Life is full of small moments of fun, all we need is the eye for hilarious things that are constantly happening around us. So what is the colour of life? Is it Red? Is it green? No it has the prismatic lines of the multi coloured spectrum. The film 'Lapandav' which means "Hide and Seek" in Marathi is full of interesting characters. There is sweet and sour tangle of relationships which is complicated further due to misunderstandings. The film maintains its flavour throughout. The confusion due to the simplicity and overzealousness of the characters keeps the audience's interest intact throughout the film. The human elements and the portraits of the human characters and their relationships with each other are brought out in a very honest and enjoyable manner. What it all adds up to, is that in life, we are always taking our loved ones for granted. We end up comparing them with others, never really seeing or appreciating their individual strength. All of us are constantly finding the grass greener on the other side. As a result attraction develops…misunderstandings occur and life soon resembles a game of Hide and Seek…

"Tukaram" was born in 1608 in Dehu, a village near Pune to a family who were devoted followers of the deity Vitthal or Vithoba (a form of Lord Vishnu, the Preserver in the Hindu Trinity). The family belonged to the Kunbi caste, they were moneylenders and traders by profession. 'Tukaram' had a very normal childhood. He was fascinated with Lord Vitthal who he claimed as his dear friend. He was a very innocent and generous kid and would freely park with his toys or personal belongings with his friends. As he grews up he takes up the family responsibility as his elder brother is not interested in the material world and is drawn completely towards spiritual pursuits. When his first wife 'Rakhma' is unable to bear a child, he bows to his family's wishes and marries 'Aavli'. Tuka tries to become a good son and husband but the arrival of a major famine destroys this beautiful picture. He loses both his parents, his sister-in-law (brother's wife) dies and his elder brother 'Savji' abandons home. His first wife and son die too; during this hopeless atmosphere of a terrible three-year-long famine, 'Tukaram' realizes that the perennial treasure of God's grace is far more valuable than ephemeral worldly riches and he shifts his focus to divine worship. He does not choose to quit his responsibilities though and follow a solitary path. Instead, he feels it is more important to try and reduce the sorrows of the people around him. For him, being 'a good human being' is as vital as being a good son, friend or husband.
