Plot
The story of this film revolves around two politicians from the same village. One of them is an elected MLA from Village constituency Narayan Wagh and the other being his opponent Vishwasrao Tope, who has lost the election to Mr. Wagh by a narrow margin. But, Vishwasrao manages to get this nomination as MLC. So, to prove their supremacy, they indulge themselves in dirty politics, so as to turn the tables on each other. And, this clearly goes on to show how murky the politics is at the village level.

Reception
Maharashtra Times rated 3 stars out of 5 stars, saying the film comments on rural politics and power-hungry politicians and offers decent entertainment for a couple of hours, though it feels repetitive and stereotypical.[4] Mihir Bhanage of The Times of India gave 3 stars out of 5 stars and wrote "It is not just a mindless entertainer but a very clever one for those who can make out the references in it."[3]
Loksatta said the film is highly entertaining, with sharp writing and dialogues that cleverly comment on today’s politics, making the writer the real hero, well supported by strong performances.[1] Divya Marathi praised the film as a bold and insightful take that exposes political hypocrisy and deserves a triple salute.[5]
