Bhai - Vyakti Ki Valli

Bhai 2.. Marathi Movie

Everyone has friends. Everyone has ups and downs in life. But when you are at your low, your friends will take you out of it, without knowing that you are coming out of the situation. PL, Bhimsen, Vasantrao , Hirabai, Manik Verma did the same for Kumar Gandharva. This makes you to cry from inside.

Lepracy, a decease has created a big decease in the minds of those who does not have this decease. He has responded to the great Baba Amte and contributed to his noble cause. Be it Muktangan, be it help for hospitals, PL and Sunitabai were always there.

He never compromised in art! He was very certain about his stand about politics!! He was not controlled by any so called boundaries!!!

All these aspects are shown in very good way. Sagar Deshmukh, Iravati Harshe, Ajay Purkar, Girish Kulkarni and all have performed great

Mahesh Kale, Rahul Deshpande, Jagganath Mewundi have done marvelous job. When they sing , you get involved in their performance! You get to a place where you wanted to be!! Your all senses are at a height of unreachable joyous place!!!

Like Bhai one, Bhai 2 as well must watch movie. Bhai 2 has reached to a new height as compared to Bhai 1.

It is a delight to watch this masterpiece. It has comedy, tragedy, fun sorrow, anger and all the feelings are used in right way. Beauty of the movie is Pu La's life is portrayed not just a ideal person but as ordinary person who did extraordinary things. His career spanned from Pt. Nehru to Bal Thackery.

Some people have severely criticized this movie for being a shallow and not portraying Pu La's life accurately. However, it comes from peoples high expectations rather than shortcomings from the movie. As his life had such a dynamic spectrum that its hard to portray in a movie. The movie is excellent effort and must watch for Pu La's fans. However, there could be some improvements like character of Rao Saheb could have been better developed. He just comes and goes without really making any impact. People who have not read read or listened to story of Rao Saheb would easily miss that part. Also, Pu La as a writer is not portrayed as strongly. His character looks more of a happy go lucky person than a key figure in Marathi literature. His devotion to the music and social cause is portrayed pretty well. The music is one the strong points of he movie. The movie ends with the amazing Mehfil portraying the music maestro Pt. Pandit Bhimsen Joshi, Kumar Gandharva, and Dr. Vasantrao Deshpande in a very casual unplanned gathering. It transfers people to that era and leaves everyone with a goose bumps.

I've knew about PL not too much,but when I watched this movie I felt like I am living it. So enjoying movie for me. One of the masterpiece.

Growing up, a lot of us have read his stories. Some of our elders were fortunate enough to see him in action. Bhai takes a look behind the scenes look at the life of probably the largest persona in the marathi film, theatre and music industry, the late P.L.Deshpande, affectionately called "Pu La", or "Bhai". The story dwells around parts of his childhood, the hardships he faces on his adulthood, and brings several of his stories to life. We see a lot of things as Sunita Thakur, his wife saw them. The movie ends on a high note with one of the most beautiful classical singing "mehfil". For any fan of Pu La, this film is an absolute must watch.

Hats off to acting by all actors.. Specially Sagar Deshmukh in Pu. La. Deshpande's role. Story line is kelp wonderfully interesting without making it typical biography. I also liked role played for Pandit Bhimsen Joshi, his singing style is exactly same. 👌👌 Singers are simply "Masters of classical & normal singing" ...👍👍 Thanks to Mahesh Manjrekar..
