Ultra Media & Entertainment, Usha Kakade Productions, EOD Media, Udaharnath and AVK Pictures’ Punha Ekda Sade Made 3 (Marathi; UA) is the second film in the Sade Made 3 series. It is the story of three bachelor-brothers — Ratan (Ashok Saraf), Madan (Makarand Anaspure) and Chandan (Bharat Jadhav). One day, the spirit of a girl, Kamini (Rinku Rajguru), meets Chandan and seeks his help in tracing her necklace worth Rs. 40 crore. How the three brothers lay their hands on the necklace and return it to Kamini’s parents forms the crux of the drama.
Ankush Chaudhari’s story is below the mark. Sandip Dandawate’s screenplay is fair mainly because of the comedy which is quite entertaining. However, the basic story is so weak that the impact of the drama gets diluted. Sandip Dandawate’s dialogues are appealing.
Ashok Saraf does a fair job as eldest brother Ratan. Makarand Anaspure’s comedy is entertaining. He acts well as Madan. Bharat Jadhav is alright as Chandan. Siddharth Jadhav is okay as Baban. Rinku Rajguru makes a mark as Kamini. Sanket Pathak lends average support as Rohan Mhatre. Samruddhi Kelkar is so-so as Supriya Mhatre. Sanjay Narvekar is alright in a bit role in guest appearance as Baba Khatri. Others are passable.
Ankush Chaudhari’s direction is ordinary. Gaurav Chati and Aditya Bedekar’s music is ordinary. Vikrant Hirnaik’s lyrics are okay. Aditya Bedekar’s background music is fine. Sanjay Jadhav’s camerawork is quite good. Manohar Verma’s action and stunt scenes are functional. Mahesh Laxman Kore’s production designing is okay. Ashish Mhatre’s editing is sharp.
On the whole, Punha Ekda Sade Made 3 has star power as its biggest asset but the content is weak.
Released on 13-2-’26 at Plaza (daily 1 show) and other cinemas of Bombay thru PVR Inox Pictures. Publicity: okay. Opening: poor.
