Navra Maza Navsacha 2

Movie Review: Navra majha navsacha 2 screening in cinema halls near you!!

A sequel to the 2005 film with the same name , this Sachin Pilgaonkar, Ashok Saraf film had raised high expectations . Here's my review....

A major difference in the film is that , it is a train journey as opposed to the bus journey in the original.

This time around Vacky's ( Sachin) son-in-law, Lamby(Swapnil Joshi ), supposedly an atheist is convinced by his fiancee Shraddha ( Hemal Ingale) to fulfil a " Nagda Navas " , toh suddha chaar chaughat.. ( xlation .. stand nude before bappa at the ganpatipule temple in full view of public 😁😁) .. Konitari bappana wachva re 😁😱 .... And how will Lamby pull of this seemingly impossible feat!!

They undertake a train journey this time to Ganpatipule and as usual it has quirky characters like Vaibhav Mangle , Siddharth Jadhav and Ashok Saraf as the TTE this time. There is also a twist in the tale which isn't hard to guess .

The first half is pure fun with great on screen chemistry between Swapnil Joshi, Sachin and Supriya Pilgaonkar. Grt stuff that raises ur expectations big time .

However the train journey which was supposed to be the main part of the film begins only in the second half. Ashok Saraf looks tired and his role isn't half as good as it was in the original. Many of the jokes are cliched and outright buffoonery which fail to invoke genuine laughter!! And there is a Chinese guy named " Randy Cha".. marathi main iska matlab jaan lo 😁... Eating fried cockroaches .. come on guys .. what do u want to do .. stir up a war with China !!

Some jokes are decent but pitifully less.

The ending shows an uncomfortable Swapnil Joshi stripping before bappa ... I don't want to body shame anyone .. but the guy looks grossly out of shape (wake up call buddy)😭!!

Some things that will appeal to the marathi audiences are a liberal dose of Ganesh aarati's scattered throughout the film & some tear-jerker moments which r a hallmark of Marathi cinema.

The film may still do well despite the flaws above .. but for me it did not live up to the hype created !! I expected more from Sachin !!

Going with 2.5/5 for this one .. Adios🙂!!

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.

Watched this on OTT and thanking Ganpati bappa that I didn't waste any money in theatres. How have they spoiled such a classic movie in part-2. No logic in the "navas", over-acting by all characters, lame mis-timed jokes.

Too much non required adult comedy, unnecessary characters, repetitive dialogues, useless songs, forced cameos and no emotional connect. Sorry to say but they have COMPLETELY RUINED THE LEGEND PART 1 WAS by making this kind of sequel. I wonder how they saw the final output & felt it was okay to release this nationwide. & how such terrific and established actors and team didn't realize what a mess they were making while shooting the scenes.

Sachin Pilgaonkar has created a let-down movie which should have been avoided to keep the part-1 as a classic in people's mind.

The movie is definitely worth watching atleast once. A complete family movie giving cozy vibes and also definitely some nostalgia.

The movie is filled with comedy no doubt. The storyline is interesting but also straight and simple. Good characters and actors.

The first half has ample comedy and a wonderful story. Good songs and vibes and all. Even the pace is perfect. The only little con is the pace of the second half. Feels a bit slow and some forced unnecessary stuff and dialogues. But still the climax was interesting and the role of Siddharth Jadhav was wow. Swapnil Joshi and Sachin Pilgaonkar had the most screentime of all and was worth it.

Ultimately brilliant direction and writing is what makes a film good and Sachin left no crumbs.

So highly recommended to all and enjoy the film with your family.

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.
