Navra Maza Navsacha 2

Navra Maza Navsacha 2 (2024) : Brief Review -

Sachin Pilgaonkar brings back the true Maharashtrian family entertainer from the gone days. Sachin Sir has formed many memorable moments of my childhood, and the last good-bye was Navra Maza Navsacha (if not Amhi Satpute). Not an original flick, but some amazing fun, and it has gained a cult following over the years among family audiences. He was lost a bit in the middle, but now he is back. Navra Maza Navsacha 2 has an extremely formulaic screenplay and story and falteres with arrangements of the characters very badly. If Vacky and Bhakti are carrying the same story of Navas forward from the 2004 film, then I don't understand how Ashok Saraf, Nirmiti Sawant, Mangle, Wadkar etc. Can be seen playing different roles. That's bullshiit! No excuses here. Now, coming to positive sides, it's not an out-and-out hilarious ride, but it's funny enough. Funny enough to keep you grinning for 2 hours. I don't remember when this happened to me last time. It's been years-almost a decade, I guess. NMN 2 runs on the formulaic plot of the predecessor only to force nostalgia on you. The cameo roles of Johny Lever and Sonu Nigam will tell you why, but still, it was a guilty "pleasure" watching them on screen. The songs aren't good either, but that's okay. I can't really expect a modern-day music album to be as good as NVM 2004, not this but any film. Those days are gone; let's accept it and move ahead with whatever mediocrity we have in our hands. Thanks to Sachin's wide vision of trying to sum up several Maharashtrian cultures and traditions together on a train journey, with Bappa in the center. Atheism is destroyed for good here. Ashok sir, Sachin sir, Nirmiti Tai, Supriya ma'am, you guys are insane. Evergreen. May Bappa keep you like this forever. Thank you for letting me know that the true Marathi family entertainer is still alive. All it needs is someone who can think like this, kicking intellectual cinema out of his brain. From Mumbai to Pune to Kokan or to Vidarbh, Marathwada, everyone will enjoy it.

RATING - 6/10*

Navra Majha Navsacha 2 falls flat despite a stellar cast, proving that big names can't save a weak storyline. Viewers expected a delightful sequel, but the film delivers a bland, clichéd plot that leans on outdated humor and predictable tropes.

The main storyline-focused on a reluctant religious ritual-is illogical and stretched, with attempts at humor that feel forced and childish. Jokes are repetitive, and many are outright cringeworthy, including a caricatured Chinese character eating cockroaches, which only borders on offensive rather than funny. Ashok Saraf, usually a reliable comic presence, appears visibly tired and underwhelming, his role a shadow of what it was in the original.

The film suffers from poor pacing, with the central train journey beginning only in the second half, leaving the first half as a slow buildup that does little to engage. Swapnil Joshi's performance is disappointing; his theatrical delivery feels overacted, and his physical appearance in a key scene is distracting, detracting from any intended humor or relatability. The lead actress also delivers an uninspired performance, adding nothing memorable to the film.

Religious themes are overemphasized to the point of feeling preachy, which may alienate audiences expecting lighthearted entertainment. Attempts to inject emotion and nostalgia with Ganesh Aarti and sentimental scenes feel more like filler than genuine moments, lacking the depth to make any impact.

In the end, Navra Majha Navsacha 2 is a textbook case of a disappointing sequel, overly reliant on the legacy of the original but offering little in return. For many viewers, it's a waste of time and money, with no real laughs or depth to justify its hype.

You can watch this movie with your family. Full of comedy and full of entertainment.

This is a best marathi comedy movie, I would suggest before watching this movie watch it's part first so you can link with this second part.

Those who are looking for comdey and entertainment go and watch this movie.

First part is really nice but second part is little slow but full of entertainment, you will not regret to watch this movie.

The new faces you can see, but some older faces should also includes that would be better.

Better to go with your family members or loved ones. Really good marathi movie if you are feeling boring at home.

The promotions got me hyped, but this movie still fails to deliver. Every department has missed the mark. The star cast is excellent, but the storyline and dialogues are bland and lack flavor. As viewers, we no longer watch movies just for the sake of big names; we need compelling screenplays and sharp dialogues. I'm not here to spread hate-I'm a passionate Marathi movie lover-but it's disappointing to see no real progress, even with such a stellar cast. We want the Marathi industry to dominate across India.

New, bright minds with different mindset are needed for projects like these, especially if remakes are involved. We can't keep relying on big names alone. I hope things improve in the future. Let's make it big.

Worst movie, do not expect anything from this movie based on the first part. Very bad and illogical story line, songs are pathetic. Repetitive dialogues, too much god god, lead heroine acting wasn't upto the mark. Could have been a very successful movie which such good cast. Disappointed.

Maybe I expected a lot based on the first part. It's proved once again that sequels are mostly disappointing. Hope good Marathi movies are made in future. It has been years since a good Marathi movie. Think only Nagraj Manjule can create the magic once more. Or maybe Sanjay Jadhav. With such movies Marathi movies don't have a future. I would suggest, don't waste your money guys.

I doubt other reviews.
