Nana Patekar starrer Natsamrat releases on January 1, 2015.
Our reviewer Preeti Kulkarni is watching the press show right now. This is what she has to say about the film:
It would be unfair to say that Nana Patekar has delivered his career best performance in this film for the actor has delivered so many dhamakedaar roles till date that you will lose count
Yet, Natsamrat is special for Nana. After watching the movie you will realise what this actor does to the film and what the film does to you. The role of the iconic Belwalkar is DREAM for any actor, anywhere. Natsamrat is adapted from V V Shirwadkar’s historic play which is celebrated by masses since decades. This role was once played by celebrated artistes like Satish Dubhashi and Shriram Lagoo. Nana Patekar colours this part in his own style, leaving you wanting for more. You will get so engrossed in the narrative and Nana’s spectacular dialogue delivery that you will forget everything else. You will cry and laugh at the same time, such is the power for this film and we are not kidding.
The plot of the story revolves around the protagonist who once a renowned theatre artiste or Natsamrat is reduced to a homeless wretch, counting his last days amidst the burnt remains of his theatre company. The intense portions of the film wil sure make you feel uneasy but Nana and Vikram Gokhale’s wry, wicked humour especially at the time of adversity will catch you unawares, make you laugh as you wipe a tear unselfconsciously trickling from your eye. You will instantly relate to this film if you love performing arts and appreciate beauty in all its forms and kinds.
The first half ends on a sombre note as Nana‘s character messes up big time as he embarrasses his grown up kids with his drunken antics!
Watch this space for a full review. We are sure that the second half is as gripping as the first.
