5 years ago film maker Ajay Phansekar tried something different in Marathi films. For his film ‘Ramachandra Purushottam Joshi’ he made use of Graphic presentation on the lines of Harry Potter films. At that time, he had even shot the movements of certain characters in Black Chroma and even edited those portions. But, the deadly natural calamity of 26th July downpour caused heavy destruction to his studio and godown with the floods causing complete damage to the film.

However, that did not deter Ajay from completing this film, in spite of heavy loss. He began work on this film once again and today, he is all set to complete his film by end of August 2010 with post production.
‘Ramachandra Purushottam Joshi’ is based on the director’s own play-‘Shraddha’ that narrates the story of a dead man, who is permitted by Yama to revisit his family for eight hours as a bonus offer from the doors of hell. The film’s screenplay is expected to offer variety entertainment through all those graphic effects with the support of popular artistes like Dilip Prabhavalkar, Deepak Shirke, Rajan Tamhane and Vikas Kadam playing important roles.
