Critical reception

[edit]

Maharashtra Shahir movie received positive reviews from critics. Kalpeshraj Kubal of Maharashtra Times gave the film 3.5 stars out of 5 and wrote "Ajay-Atul's music and the voices of Ajay and all the other playback singers have made the cinematic Madhumas blossom. But, some of the 'tunes' in the background song remind us of Ajay-Atul's old works (music). The rest of Shahir's songs and bharoods are easily brought into the film by the screenwriter, director and music director".[19] Vinod Ghatge of ABP Majha gave 3 stars out of 5 and says "Of course, although there are some technical things, this movie will definitely give you a great experience as an audience. Kedar Shinde and his team have worked hard to create this work of art, a must see to salute that Maharashtra Shahir, to bow down to her contribution".[20] Devendra Jadhav of Sakal wrote "Ajay Atul's music is beautiful. Songs in movies carry the story forward. The movie picks up after the interval. Many old popular songs of Shaheer can be heard and can be seen. The events of Shahir's popular play can be seen on the screen. Khanderaya of Jejuri, one can learn the story behind how Lokdhara of Maharashtra was created".[21] Akhilesh Nerlekar of Loksatta said "This movie is definitely a must see. Although it is a biopic, Kedar Shinde has presented a masterpiece without any compromise in terms of story, screenplay, everyone in Maharashtra must watch the movie at least once".[22]
