The review title sums up the movie. What if forrest gump was an Indian movie? What events would the protagonist witness and trigger? And if the movie was directed not by spielberg but by wes Anderson and you'll get aatmapamphlet
Good fun movie with lot of dark undersides and jokes. Subtle example of dark humor? Lower caste boy is helping his Brahmin friend with a thorn in the shoe. Both fall down but the Brahmin boy is still interested in the the thorn in his shoe. So many layers in that and a lot of other scenes.
The movie is made such that even of you don't get the dark humor yum still love the movie. True adaption of Forrest Gump.

I wish films like 'Aatmapamphlet' got made more. But I guess the dearth of such films are also what makes it special and helps stand out.
A coming-of-age Marathi feature supported by terrific casting and their performances, the writing, the film making, cinematography, editing, production design... (I could go on).
There are more reasons to give @ashishbende's film a chance at the theatres than I can count.
If you're looking for a wholesome story and are keen on taking a trip down memory Lane, this is for you.
For the sake of supporting good cinema, please give it a chance at the theatres.
It requires a theatrical experience.

Aatmapamphlet is a masterfully crafted film that explores the complexities of childhood blossoming amidst communal tensions, and it does so with incredible sensitivity and depth. Directed by Ashish Avinash Bende, the film shines primarily due to the stellar writing by Paresh Mokashi, a celebrated filmmaker known for his insightful narratives. Mokashi expertly navigates the delicate balance between innocence and intelligence in his young characters, depicting them as both wise beyond their years and deeply compassionate. The film follows their journey of choosing love over hate, a theme that is as timeless as it is relevant.
One of the key strengths of Aatmapamphlet is how it taps into the socio-political landscape of the late 70s to 90s, reflecting the era's communal tensions while simultaneously portraying the protagonist's innocent perspective on these events. This semi-autobiographical account resonates deeply with anyone who grew up in that time, and the use of narration by Mokashi adds a light-hearted yet introspective touch, preventing the film from becoming preachy while still imparting its important message.
Om Bendkhale, as the young Ashish, delivers a performance filled with innocence and authenticity, capturing the heart of the film. His ensemble of friends adds to the charm, with each character contributing a unique perspective to the journey. The supporting cast, including Ashish's family and teachers, adds multiple layers to the narrative, with Rohan Mapuskar's casting choices being spot-on. It's also a pleasant surprise to see Deepak Shirke back on screen, delivering a performance that complements the overall tone of the film.
Visually, the film is a treat, with Satyajeet Shobha Shriram's cinematography bringing the setting to life in a way that feels both nostalgic and grounded. The editing, production, and art design, led by Baban Adagale, further elevate the film, ensuring it is a well-rounded cinematic experience.
While the film excels in most areas, the climax, though open to interpretation, feels a bit rushed. The narrative could have benefitted from a bit more time in this final moment, offering additional insight into the protagonist's journey and the reasoning behind certain events. That being said, Aatmapamphlet is a poignant film that remains relevant in today's world, shining a light on everyday discrimination that many have become numb to, while ultimately delivering the powerful message that love triumphs over hatred.
Co-produced by Aanand L. Rai, the film carries subtle echoes of his Raanjhanaa, particularly in its exploration of complex relationships and the emotional weight of social divides. Aatmapamphlet has already garnered global recognition, including praise at this year's Berlinale, and it is a film that deserves to be seen. Don't miss this exceptional, thought-provoking piece of cinema.

Aatmapamphlet (2023) :
Movie Review -
Ashish Bende has his stamp all over Aatmapamphlet. The protagonist is named after him, and that's the only realistic thing about the film. Aatmapamphlet carries a humour that has all chances to go bouncer over the heads of Marathi audiences. This kind of peculiar humour hasn't been attempted in Marathi cinema, or, for that matter, in Indian cinema. The best I can remember is Italian cinema and British capers, and the most universally known example is Amelie (2001) in French cinema. Aatmapamphlet is one step ahead because it has out-of-the-world theories and is very poignant about lifestyle and social commentary. There's nothing so cinematically attractive in the film, and that's why you relate to it very quickly. Numerically, you'll have about 45-50 laughs in 90 minutes. Believe me, this average is too high for any comedy you remember from recent times.
Aatmapamphlet is a narration of the biopic of our hero, Ashish Bende (Om Bendkhale). He is not a famous person; his story can't be called a biographical, autobiography, or anything of that sort, so he gives it a new, unique name, "Aatmapamphlet". The film is about his childhood as he falls in love at first "hand'' with his girlfriend, Srishti (Pranjalii Shrikan). Ashish gets support from his friend Borya and his classmates to approach Srishti and set things up. The film is all about their conversions, how they look at society and its norms, social events, and the nation's current affairs, including every big thing that happened in our country. Then there is a climax, about which I'll speak later.
Aatmapamphlet has a weird title, and somewhere it helps you understand what kind of sky-level humour it is going to serve you. I am not exaggerating, but this is the only adjective I could have thought of: "Aatmapamphlet has a God-level humour!" That's it. That's the headline. I have been through thousands of films and many Marathi movies, but I haven't been able to relate to such humour in a children-oriented film like this. Even Woody Allen needed sexual comments and female sex appeal to explore his weird comedies. The last memories are almost a decade old now with Balak Palak, Timepass, and Killa. Aatmapamphlet overtakes them because it is damn intelligent and intellectual. Like the protagonist says, "It's getting symbolic". I say it's metaphorical too. There are dozens of moments where I was like, "Waah.. wahh.. kadakk.." I don't remember when the last time I had so much laughter was, and that also put my brain to work. Paresh Mokashi is a humorous version of Satyajit Ray. That's not an exaggeration or a paid statement; that's the truth. Ray made many intense and dark films, but with Hirak Deshe, he went wild and crazy, and Mokashi's thoughts always take me back to those days. We may or may not get a creative force like him again who can generate a product that's massy, classy, and ahead of time. So better value him right now. I don't need to explain his previous works here because you are all aware of them. He is just getting better with different genres. Aatmapamphlet is the craziest comedy with the uttermost sensible context ever written in Marathi cinema, while most of the great comedies are illogical and brainless. Hail Mokashi and Bende for that.
Manas Tondwalkar and Om Bendkhale play Aashish Bende with the most honesty, and it couldn't have gotten better than them. The older version has a limited time frame, but that's okay. Shrishti, played by Khushi Hajare and Pranjali Shrikant, is mostly silent but extremely gorgeous. That's natural beauty, marriage material, a pure girl, or whatever you want to term it. Chetan Wagh as Borya is hilarious, as Bhimrao Mude, Ketaki Saraf, and others add good support.
Satyajeet Shobha Shriram's cinematography is fine, the editing is super edgy, and the production value is top-class considering the budget. Aatmapamphlet has everything to make you crazy: go clapping, go wild, go hysterical, and scream. It lacks only one thing, and that's a good "climax". In 90 minutes, we have 85 minutes built so high that those 5 minutes in climax and pre-climax of boring and soapy 'happy ending'. Remove those 10 minutes, and this would have been a modern classic for ages. It just missed it due to the regular climax, which isn't suitable for an irregularly classy film like this. Ashish Bende should be proud of himself for getting things done the way he wanted. Of course, you need a genius like Mokashi close to you, but how about creating another genius? If he can continue in the same vein with his next film, then Bende could be the next big thing for me. I should call him the "Woody Allen" of Marathi cinema. As a whole, Aatmapamphlet is a brainstorming comedy that you have been dreaming of being made in Marathi cinema. Go and enjoy, and make sure you go with your gang and create a hysteria inside the cinema hall.
