Bollywood greatly misses the context and time their stories are set when writing dialogues, good that this Marathi movie does not make that error. Dialogues are great (at least in the first half) with regards to the era and how they add life to scenes unlike biopics from Bollywood where dialogues are sometimes written so as to suit the current climate and not for the story in question. You won’t see any out of place person in clothes that seem off from the time where this story is from. Filmmakers have taken utmost care in designing the sets and costumes. Then the way camera moves from one frame to another, this is at times a movement from one room to another, one part of the frame to another in the 1880s. You feel like to take your camera out and click as the film rolls (I didn’t!). When you are watching this movie in the hall on the big screen, you will know what I mean when I tell you how each frame in the first half is shot with such brilliance that appears like you are shown some great photographs one after the other. Time flew and I mostly forgot about her until last night when I saw the trailer. But again, except for a few lines that she was the first women doctor of India, I did not know much of her. The face, sari, that attitude, simplistic yet confident. Long time back I had read about her somewhere along with an old photograph of her which I vividly remember. The trailer was good of course but it was the real person on whom this movie is based. I had seen Anandi Gopal’s listing before but never saw anything beyond its poster on Bookmyshow but last night for reasons I cannot think of I played its trailer and immediately I wanted to watch the movie. Other two being Sairat and Natasamrat, both of which were fine movies in their own ways. This was, in fact, my third Marathi movie in the hall.

What if you were also presented with humour along with all this? Wouldn’t that be a rare piece? Anandi Gopal does it and how beautifully does it touch you.
