Apparently, Make-up and Clothing department have not put a single effort to visualize 80’s. It is love triangle, then square and if given some more time, may turn into infinite polygon.īearing the 80’s look as depicted in the novel, movie fails to show you any features of 80’s other than a Royal Enfield and a Dukkar Fiat. Rest of the story contains nothing but love complications in Shreyas’ and DSP’s life. Sainath Devgaokar (Jitendra Joshi) plays a quirky villain who is on exactly opposite side of DSP. Shreyas, who is mistaken at first, becomes permanent and important member of Katta Gang due to his street smartness and “oral” skills. There are two female leads Shrin Ghatge (Sai Tamhankar) and Meenakshi Inamdaar (Urmila Kanitkar). Katta Gang consists of their leader DSP- Digambar Shankar Paril (Ankush Choudhari) and few other forgettable characters. Talking about the movie, this is a story of Shreyas Talwalkar (Swapnil Joshi) admitted in SP College, Pune for a Post Graduate course and the adventures he follows during his college period which includes his “Katta Gang”. Adopted from classic novel of the same name (by Late Suhas Shirwalkar or Su.Shi.), this film leads you nowhere near to the entertainment in the novel. Duniyadari has made my belief shattered into pieces. As far now, I was strongly in belief that if you make a Cinema by adopting a good novel, it would never go worse, no matter how much alteration you make to the original storyline.

More or less is the case with Duniyadari. If you pack a load of crap with golden paper and keep it for sale, it would definitely attract some buyers.

There were bad films then and there are bad films now. Because of this, today’s generation has started to believe that Marathi movies made between 1980’s and 2000’s were bad and pain to watch. This line is hammered to us so many times. “The Transforming period of Marathi Film industry is here”.
