Navra Maza Navsacha 2

Movie Review: Navra majha navsacha 2 screening in cinema halls near you!!

A sequel to the 2005 film with the same name , this Sachin Pilgaonkar, Ashok Saraf film had raised high expectations . Here's my review....

A major difference in the film is that , it is a train journey as opposed to the bus journey in the original.

This time around Vacky's ( Sachin) son-in-law, Lamby(Swapnil Joshi ), supposedly an atheist is convinced by his fiancee Shraddha ( Hemal Ingale) to fulfil a " Nagda Navas " , toh suddha chaar chaughat.. ( xlation .. stand nude before bappa at the ganpatipule temple in full view of public 😁😁) .. Konitari bappana wachva re 😁😱 .... And how will Lamby pull of this seemingly impossible feat!!

They undertake a train journey this time to Ganpatipule and as usual it has quirky characters like Vaibhav Mangle , Siddharth Jadhav and Ashok Saraf as the TTE this time. There is also a twist in the tale which isn't hard to guess .

The first half is pure fun with great on screen chemistry between Swapnil Joshi, Sachin and Supriya Pilgaonkar. Grt stuff that raises ur expectations big time .

However the train journey which was supposed to be the main part of the film begins only in the second half. Ashok Saraf looks tired and his role isn't half as good as it was in the original. Many of the jokes are cliched and outright buffoonery which fail to invoke genuine laughter!! And there is a Chinese guy named " Randy Cha".. marathi main iska matlab jaan lo 😁... Eating fried cockroaches .. come on guys .. what do u want to do .. stir up a war with China !!

Some jokes are decent but pitifully less.

The ending shows an uncomfortable Swapnil Joshi stripping before bappa ... I don't want to body shame anyone .. but the guy looks grossly out of shape (wake up call buddy)😭!!

Some things that will appeal to the marathi audiences are a liberal dose of Ganesh aarati's scattered throughout the film & some tear-jerker moments which r a hallmark of Marathi cinema.

The film may still do well despite the flaws above .. but for me it did not live up to the hype created !! I expected more from Sachin !!

Going with 2.5/5 for this one .. Adios🙂!!

Had watched the original movie, which was fantastic. So watched this movie with high expectations. The original movie was pure entertainment and had enjoyed it a lot.

Needless to say, was quite excited to watch the sequel. However the overacting by Sachin, Supriya and Swapneel has killed the movie. Was shocked to see Nirmiti Savant's talent being wasted in this movie. I have seen some of her movies and she is a good actress.

Only saving grace was Ashok Saraf, the undisputed thespian. However, even he cant stop this movie from going down.

No wonder this movie got released on OTT. Not worth watching..

Watched this on OTT and thanking Ganpati bappa that I didn't waste any money in theatres. How have they spoiled such a classic movie in part-2. No logic in the "navas", over-acting by all characters, lame mis-timed jokes.

Too much non required adult comedy, unnecessary characters, repetitive dialogues, useless songs, forced cameos and no emotional connect. Sorry to say but they have COMPLETELY RUINED THE LEGEND PART 1 WAS by making this kind of sequel. I wonder how they saw the final output & felt it was okay to release this nationwide. & how such terrific and established actors and team didn't realize what a mess they were making while shooting the scenes.

Sachin Pilgaonkar has created a let-down movie which should have been avoided to keep the part-1 as a classic in people's mind.

Its a sequel of first movie. But this movie is average if we compare to first movie and song are really boring. Lead actress was average and i feel Swapnil has to bring some change. He don't have to say all the dialogue as if he is performing in theatre. There should be some realism. Also if he is playing a lead role i feel he should have lost some weight if he knew he will be doing topless scene. Coz it was really not pleasant to see hero like this. Best acting done by sachin sir, supriya mam and ashok sir... love the train sequence it was fun. Even nirmiti ji and vaibhav sir was outstanding.. really love there performance. But u will easily guess who is the villain in the movie. Also ending when lamby start believe in god was also not that convincing enough... that situation could have been better.

The promotions got me hyped, but this movie still fails to deliver. Every department has missed the mark. The star cast is excellent, but the storyline and dialogues are bland and lack flavor. As viewers, we no longer watch movies just for the sake of big names; we need compelling screenplays and sharp dialogues. I'm not here to spread hate-I'm a passionate Marathi movie lover-but it's disappointing to see no real progress, even with such a stellar cast. We want the Marathi industry to dominate across India.

New, bright minds with different mindset are needed for projects like these, especially if remakes are involved. We can't keep relying on big names alone. I hope things improve in the future. Let's make it big.
