    A captivating journey of a gifted artist!

    Truly a masterpiece paying homage to one of the greatest artists of all time! Rahul Deshpande has done a brilliant job and deserves every ounce of praise. A captivating tale with music woven through every distinct moment. A must watch for music lovers, and for people who still wish to hold on to classical music.

    a peek into marathi society of the 1940~50s

    Brilliant portrayal of the life of Pt Vasantrao Deshpande. I had the fortune of listing to a live performance of his. Was glad to get a peek into the personality that was.

    Marathi society is fast losing the culture and the connect to the stalwart personalities that made up the society. This somehow connects to the past.

    All the performances were good as were the songs. Last song was brilliant. Thank you for making this movie.

    A true musical in every sense...

    A true musical in every sense... The director has done a commendable job of making us experience the journey of Vasant rao Deshpande.

    All actors have done a great job, especially the role of Vasantraos mother played by Anita Date.

    And ofcourse, Rahul Deshpandes voice is mesmerizing as always. A must watch for all music lovers. A good message that the movie conveys.. its never too late to follow your passion...

    A tribute to one of the greatest personalities in Indian classical music

    Another masterpiece after Katyar Kaljat Ghusli, "Mee Vasantrao" movie is based on the real life events of Vasantrao Deshpande - one of the greatest Hindustani Classical Vocalist.

    His grandson - Rahul Deshpande - always dreamt of making a biopic on his late grandfather and his vision finally came true.

    This movie is an epic musical journey of one man, and the various hardships he faces before catching his big break at one point in his life. This journey must be experienced on the big screen.

    Great acting, direction, editing, music (of course!). If you are a fan of Indian Classical music / Natya Sangeet or you just want to see the journey of a great personality, this movie will be a blessing for you.

    Even if the movie is 180 minutes long (yes, you heard it right!) you'll never feel it that way because it is so captivating and increases your curiosity at every moment - "What happens next?"

    The movie has a strong message for all kinds of artists and musicians.
