Solapur Gangwar Movie Review : A story of a gang-war

Story: Based on real events, the film revolves around gangwar in Solapur. Trying to become the don of the city, Rakya gets into a vicious circle of gangwar where destroying his enemies is the only way to survive


Review: Many films have been made on the subject of gang war in Bollywood and Marathi and Solapur Gangwar is nothing different. The movie opens with a narrative of how how Anna (Rajendra Jadhav), a mill worker, becomes the don of the city.
Then, while Anna is preparing for elections, Rakya (Pramod Sarawade) a common man start emerging as a Bhai. Soon, his friends join him and he starts establishing himself as a don.


Inevitably, he gets into fight with Chandya (Maruti Katkar), the younger brother of Anna, and before too long, the gang wars begin. Who beats whom in a struggle for control over the city, forms the remainder of the film.


With a Solapuri dialect, Pramod Sarawade gives his best, but fails to leave a mark on the audience. Rajendra Jadhav and Vikrant Shinde too, deliver good performances, though Vikrant appears to be trying too hard towards the end of the film.


Between all the action, the film also features the sub plot of Rakya's love story with Rohini (Pranali Bhalerao). Known for her role in the film Takatak, Pranali has very less screen time, but her acting still stands out.


Save for the competent cinematography and editing, there is very little in terms of story that Solapur Gangwar has to offer. Watch this one only for the action.
