Gulkand ..... like it's name, takes time to grow on you. By the end of first hour, you get bored and anxiously wait for the antics of Hasyjatra stars. The love story in the beginning never grows on you, hence there are occasional yawns .... But the moment focus turns Sameer and Esha, well get what we came to see .... laugh riot. The last half an hour is very good ..... Sameer and Esha are delight, nobody can touch Sai in showcasing vulnerability.... her eyes speaks thousand words. Prasad is as usual perfect. But I was amused by Jui Bhagwat.... she is so natural. Looking forward to see her work. Overall nice watch ....

Gulkand (2025) : Movie Review -

Gulkand presents a fresh concept - the clash of exes and current partners (husbands/wives) - with a surprising twist. This theme might remind you of Tu Hi Re (a remake of a Tamil film) or Kedar Shinde's Maza Navra Tujhi Bayko, but here, two former lovers are reunited as in-laws. It's certainly an engaging premise, but the film struggles to do full justice to it in the second half.

Neena Dhavle (Sai Tamhankar) is married to Makarand Dhavle (Samir Chaugule), and their daughter Meenakshi (Jui Bhagwat) is in love with Omkar Mane (Tejas Raut). When Omkar's parents - Girish Mane (Prasad Oak) and Ragini Mane (Esha Dey) - visit the Dhavles for a marriage discussion, Girish unexpectedly comes face-to-face with Neena, his long-lost love. Circumstances had kept them apart in the past, but now they find themselves reliving those memories while their loyal but insecure partners, Ragini and Makarand, begin spying on them. The question is: will this reunion jeopardize their children's future and their own married lives?

The film had solid potential, as it touches upon the complex emotions of loyalty and commitment after years of marriage. Sadly, the trajectory is predictable - much like Tu Hi Re - and the narrative weakens when Ragini and Makarand's antics take center stage. The focus shifts, and what starts as a compelling emotional dilemma becomes a chaotic tangle. Still, there are a few heartfelt moments that resonate. While Gulkand is positioned as a comedy, its tonal shift into soap-opera territory affects the momentum.

Performance-wise, the newcomers outshine the veterans. Esha Dey is a total riot - her madcap character steals the spotlight. Sai Tamhankar plays the loyal housewife well, and her flashback scenes as a younger Neena are passable. Prasad Oak and Samir Chaugule deliver dependable performances, while Jui Bhagwat and Tejas Raut are adequate. The supporting cast also chips in fairly.

The film falls short in music and visual finesse. The cinematography could have been sharper, and the editing lacks the punch to keep you glued - with too many redundant scenes. That said, the production design and locations are pleasant. Sachin Goswami's intent to bring novelty deserves applause, but he doesn't quite push the boundaries. The film becomes a victim of overused tropes from Marathi serials. Its portrayal of emotional infidelity needs more nuance, considering the weight such a subject carries. All said and done, Gulkand is a watchable but middling attempt - a decent one for Marathi audiences amidst an ocean of mediocrity.

RATING - 6/10*

With seasoned actors like Prasad Oak, Sai Tamhankar and Sameer Choughule I had big expectations but it turns out to be a case of what could have been very good story line has been destroyed by excessively foolish comedy.

The character of Raginibai has been scripted and portrayed in totally foolish way. No one can be so foolish. The scenes where Ragini and Makarand go to the pub are absolutely ridiculous and I say that all "comedy" in this movie has been scripted and acted in a ridiculous and childish manner.

This was an absolute disappointment. Never expected it to be so bad... this could have been so much better.
