of these two overpowers each individual other. Sonalee seems to be attractive no doubt, and she also receives to pack a punch (virtually) as Usha. The actress’s aspect is pivotal to Pandu’s plot. Pravin Tarde instructions the screen as Babasaheb Pathare even though Prajakta Mali emerges as a shock package deal in this equation as Babasaheb’s daughter.
As entertaining as Pandu’s to start with fifty percent is, the film loses pace in the second half. Though the climax earns some brownie points, the movie does not make a comprehensive turnaround. There are some supporting characters included for comic reduction, but performing away with some of them wouldn’t seriously have produced a lot of a big difference. Hemangi Kavi, for case in point, doesn’t have a great deal to do aside from establishing Mhadu’s married lifetime, nor does Shahbaz Khan.
All reported and done, Bhau Kadam and Kushal Badrike’s camaraderie is the spotlight of the movie. Which is also what most men and women would go to enjoy the movie for. The two don’t disappoint. The similar are not able to be said about the movie as a whole although.
