Ratings***
First things first singer turned debutant producer Neha Rajpal in lieu with Akash Rajpal, who has also penned the story with Omkar Mangesh Dutt, deserves a well-deserved pat on their back for coming up with a breezy entertainer like Photocopy which is like a welcome change for the Marathi Cinema audience.
Madhu (Parna Pethe) & Mala (Parna Pethe in a double role) are the two identical twin sisters studying in college. Needless to add that Madhu is a big time prankster while Mala is a typical book worm type girl. In due course Mala meets Sameer (Chetan Chitnis) in a quiz competition and slowly and steadily they both fall in love and then begins the confusion. As both Mala and Madhu fall in love with Sameer, who till the end due to varied circumstances does not realise that he is actually dating both the sisters and the sisters too do not know that either.
Although Photocopy sounds like a typical Bollywood film, yet it is the directorial treatment of Vijay Maurya and his interesting screenplay that keeps the audience interest alive in the whole proceedings. That apart Maurya’s technical team also deserves due credit. Amongst the actors the film solely belongs to Parna Pethe who has delivered a par excellence act in her dual role. Chetan Chitnis is perfect as the confused lover. Seasoned actors Vandana Gupte & Dr. Girish Oak are hilarious. A special mention must also be made of the gang of college friends.
Photocopy is indeed a must watch film at least once.
