Sarsenapati Hambirrao

This historical movie is a about a life of Hansaji Mohite who was SARSENAPTI AKA commander for Chhartrapati Shivaji Maharaj and Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj.

Movie is primarily on his life after he becomes a commander till his death. His emotions are well portrayed in the film. Action sequences were choreograph well and at locations and are authentic. Background music for other characters like Gashmeer Mahajani who played double role of Chhartrapati Shivaji Maharaj and Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj were good which did not drop flat.

His family and living were shown with beautiful screens over the time. Film does not have many songs. Yes its a well written movie with few good and other average screenplays. The best thing is its dialogues which are so well written while adding few sanskrit phrases to it.

A political angle added to it for a time which may or may not coincide with history but are surely strengthen the hambirarao's character.

The emotions and his oath towards country and his king is so well shown which hit each and every person in theater.

Other characters played by rest of the cast is done well and directed. Yes its Maharashtra's Mahacinema as its a big budget Marathi movie till date.

Every screen and historical time shown is beautiful and seems real. It puts a patriotic spirit to each one watching rather having a emotional end.

Its a must watch for everyone. Reginal cinema here also is growing.

Even today traces of subversion are visible in most aspects of our society due to systematic destruction of Indianness ! The sense of pride in who we are serves as a confidence booster for next generations to excel in their lives, but we were robbed of it for 2 centuries! The movie and its dialogues take us back to times where we were proud of who we were! That's the greatest gift that came from this movie! Sahyadri cha kada shwas rokuni khada!...(Sahayadri's Fortress waiting holding its breath) movie is full of such wonderful dialogues that leave your blood boiling as well as eyes wet at same time ....beautifully written songs with absolutely class music and Povadas! The detailing is mind boggling! Brilliant acting by everyone and superb narration by Upendra Limaye.

And yes, the movie did not get under the pressure of portraying grand Shivaji, the name itself carries is much weight that it's east to succumb under pressure. Mr. Tarde has kept its heart in right place without forgetting that the movie must entertain. His face exudes innocence and courage at the same time. He lived the part so well. Can't miss to see the pride in his face when he says "we are Shivaji Raje's people " to Bahadur Khan's family. Hambirrao's daughter Tararani is a revered figure in Kolhapur, pleasantly surprised to see his views resonate so well with modern times. A scene where Gashmeer portrays Sambhaji fighting like an explosive warrior, and Hambirrao looks with pride was the scene were it took me to a different world. Must say that Gashmeer did succeed in playing both characters with finesse...balance and wit of father & sheer firepower of son.

With limited resources what Shivaji Raje did is unbelievable, required a mountain of will power, and that's why India map is still on world map. To such warriors even Bahubali like movies could fall short. I always wondered why can't such greatness be portrayed with cinematic liberty to make it a surreal experience. I must say this movie went emotionally quite close to those days and those great people....must watch movie.... something that does justice to Greatness of Maratha Warriors ... Great gift to us Mr. Pravin Tarde, hats off!

We believe in History, But History made by Our king Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj and Chatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj.
