Made at a moderate budget Mukhiya Jee is a satire on the existing social and political scenario of Mithilanchal. Films scenes are hilarious and give indirect layers of message to audience. Film also deals with issues related to malaise in society, comic irony, corruption, bribery, adult education, cleanliness, health awareness among mass, competitive spirit, historical perspectives, industrialization & social development.
Nirmaana Motion Pictures, which is the producing banner of this film, is situated in Jhanjharpur in Madhubani district and lead by young Bihari entrepreneur Rajesh Ranjan Mishra who is a MBA from renowned national college. He has a dream to grow regional cinema industry internationally.
The story opens with two brothers who are widely famous for their verbal battles over trivial issues. Their shows are so interesting that people around villages buy the show tickets even in black. Their committed involvement in mutual rambling makes the god of abuses pleased as his agent appears and gifts them a common son who is christened as Mukhiya Jee. The two brothers don't accept Mukhiya Jee as their common son and thus the boy leaves the house and befriends some village kids. With the friendly kids team Mukhiya Jee kicks several hilarious mischief and one good day he decides to fight village headman election. As per the new rules, one must has to visit jail being convicted of doing some social revolution, thus the teenage boy decides to start a sanitation drive but soon finds himself in jail.
However, a cursed jail guard provokes him for a jailbreak, which the boy eventually does. Soon, the movements initiated by Mukhiya Jee start to bring sense of awareness among people and finally they unanimously elect Mukhiya Jee as the village headman.
The producer Rupesh Mishra says it is a golden moment of change in Maithili cinema industry which is not yet established, as the team is trained professionals from film schools, MBA graduates and young entrepreneurs belonging from Bihar who love their culture, language and returning home to serve the motherland best for growth and positive response.
The director of the film Vikash Jha explains the idea behind the film. “We are oriented with the objective to make a class apart Maithili cinema with brightest cinematic glory. Apart from any political convictions, this film deals with exaggerated imagination of usual events happening around society that is usually overlooked by civilians. It's about the journey of a god gifted character whose name is Mukhiya Jee played by Subhash Chandra Mishra on screen who confronts with social norms in his own way that creates a new shape of screen entertainment," he added.
It is among those few Maithili films which can boast of 5.1 Dolby digital sound. The film's music director Pravesh Mallick is hopeful about the reception of the music by the common audiences. “The music of Mukhiya Jee is quite different from the others as it has very new concept especially for any regional cinema. Two songs are based on objects like paan (beetle) and mobile, a very soulful and heart touching romantic song, a typical kirtan which we recorded live for feel, an item song, then songs for introduction of hero and heroine. “I am sure that the audience will feel like main stream film's songs," he said.
Films lead actor Subhash Chandra Mishra is a graduate from renowned film school and trained in screen acting and drama as well. He has done a range of short films in different challenging roles including Roommates, Abhivritti and Auditions. He not only acted in the film but also trained other artists who were working in this film for better results. Subhash is dedicated to work as an actor in his mother tongue Maithili too and realizes his responsibility to promote it as forefront language.
