Let me begin by saying that I don't have ear for the classical music. My father had seen the original musical play and we decided to watch the movie. And what a treat it was !! Starting from the first song "Sur Niragas" you are in awe of the past era and the might of music. I was in tears at Shankar Mahadevan's "Ghei Chhand Makarand". And it's not just Shankar, the other two leads Rahul Deshpande and Mahesh Kale (Yes, they are the leads even if they are not the faces you see on screen) are a treat to hear as well. The filmmakers have done well with the old classics and adding new compositions as well which don't look out of place. I could rave on and on about the music, but I would just suggest to experience this quality of music. The beauty of movie is that while the music is great, it does not fail in other aspects. The storyline is tight and moving well in both halves. Background score added to the impact. And the actors have well with their parts. No hamming. Especially Subodh and Sachin are so excellent that you won't feel that they are not the actual singers. Overall, I wont say "watch" the movie, I'd recommend, "experience" it !!
