PlotBased on a story by Usha Datar, Kaksparsh, set in the pre-independence era in Konkan, Maharashtra, revolves around Haridada (Sachin Khedekar), who is the head of the Damle family. Haridada gets his younger brother Mahadev (Abhijit Kelkar) married to the adolescent Durga, who is later named Uma (Ketaki Mategaonkar). However, the happiness of the Damle family is short-lived as Mahadev passes away due to illness on the night his marriage was to be solemnized.
Review: It is believed that love is the greatest feeling on earth. And what goes hand-in-hand with love is loyalty. It is this loyalty that compels you to sacrifice everything, including your life, for the one you love. Director Mahesh Vaman Manjrekar presents this fact in his latest offering Kaksparsh, a film that leaves an impact long time after you leave the cinema hall. But one has to mention that the film caters more to the lovers of serious, hard-hitting cinema.
The idea of narrating the tale in the form of a flashback in the second half works very well for it makes the audience curious in knowing the final outcome. The pace does drop in the latter part of the second half. This is where the patience of the entertainment-hungry audience will be tested.
5 on 5. Great movie. A little awkward to watch with parents while a group of boys are making unrefined comments in the theater during the intimate scenes. But not very uncomfortable. Loved the konkan-pre independence setup. Kudos to one and all from the team. Trust me, after coming out from the theater whenever i saw a crow, all i could remember was KAKSPARSH ?
kalach kaksparsh baghitla. end la jevha haridada umacha hath dhartat ani mahadevacha vachan modtat, tevha mala ekdum hundakach ala. purna film madhe te 3 shots ekdum hrudaysparshi ahet- uma chorun aikat aste, uma vihirivar astana ticha nande sobatcha sanvad ani last.
I saw this film on TV last night, it kept me awake the whole night. A sensitive subject so beautifully handled, made me think about the years gone by and the suffering of the people. What was worse was that all this suffering was due to societal pressures and not biological at all. That we allowed people to suffer thus is a shame. I am glad that we have come out of most of these problems.
Kudos to the producer/director and the actors for giving us this beautiful film. If any film deserves the highest national award, it is this film.
Kaksparsh , an upcoming marathi film which releases on 4th may is a period drama set in 1930-1950s Konkan Maharashtra. The music naturally has been composed by keeping the period in mind. But what amazed me about the OST is that 4 out of 5 songs in the album have been sung without any instruments playing in the background. It is only the soulful and magical voice of Vibhawari Apte-Joshi that we hear. There is something about her voice that oozes bliss. It calms you down. I am presently preparing hard for an important exam and needless to say I feel stressed by the end of the day. But as soon as I listen to these brilliant tracks all the stress vanishes. All the songs from the album can be heard here. The soothing vocals of this highly reputed classical singer of the Jaipur Gharana are probably have the most impact in the first track Ugavala Narayana. Her voice and the words describing the atmosphere of a beautiful dawn instantly brighten up your frame of mind.
In these times of rampant voice modulation to have such songs is indeed a bold decision and the composer Rahul Ranade and director Mahesh Manjrekar deserve special appreciation for it.
