It SEEMS era of meaning full cinema is back. Vasanth Rokade (P) Ltd.Satara is set to become a trend setter to Big names like Rajshree and even Yash Chopra Might rethink its policy after debacle of Tashan.Speed with which Vasanth Da releases films might amaze veteran like Mahesh Bhatt. Enough Ga Ga for Vasanth Rokade and His latest release is Not a Mater piece like Devadasi but a Romantic Light Hearted Soul Touching Comedy Titled Comedy Clinic!It is a story of a reserved category quota type middle aged doctor who takes pride in having date with Upper caste Girls. Vasanth here shows how difficult it is for a reserved category professional to study in college where he was discriminated by teachers, co-workers and even nurses! Vasanth shows an example where ramesh Lallu Bhnage after night duties goes to canteen to have a cup of coffee but canteen man won’t serve him till coffee pot was nearly empty so that others don’t have to use his partly used coffee pot. There are numerous examples where Ramesh Lallu Bhnage get humiliated, hurt and abused by professors and would find difficult even to find a date with cleaners! His Dream Date with Medha Rokade filmed at Saris Baugh is a Visual Treat to watch. Medha appears stunning as usual in this guest number .In fact her baby bump add to her beauty for sure!

His Dream Date with Medha Rokade filmed at Saris Baugh is a Visual Treat to watch. Medha appears in this guest number only.This kind of attitude of the society in general led Ramesh Lallu to believe that Reservation is NOT a right solution for backwardness. His dream sequence with Mr Ambedkar where Ramesh Lallu call him uncle and argues why did he choose reservation in common colleges rather than creating separate college for quota doctors? This shows how a common quota student?s feel about reservation.Mammuthy appears here in Guest Role for Ambedkar but Ramesh Lallu makes screen dazzles when he faces Maundy. This will be highlight of movie and would remind Amitabh-Delllepkumar encounter Shakhty. Ramesh Lallu Bhnage is revelations and should easily claim an award or two. His resembles to Great Rajnders Nath also helps him in this role. His antics, Body Language and Dialogue delivery is top notching. In fact his figure, his potbelly and his costumes are very well designed for this role. His half broken Hinglish reflects very well his background. Set Designer Dittal Groups had done hard work to built set for comedy clinic at bajerao road, Pune and Bhim Nagar.

Other credits are worth mentioning. Kalpana Bhange plays role of flat chest Munniben as secretary to Ramesh Lallu and her (Shall we say his!) Hoolika dance number filmed at live Singgarh Road is bound to be hit. Camera man Ashok Rokade had captured Anarth Hospitals and Comedy clinic words very rightly and used in the backgrounds. Vamp Vidya plays here by Veteran Bindu and is good compensation for viewers compared to flat chested Munniben and exploited by camera man ashok Rokade just like Ramesh Lallu! Background by Kirti Rokade is Ok and tune of ?Jai Bhims-Get Rid of Your Genes? is used appropriately by Vasanth Rokade. Child star Yash Bhnage had little to do but when he watches Ramesh Lallu kissing Vamp Vidya, His short Dream songs will be a hit for sure.Climax is full of Laughter and comedy of errors reaches to its peak. Ramesh Lallu hardly speaks but his facial expression and more of body language does convey most of laughter. Dialogues are short but sweet and lead to spontaneous humour. Though Not a master piece, But worth watching this weekend with family. Viewers don?t miss Mammoths in climax!
