‘Sutradhar’ (1987) was an off-beat film which was directed by Chandrakant Joshi. The main cast of the film included Smita Patil and Nana Patekar in the lead roles, supported by Girish Karnad, Gajanan Jagirdar, Nilu Phule, Ashalata Wabgaonkar, Madhu Kambikar, Kamalakar Sarang, Shrikant Moghe, Irshad Hashmi, Master Hrishikesh Joshi etc. Sudheer Moghe wrote lyrics and composed the songs for the film. The film was certified by Censor Board on 31/01/1986 and may have been released a year later as the film’s credit title starts with the film being dedicated to the late Smita Patil who passed away on 13/12/1986. As far as I know, this was the only film in which Smita Patil and Nana Patekar acted together in the lead roles.
‘Sutradhar’ (1987) was the only Hindi film which Chandrakant Joshi directed. The same was true for Sudheer Moghe as a music director and the lyricist. Another common thing about these two personalities was that both came to the film industry from unconnected fields. Both were multi-faceted personalities.
Kolhapur based Chandrakant Joshi (1944 – 20/12/2021) was an alumni of Sir J J School of Art, Mumbai. After graduation, he took the job of an art teacher in his hometown, Kolhapur, which he continued for a long time. Later, he joined Shivaji University, Kolhapur as the Head of the Department of Performing Arts for 5-years. From his younger days, Chandrakant Joshi was a film enthusiast which ultimately led him to the Marathi film industry as an art director, actor, director, producer, writer, and costume director. He was also associated with Marathi and Hindi theatres.
Towards the later part of his life, Chandrakant Joshi became a cinema activists. He set up Kalamahrshi Baburao Painter Film Society which organizes the annual Kolhapur International Film Festival. He was regarded as the encyclopedia of Marathi film industry. Chandrakant Joshi was engaged in organising another film festival when he fell unconscious. He was admitted in a hospital where he breathed his last on December 20, 2021, at the age of 77. [Information culled out from various newspapers, such as Maharashtra Times, Loksatta, Times of India etc].
One of his sons, Hrishikesh Joshi acted as a child artist in the film under discussion. A post-graduate from the National School of Drama, Delhi, Hrishikesh Joshi is an eminent actor in Marathi/Hindi films and theatres, TV serials and Web-series.
I was aware of Sudheer Moghe as a Marathi film lyricist from my younger days as I was very fond of his popular songs in a classic Marathi mystery thriller film, ‘हा खेळ सावल्यांचा’, 1976 (English meaning: Shadow Play). Later on, I came to know that more than as a lyricist, he was well-known as a Marathi poet and writer.
Sudheer Moghe (08/02/1939 – 15/03/2014) was born at Kirloskarwadi near Sangli. When recognition came to him as a poet, sometime in early 1970s, he resigned his job and shifted to Pune to concentrate on poetry writing. To take care of his livelihood, he turned lyricist in Marathi films which he had no intention to continue for long. His main focus was on poetry writing which for him was as necessary as the breathing. During 1987-2010, he presented his one-man show ‘Kavita Panopaani’ during which he would recite his poems from the memory, sometime in tune he composed. Pandit Bhimsen Joshi gave him the title of ‘Kaviraj’.
Sudheer Moghe became one of the most sought-after lyricists for Marathi films. He also wrote and composed lyrics in Hindi for a few TV serials. Despite becoming popular as a lyricist, Sudheer Moghe decided to quit as a lyricist in early 1990s as his nature was to try something different. In this pursuit, he became music composer, dialogue/screenplay writer, anchoring for radio and television programmes and lastly a painter.
Sudheer Moghe breathed his last on March 15, 2014, at Pune at the age of 75 after a prolonged illness. [With inputs from a Marathi article written by Hema Shrikhande, the elder sister of Sudheer Moghe in ‘Loksatta’ – March 15, 2015].
Sudheer Moghe’s elder brother Shrikant Moghe who was a well-known Marathi film and theatre actor, also acted in the film under discussion in the role of a sarpanch.
I watched ‘Sutradhar’ (1987) on one of the video sharing platforms.
It is a story of a young man, Kumar (Nana Patekar) who in his childhood, has witnessed his poor father getting beaten up by the henchmen of the landlord (Girish Karnad) for no fault of his. He has also seen landlord’s other atrocities. Kumar grows up to become a teacher with a disgust toward the landlord. Kumar transforms the village with his good social work with the help of Prerana (Smita Patil), the daughter of the School’s Headmaster, whom he eventually marries. Because of his good work, Kumar gets support from the villagers to stand for the election against the landlord and he wins.
With power in his hands, over a period of time, Kumar’s behaviour becomes just like that of the landlord whom he hated the most in his younger days. Now, Kumar’s primacy is to become more powerful by contesting election for the assembly seat. This is resented by Prerana who feels that with his zeal to become more powerful, he has neither time to pay attention to the family nor to the problems of villagers. She wants him to refrain from contesting assembly election which he rejects. Disgusted with his attitude, Prerana leaves Kumar and shifts to her father’s place.
The election politics create rifts between two groups of his supporters leading to the death of Bansilal (Kamalakar Sarang) one of his close associates who does not have a good reputation. Actually, this was the handwork of Kumar who feels that his association with Bansilal may affect his election prospects. The film ends with Kumar attending the funeral of Bansilal, assuring his widow and her young son that he would take care of them financially and leaves for his election campaign. The film brings out as to how power and politics can change the behaviour of a person from good to bad.
‘Sutradhar’ (1987) has six songs including one recitation of a shloka. The remaining five songs have been written by Brahmanand (1), Sant Kabeer (1) and Sudheer Moghe(3). All the songs have been set to music by Sudheer Moghe. I am presenting the film’s first song ‘ye shaam ke rangeen saaye’ to appear on the Blog. The song is rendered by Jyotsana Hardikar, her first playback singing in Hindi film. Sudheer Moghe is the lyricist as well as the music director for this song.
The song is picturised on Smita Patil and Nana Patekar who were the childhood friends in the village. They meet after a gap of 18 years as she was away in Shantiniketan for her education. She is impressed with his work for the betterment of the village and supports him in his works. This song is the culmination of their association into marriage.
Towards the end of the film when both Nana Patekar and Smita Patil have separated, a part of an additional stanza of this song is faintly heard in the background when Smita Patil remembers her association with Nana Patekar to her present position. No video or audio clip of the short background song is available as of now. The additional stanza which I got from a Marathi article written by Hema Shrikhande, the elder sister of Sudheer Moghe is as under:
haan issi shaam mein hamko sab kuchh mila
ek kinaara mila ek ghar bhi mila
adhkhila mann khila
raaz uska khula
kaise chhupaayen

Thanks Sir ji for introducing this movie here on the blog. I remember to have watched it on Doordarshan then and remember that it was an intense movie. However never remembered its songs.
Nice post. And thanks for the information about Chandrakant Joshi, and especially information about Sudheer Moghe. I think I always consider the actor Shrikant Moghe as Sudheer Moghe.
Like the song in this post.
Thanks and regards,
And once again wishing you a very happy birthday today !!!
