It is a delight to watch this masterpiece. It has comedy, tragedy, fun sorrow, anger and all the feelings are used in right way. Beauty of the movie is Pu La's life is portrayed not just a ideal person but as ordinary person who did extraordinary things. His career spanned from Pt. Nehru to Bal Thackery.
Some people have severely criticized this movie for being a shallow and not portraying Pu La's life accurately. However, it comes from peoples high expectations rather than shortcomings from the movie. As his life had such a dynamic spectrum that its hard to portray in a movie. The movie is excellent effort and must watch for Pu La's fans.
However, there could be some improvements like character of Rao Saheb could have been better developed. He just comes and goes without really making any impact. People who have not read read or listened to story of Rao Saheb would easily miss that part.
Also, Pu La as a writer is not portrayed as strongly. His character looks more of a happy go lucky person than a key figure in Marathi literature. His devotion to the music and social cause is portrayed pretty well. The music is one the strong points of he movie. The movie ends with the amazing Mehfil portraying the music maestro Pt. Pandit Bhimsen Joshi, Kumar Gandharva, and Dr. Vasantrao Deshpande in a very casual unplanned gathering. It transfers people to that era and leaves everyone with a goose bumps.
