What sets him apart is his simplicity, his down to earth nature, and his welcoming smile. However now he is no more referred to as ‘Maaza Chakula’ but as ‘Rahul Narvekar’. The cute star kid, having played the lead in his home production years ago was his recognition some years ago however ‘ Adinath Kothare’ is the new pin up boy for the teenage girls. With his stubbled look and unkempt hair, Adi is sure to make waves with the female following. Not that he hasn’t already, but by entering Bollywood, the exposure to fan following has multiplied. The young lad has set up his identity with his very first hindi film ‘Stand by’. Adinath Kothare was thus launched in ‘Bollywood’ on 26th August 2011.
Following a world wide release Adinath has now reached out to millions of people world wide. Not to mention his former fan following which is growing day by day, Adi is now a known name in houses world wide. Adinath looks at ease in front of the camera and has given an effortless performance. The actor supersedes all new comers and seems fit for Bollywood with his intense and impeccable acting prowess not to mention his good looks. Adi has proved his acting skills in his very first Hindi movie and has made a mark as an intense actor. The scene with our super talented Sachin Khedekar who played his father in the film is enacted with extreme ease by Adi who doesn’t look like an awkward new comer at all. Adi has done fair justice to all his scenes throughout the movie by emoting intense scenes effortlessly and has made his individual presence felt in the movie.
The movie has been given a 3 star rating by critics and with critics
just waiting for a loophole to pounce on any new comer, Adi has so far
surpassed all the criticism and sailed smoothly through his Bollywood gateway.
Here are a few excerpts from critics who have reviewed the film.
"It is Adinath Kothare who catches
you with complete surprise in a challenging role that offers him ample scope to
exhibit his range as an actor. Here's a talent to watch out for!" - Taran
Adarsh; Bollywood Hungama.com (Stand By review)
The journey has only just begun and as it is been
said, ‘Picture abhi baaki hai mere dost !’ We all know Adi has miles to go
before he is recognized as an established actor. With politics having its hold
in every stream of life, it is a tough fight for sure. Wonder if there is a
‘Anna’ somewhere in this filth who would help promote talent not by the virtue
of influence but with due respect to talent and art. Our very own Shreyas
Talpade has proved that although talent is truly recognized, the meaty role is
always given to the one having the cherry on the cake (the influential
people). It is necessary for talented artists to meet the right people at the
right time and that requires something more than talent. It is the luck factor
!
A good director can do wonders with good talent and vice versa. However the fact cannot be ignored that a good successful film is a complete package having a good producer, able director, crisp editor, cinematographer, and a neat screen play, memorable songs and not to mention the dialogues which are meant to be reminisced for decades. By the mere virtue of songs in the movie, some films have shot to success despite of having statues like Bharat Bhushan, Rajendra Kumar and Pradip Kumar as heroes. Well those were the days when songs could carry off a film on its shoulders however now the liability depends on several factors including sheer dumb luck. The recent lucky bloke having his movies run without the need to possess any individual talent is Emraan Hashmi who has been having super hit songs to his credit making him popular over night. The entry into Bollywood for such actors is a cake-walk. However to sustain their place in this industry requires something more besides talent and that is having ‘lady luck’ by their side. A Salman Khan or Rajnikant movie might not make sense or have any kind of logic in the movie however it still appeals to the masses and the due credit may go only to 'lady luck' who favours them.
Popularity grows by recognition and the manner in
which a particular star is introduced in the industry. Although the movie
flops, the star is known in the Hindi film industry and is made popular amongst
public. Reason could vary from one hit song to gossip causing negative
publicity or just belonging to a family having filmy background. Talent as we
all know is abundant in our Marathi industry however besides Shreyas Talpade
not many have reached to sharing the frame with the likes of Shahrukh Khan and
Ajay Devgan and being almost a parallel hero. It is indeed an honour to have
such outstanding talent coming form our community and now to join the likes of
Shreyas we have our Adinath Kothare and we wish him all the very best in his
journey towards stardom. However I hope he continues to remain the same old
down to earth Adi we have known for years and may our best wishes and blessings
help him in all his future endevours.
