OVERALL
The characterisation of all characters seems quite strong and their performance is worth a watch. As this is Shashank Ketkar’s debut film still he has played his role wonderfully and given a complete justice to his character. In this one film there are different stories going simultaneously. These stories are connected to each other.
Foreign locations like Italy, France and Spain are a sure visual treat to eyes. Also It’s a first Marathi film which is shot on cruise so this is the plus point of film. All the songs of movie are good but Reshami Reshami and Befikara are the best tracks. All the characters are carried nicely by the actors.
Film justifies with it’s name One Way Ticket. The story goes and grows towards the title. Story is strong but while watching it feels like first half is taken too slow and the other half is too fast.
The movie is worth a watch.
