Katyar Kaljat Ghusali

Great work by TRISTAR Sachin,Subodh,Shankar. One of the best musical drama movie of the decade. This is an example of how great Indian classical music and marathi natya sangit is. As far as acting is concerned everyone played their part very beautifully especially Shankar Mahadevan who made his acting debut with this film was a treat to watch. Subodh Bhave a versatile actor who made his directorial debut with this masterpiece. Impeccable performances by everyone. True performer of this movie are singers, composers and lyricist they really pulled it off. Awesome songs sung by awesome singers. Arshad Muhammad, Divya Kumar, Arijit Singh, Shankar Mahadevan Rahul Deshpande, Mahesh Kale what a beautiful voice they have. This makes me say that ''hi katyar kaljat ghusli''.

Let me begin by saying that I don't have ear for the classical music. My father had seen the original musical play and we decided to watch the movie. And what a treat it was !! Starting from the first song "Sur Niragas" you are in awe of the past era and the might of music. I was in tears at Shankar Mahadevan's "Ghei Chhand Makarand". And it's not just Shankar, the other two leads Rahul Deshpande and Mahesh Kale (Yes, they are the leads even if they are not the faces you see on screen) are a treat to hear as well. The filmmakers have done well with the old classics and adding new compositions as well which don't look out of place. I could rave on and on about the music, but I would just suggest to experience this quality of music. The beauty of movie is that while the music is great, it does not fail in other aspects. The storyline is tight and moving well in both halves. Background score added to the impact. And the actors have well with their parts. No hamming. Especially Subodh and Sachin are so excellent that you won't feel that they are not the actual singers. Overall, I wont say "watch" the movie, I'd recommend, "experience" it !!

This film got a standing ovation where I watched it. This is for the first time I witnessed standing ovation. Usually the producers demand some degree of commercial elements in the film to make it commercially successful. This film preserves the authenticity of the story, without compromising on any of it's aspect. This is top class production values. I am absolutely sure this film will get standing ovation in various international screenings.

The film is based on a play of same name & film makers have done well to preserve the authenticity of script & music. The heart of the film is classical music, which is very well choreographed. The climax of the film is amazing & literally gave me goose-bump.

'Katyar Kaljat Ghusali' is the best Marathi Movie of 2015.I Watched it on the First day with my family,it blew my mind.And the subtitles helped a lot to understand the meaning of lyrics. Best screenplay so far and impeccable performances.Storyline was good, the 'katyar' wasgood too.No one can imagine Sachin sir in a negative role but he gave a very powerful performance.Music was really good,every song in the movie was impeccably & perfectly written.Since I haven't seen the'play'(natak), I enjoyed watching the film. Shankar Ehsaan Loy and Jitendra Abhishek's soulful notes will echo in your ears and give you a happy hangover. Subodh Bahave who enthralled everyone with great movies like 'Balgandharva' & 'Lokmanya Balgandharva Tilak' is back with this Movie.Its a masterpiece and was not easy to remake, but Subodh did a fantastic job. Katyar means 'a dagger through the heart'. There is Indian classical music and Marathi Natya Sangeet.The Everything was Perfect .. (Hope that there'll be more similar movies like Katyar)

Katyar Kaljat Ghusli has its crux in its music. The music of the movie is the star of the movie. Hats off to the whole cast and crew of the movie who worked for three and a half years to carve out this masterpiece. I would specially mention Shankar Mahadevan, Rahul Deshpande and Mahesh Kale for their mesmerizing voice with songs like Sur Niragas Ho, Ghei Chhand Makarand, Dil Ki Tapish & many more. Shivam Mahadevan is like the icing on the cake with the very beautiful song Mann Mandira Tejane. Sachin Pilgaonkar, Subodh Bhave, Shankar Mahadevan, Amruta Khanvilkar, Mrunmayee Deshpande, Pushkar Shrotri & Sakshi Tanvar have given justice to their respective role. A must watch film for all those who love music.
