*MEDAL (GUJARATI) -*
Film depicts how a true teacher should be, it inspires us to see good sides in the student instead of the bad, it explains the importance of medals in life and prayers in school and film also covers some social issues and with all these Medal is truly a wonderful cinema. Another special thing about Medal is that there are many actors in this film and all of them are well-known and of top notch. The lead pair of the film forms with Jayesh More and Kinjal Rajpriya; alongwith Hemang Dave, Akash Zala, Vaishakh Bhai, Chetan Daya, Shaunak Vyas, Prapti Ajwalia, Nisarg Trivedi, Deepen Rawal, Archan Trivedi and Bhai Bhai fame Arvind Vegda in a special role. Names of so many talented actors are enough to provide worth of your money. There are also some children, as school students, in the film and they entertain us well. Film has comedy, emotions, tragedy, actions, sharp dialogues and all these with a great message that gives a worthy lesson to today's children and society.
Coming to the story then, a teacher who can get a job with a high salary anywhere, but to achieve a goal, he chooses to work as a teacher in a small village called 'Timli'. In this village school nothing were going methodical and even students are not that serious behind study. This teacher tries hard to run everything systematically in school and realizes those children are good in sports. Even though everyone is against this teacher, he decides to make the children participate in the state level competition 'Khel Mahakumbha' and resonates to get the school a medal. Now will the children of this village be able to bring medals? What is the importance of medals and hard work in a student's life? And what was the main purpose of teacher behind selecting teaching in this village? To know all these you have to watch Medal.
Jayesh More has played a wonderful role of a teacher. He has assimilated his role and given an excellent performance. Maulik Nayak in the role of Pattawala (Peon) entertains with his unique comedy and dialogue-delivery. Renowned comedy actors like Hemang Dave & Chetan Daiya are seen playing gray-shades negative roles in this film and both of them are powerful. Akash Zala does a remarkable job in his small role of driver; and all the child actors (Bhavya, Arya, Karan, etc.) dazzle & sizzle on screen. Having said that, the film is very good with excellent acting by every actor, great story, strong script plus writing and l commendable dialogues. However, the film might felt a bit slow and long. The sports and competitive sports preparation scenes in the film could have been shot more effectively I felt. Medal for me is a message oriented, nice family film and kids/students will love it very much and they will be inspired and learn from it. I would like to rate this movie as 3.5 / 5 (🌟🌟🌟💫). Definitely enjoyable!!
*What I Liked Most? -* Two parallel tracks of Jayesh More and Vaishakh Bhai, Arvind Vegda's DJ Snake entry & Maulik Nayak's tempting explanation on Totha Party!
*P. S. -* The film was initially made as a Web Series but after seeing the final version makers decided to get it released in theatres.
