    ONE OF THE GREATEST MARATHI MOVIES EVER MADE!!

    The dark comedy film 'VAALVI' is a hilarious, deliciously twisted and thought-provoking masterpiece. The script is razor-sharp and the performances by the cast are top-notch, particularly the lead actors who perfectly capture the nuances of the complex and morally ambiguous characters. The film expertly balances humor and thrill to create a unique and unforgettable viewing experience. It keeps you on edge of the seat throughout. It's not for the faint of heart, but for those willing to take the ride, 'VAALVI' is a must-see film that will have you questioning your own morality long after the credits roll.

    Filmmaking and storytelling is an art and Vaalvi Team has excelled in it.

    Very nicely written, directed, enacted and videographed. A murder mystery that keeps the audience engaged and the moment we lose focus the movie picks the pace again. So at no point in time the audience is losing attention.

    A very simple story is made interesting with a presentation. All jokes that come out of the situations and frustration and all other emotions are subtle and never felt out of the line.

    And to top it off the climax, just when you think what the end could be the unexpected things happen and the audience is stunned and leaves the theatre laughing. I have never seen any movies and the audience laughs at murder scenes.

    Superb!!! Brilliant!!!

    We can't be the judge for this great master peice, just a terrific storyline by the writer, director and all the actors. Marathi movie on a next level... from the beginning to the end the story narration was just thriller!!!

    'jaane bhi do yaaro" "andhadhun" hilarious murder mystery keeps you glued to your seat. But this one made us jump... Hats off!!!

    Marathi is not everyone language, but subtitles helped to understand. Even the bollywood audience should watch this movie!!!

    After Kantara, my second top list is "Vaalvi". Thank you for bringing such a good movie to the now a days cinema lovers!!!!

    Brilliance all the way

    Couldn't believe I was wholeheartedly laughing on such serious situations..!

    Top class cinema!! Considering the kind of topic movie handles, the director did a commendable job to keep the screenplay top-notch. Not a single moment feels cheap.

    Excellent acting by all the star cast. Their expressions speak volumes. Their acting elaborates the scenes thousand times better than dialogues.

    Proud of Marathi cinema! Go and watch in theatres. Much much better than cheap Bollywood masala movies.

    Thanks to Paresh Mokashi and Zee studios for bringing such a masterpiece and taking Marathi movies to next level!

    Termites hold the key.

    I've watched hundreds of Thrillers, handful number of Thrilcoms and I've always wished that such movies should be made in Marathi too. Thankfully my wish has come true and we have got a movie that shouldn't be missed. This is an original movie that keeps you on the edge of your seat and makes you laugh hard at the subtle dark comedy in it. Funny thing is you even wonder how can I be laughing at such situations but you can't help.

    The length of Valvi is just 1 hour 46 minutes, with no songs, no futile romance and no nonsense. It's fast paced. The script is tight and engaging. The dialogues are witty and on point. Direction is smart. I am a big fan of Paresh Mokashi and I've loved his work since I watched his play 'Mukkampost Bombilwadi' which happens to be my most favourite. He has good experience with comedy but I was surprised to see his hand at Thrillers. I don't like to compare as such, but I can call him Marathi industry's Shriram Raghavan.

    As far as acting is concerned I think all actors have done their job superbly. I'm not a big fan of Swwapnil Joshi, but I loved his acting in this movie. He should actually be utilised for such unconventional roles. Shivani Surve has done a great job too. So has Subodh and Anita Date.

    Overall this is one Marathi movie that you should not miss. Especially the people who love Thrillers.

    Won't say anything about the title of my review. One should watch the movie to get it.
