Manvat Murders

Superb acting direction screenplay.if you are marathi viewer must watch it in original marathi lanaguage. All the actors are superb each and every episode is intresting based on true story. Sad to see that in last criminal were fly off from court as lack of evidence againt main accused which is not shown in the series it missing, those who are keep faith in rituals black magic they have to see this its eye opening series. Just watched now at a time whole series, for marathi viewers must watched in marathi its gives you feel in original, Hope all you will like it and my review will be helpfull for all of you.

What a series this was. Surprisingly the makers didn't hold back on the violence and the gore which was a good thing. The BGM was quite eerie and hauntingly beautiful. In some instances you'll feel the scenes are a little stretched but it's fine given the original screenplay the viewers had the pleasure to watch. The only huge negative aspect of the series was the casting of Ashutosh Gowariker as the CID officer who investigates these murders. Don't get me wrong he is a decent actor. But I don't get the logic of casting a 60 year old man for a middle aged man. Also the makeup done on him was horrible to say the least. The role required an intense aura throughout in which Ashutosh fails miserably. Given the plethora of acting talent in the Marathi cinema, they would've gone for someone who actually fits the role. Sai Tamhankar and Sonali Kulkarni have given their career best performance.

Manvat murders has top notch acting and direction but story is repetitive and predictable. No need of 8 episodes as it can be finish in 3 episodes. Unnecessary story stretch happened in all 8 episodes. Nothing suspense and aweful. Disappointing wrt to story. Ashutosh gowarikar and Makrand Anaspure and few police characters has drive this story. There should be another actress for Sonali's character as she doesn't deliver to the mark. Sai tamhankar character is confused and just a link between murderers and police. Marathi industry has good potential but the storyline wasted the potential in the manvat murders.

"No two murders are ever alike. And that is why every murder investigation needs to be handled differently." The opening sequence was enough to create a spark of excitement and the makers successfully carried forward the same level of excitement throughout the episodes. This is one the best murder investigation series that you will watch. It doesn't have unnecessary commercial elements and forced tail ends sequences. It sticks very true to the seriousness of the issue. Overall a decent murder mystery with a classy making and amazing performance from the lead actors especially Ashutosh Gowariker. Don't miss out this!

Ashutosh Gowariker was a let down ! He doesnt match the part.. but overall the rural setting,70's settings are well done. Direction and screenplay are nicely knit. Only if a able actor was casted instead of gowariker who cud acted naturally and like a marathi actor n not only a constantly hand waving english and uncomfortable marathi speaking performers, series wud hv given a greater effect! Sai sonalee and makarand actually look menacing n awesome.. even supporting cast has acted actually well. Series pace shud have been a bit more faster with better pacing n not lagging behind the thinking of the audience! We actually can think ahead of the series. Still works for me minus gowariker ! He isnt a good actor.
