Such films are needed in this time to serve as an
inspiration for the younger generation and rid the society of corruption by
showing them the great examples of honesty, hard work and perseverance. The
film stands strong in terms of content that has been kept original to great
extent without any fictionalization. Born in a small village of Makhegaon in
Latur district, Dr. Tatya Lahane belonged to a poor family. As a child, Tatya
saw the sufferings of his family and that instilled in him fire to study and
work hard. He became a doctor and earned a good name in society for himself and
his family. All the financial sufferings of his family vanished and he got
married happily. But life is not a bed
of roses and Dr. Tatya, who worked hard selflessly to treat maximum number of
people suffered kidney failure and life went for a toss. But his mother gave
him rebirth by offering one kidney to him. Dr. Tatya got inspired to serve poor
people by reaching them rather than waiting for the poor patients to come to
him. As an ophthalmologist he did lakhs of cataract surgeries and so bring
happiness in their lives.
The director has done
a great job by treating the subject as a biopic in real sense without putting
fake elements or characters to add zing to it. Even the names of the characters
have been kept real. The biggest support for Dr. Tatya came from Dr. Ragini
Parekh who shunned her private medical practice for his good work and even lend
support to him in treating the people without any regards for money. The film
hails family values and unity. In one scene, the family values and love are
seen at the peak when many family members argue with each other as they want to
donate their own kidney to Dr. Tatya. The menace of corruption has been dealt
in a smart way in the film and a lesson is given that corruption should be
avoided at any cost and service of mankind should be done.
Actor Makrand Anaspure has beautifully played the adult role
of Dr. Tatya Lahane and has done justice to the living legend Dr. Tatya Lahane.
In the role of Dr. Tatya who works for 18-20 hours while maintaining a smile on
the face, Makrand Anaspure has done justice. Even his witty one liners at times
are a fun. There are some inspirational songs with meaningful words that hail
honesty and goodness. Somehow the film is a take on the sufferings of the poor
people who have less facilities and less chances to progress but the only thing
that can make them progress is the education and perseverance. The journey of
Dr. Tatya from a poor intelligent boy to
an eye surgeon is full of ups and downs. He didn't shy to earn while studying
and did petty jobs.
The film is sure to grab the hearts of people especially
children as it teaches that hard work and education can make a person
successful beyond the expectations. In between there are over emotional moments
that seem exaggerated but the story keeps going and avoids boredom. Current
time doctors need to learn from Dr. Tatya Lahane and give up their lust for
money. One can earn money as a doctor but the respect one earns by social
service like Dr. Tatya Lahane is outcome of hard work and honesty and these
things can't be earned. Padamshree Dr. Tatya is still working for the
betterment of people by treating them free and holding camps for eye treatment.
Even this film's makers have decided to invest the profits of the film in
setting up of two charity hospitals, one in Aurangabad and one in Mumbai.
