Movie Review: Morya (Marathi)

Marathi movies have started growing on me over the last few years, and with every movie, I continue to be surprised and impressed at the quality being dished out! Avadhoot Gupte presents the ever-present threat of politics-driven communal tensions and riots against the backdrop of the Ganeshotsav celebrations coming up this week, beautifully building the story from the very true and noble intentions of two rival mandals to put their best Ganapati on show, and how they are manipulated and driven to go for each other's throats, until a "in the system" police officer shows them what really is.

A wonderful cast, excellent screenplay and beautiful performances from every single member make this a must watch movie!
