The film was officially announced on 5 September 2024.[6]
Plot
The Dabhade family gathers for Prashant’s (Amey Wagh) wedding with Komal (Rajasi Bhave). Like many family occasions, long-buried conflicts resurface, creating tension, drama, and emotional outbursts.
Elder sister Jayashree (Kshitee Jog) arrives with her husband, Sachin (Harish Dudhade). She is deeply frustrated, struggling with infertility and the failure of her first IVF attempt. Younger brother Kiran (Siddharth Chandekar) returns home after two years. His heartbreak lingers from a failed romance with his cousin Madhuri (Mitali Mayekar), a marriage that never happened due to Jayashree’s opposition. Kiran, however, blames his father, Sadanand (Rajan Bhise), for the break-up.
As the wedding festivities proceed, tensions bubble beneath the surface. Prashant privately struggles with intimacy issues involving protection during sex with Komal. Meanwhile, Kiran unexpectedly meets Madhuri and her husband, Vaibhav (Suyog Gorhe). Though Madhuri is happily married, her candid advice helps Kiran to heal and move forward.
Gradually, reconciliation takes place within the family. Jayashree finds peace, Prashant understands and overcomes his hesitation, and Kiran lets go of his resentment. By the end, the siblings resolve their conflicts, restoring harmony in the Dabhade household.
In September 2024, the film was announced with a poster featuring the three lead actors, along with its release date set for 15 November 2024.[10] However, during Diwali 2024, the makers unveiled a new poster featuring the extended cast and announced that the release had been postponed to 24 January 2025.[11][12]
Reception
Fussclass Dabhade received mixed to positive reviews from critics, with praise for its performances and emotional depth but criticism for its pacing and narrative coherence. Nandini Ramnath of Scroll.in described the film as a "bittersweet saga" about three siblings, appreciating the performances of Amey Wagh, Siddharth Chandekar, and Kshitee Jog, but noted that the film struggles to balance its comedic and dramatic elements.[13] Devendra Jadhav, writing for Lokmat, lauded the film’s heartfelt portrayal of sibling dynamics and Hemant Dhome’s direction, though he pointed out that the screenplay occasionally feels overstretched.[14] Kalpesh Kubal of The Times of India gave the film a 3.5/5 rating, commending the chemistry among the leads and the film’s emotional resonance, but criticized its uneven pacing.[15] Santosh Bhigarde of Sakal highlighted the film’s relatable themes and strong ensemble cast, but felt that the narrative could have been tighter to maintain audience engagement.[16]
