Mahesh
Manjrekar's
much-awaited
Marathi
film,
Panghrun
has
finally
released
on
February
4,
2022
in
theatres.
The
Gauri
Ingawale
and
Arun
Bavdekar-starrer
has
been
creating
a
solid
buzz
amongst
the
masses.
Panghrun
is
inspired
by
a
short
story
written
by
the
renowned
poet
and
author
BB
Borkar.
The
film
is
a
tragic
tale
of
love,
compassion
and
ultimate
sacrifice
to
having
a
shot
at
redemption.
It
is
about
a
woman's
physical
and
emotional
desire
that
she
expects
from
her
husband.
Mahesh
Manjrekar
had
already
said
that
Panghrun
will
be
another
different
unique
love
story
like
Kaksparsh.
Well,
the
Marathi
film
is
receiving
a
positive
response
from
the
critics.
Let's
have
a
look
at
the
critics'
views
about
Panghrun.
Preeti
Atulkar
of
Times
of
India
praised
the
climax
of
the
Mahesh
Manjrekar
directorial.
The
cine
pundit
wrote,
"The
best
is
saved
for
the
last
as
Panghrun
packs
a
punch
with
a
moving
climax.
You
can
definitely
watch
this
one!"
Keyur
Seta
of
Cinestaan
compared
Panghrun
with
Kaksparsh.
He
claimed
that
Kaksparsh
was
better
than
Panghrun.
He
stated,
"This
subtlety,
or
lack
thereof,
also
differentiates
Panghrun
from
Kaksparsh.
But
it
doesn't
stop
the
former
from
being
an
impressive
and
emotional
period
saga." He
praised
newcomer
Gauri
Ingawale's
performance
and
said,
"The
decision
to
avoid
casting
stars
works
well
here.
Ingawale,
in
her
first
role
as
a
grown-up,
starts
off
her
journey
on
a
winning
note.
She
is
top-notch
during
the
dance
sequences
too."
Sameer
Ahire
of
Movie
Talkies
criticized
Panghrun
and
Mahesh
Manjrekar
for
his
scriptwriting.
He
stated,
"Mahesh
Manjrekar
is
to
blame
for
the
writing,
if
not
his
direction.
He
has
written
Panghrun
in
such
outdated
manners
that
you
even
forget
the
periodic
importance
of
the
story.
Halfway
through
and
you
already
know
what's
going
to
happen
and
even
that
how
it's
going
to
happen."
Talking
about
Panghrun,
the
film
also
stars
Rohit
Phalke,
Vidyadhar
Joshi
and
Pravin
Tarde
in
key
roles.
The
film
has
music
composed
by
Hitesh
Modak,
Saleel
Kulkarni,
Pawandeep
Rajan
and
Ajit
Parab.
Cinematography
and
editing
are
handled
