Pravin Tarde’s devotional drama explores faith, atheism and farmers’ struggles through Tukaram and Sangita’s emotional journey. Powered by strong performances from Snehal Tarde and Mohan Joshi, the film raises sharp questions on blind belief before leaning heavily into Swami Samarth devotion. While the first half keeps viewers engaged, the predictable and stretched second half makes this a film that will mainly appeal to devotees.Read at source
Deool Band 2
The film revolves around Sangeeta Paygude, a farmer woman struggling with grief and hardship. The story begins near a riverside cremation ground, where a devastated Sangeeta emotionally calls out to God, pleading for divine intervention in her troubled life. In a moment of anger and despair, she throws a stone at an anthill shrine, after which she experiences a vision of Shri Swami Samarth. The film further follows, Tukaram, a farmer and devoted follower of Swami Samarth, lives in a drought-stricken village where farmers struggle with debt, crop failures, and the consequences of adulterated seeds and fertilisers. Believing that divine intervention will help resolve the crisis, Tukaram leads protests against those responsible for exploiting farmers. However, when his efforts fail to bring change and the villagers continue to suffer, he becomes disillusioned. In a symbolic act of protest against both society and fate, Tukaram locks the village temple dedicated to Swami Samarth and questions the value of faith in the face of relentless hardship. Tukaram's wife, Sangita, is practical, outspoken, and openly sceptical of religious beliefs. Swami Samarth begins accompanying Sangeeta on her journey back to her village along with her brother-in-law and Rafiq. As financial pressures increase and hope diminishes, tragedy strikes when Tukaram dies, leaving his family and the village devastated.
