Swargandharv Sudhir Phadke

Recently watched the movie "Swargandharva Sudhir Phadke". I have read Sudhir Phadake's autobiography - "Jagachya Pathivar" -two or three times. It is quite challenging to make a biopic and even more challenging to make it on a popular person like Sudhir Phadke. But the perfect selection of all the actors, their acting, and the technical aspects of the film are all excellent! Babuji's songs in his own voice have been used very well as background music at appropriate places.

A must-watch movie for every Maharashtrian in the movie theatre!

Heartfelt thanks and congratulations to the film's producers, directors, actors, and technicians! Well done!

The movie involves too many flashbacks so it doesn't seem like a smooth narration.

The story moves too fast in some places. For example, it is not clear why the young protagonist faces financial hardships though he is the son of a well-to-do professional. At another place, the protagonist is charged with stealing bread but this very short episode is left unresolved.

Mr. Sudhir Phadke was involved in the creation of many extremely popular Marathi songs, but very few are touched upon in this movie. This is a big shortcoming of the movie. His involvement in the India Heritage Foundation could have been shown in detail.

Apart from being seemingly jerky and incomplete, this biographical movie is entertaining to watch. All the actors have done their job well. The filmmakers have taken a lot of effort to recreate the scenes of the period.

Yogesh Deshpande's direction combines music and drama in such a impactful way that it left me stunned. As visually stunning and beautifully scored as it is truly captivating. Swargandharva Sudhir Phadke's biography is worthwhile, sending out a poignant message about following one's dreams.

Yogesh's film is well-crafted enough to also work as a drama which highlights an artist's real life struggle.

Movie in itself is a compelling character-driven story that invites viewers inside the life struggling story of Sudhir Phadke and provides them with a timeless story throughout. Its message about obsession and music is worship is poignant and will remain relevant throughout.

Outstanding groundwork by director..Mesmerizing Music that has lasted for generation..A big thank you to the creators for using original voices in music..All time Classic songs are woven so beautifully along the flow of the story that in some cases they fit even better than their original films.

The film beautifully shows the human nature and conflits between legendary artists without hurting anyone's feelings.

Editing as been perfectly done. You dont feel even a single scene could have been excluded.

There isnt a single audience in marathi world who has not heard or murmured these time songs.

An absolutely must watch film.
