Girija Oak Godbole, Actress

Well known Marathi actress had almost taken a break for a while from acting in films and serials. But, she remained active presenting a cookery show. Now, we understand that her film and drama will be released soon. In the meanwhile, we are watching her in two popular advertisements on small screen, which are repeatedly played, during the break of popular TV serials during prime time.

Even otherwise, our Marathi artistes are seen in many TV ads. Prominent among them is Nikhil Ratnaparkhi. Now days, we notice Sachit Patil, Pankaj Vishnu, Aishwarya Narkar also part of some popular ads. One way, it is a good way of for artistes to remain in limelight, as audience to tend to forget a particular artiste, if the artiste doesn’t have much work in films and serials. Some prefer to be part of Marathi dramas; but, playing a model for popular brands, is always a good option. You always remain in the limelight.

Last week International Yoga day was celebrated throughout the world. And, our Marathi TV serials were nowhere behind. Most of them tried to propagate the importance of Yoga among the audience. And, that was a very fine gesture.

Last week Star Pravah began a new serial ‘Yek Number’ on the backdrop of an Engineering college. This serial was is in news prior to its telecast, because of the small screen debut of Chirag Patil, son of former test Cricketer Sandeep Patil. Chirag is not new to acting, as he has been part of one Hindi and one Marathi film, before making his television debut. But, in presence of his talented co star Madhuri Desai , he hasn’t been much impressive, through his body language and dialogue delivery. Though, he has a very good personality, he needs to brush up his acting skills, if has to remain in the race.

Another Star Pravah serial ‘Runji’ seems to be moving off the track, with unwanted and unconvincing happenings noticed in past few episodes. So, it will be difficult for talented Pallavi Patil to carry forward this show, only at her own strength. One more serial ‘Kamala’ on Colors channel, which had generated a lot of interest in the initial stage, also seems to be moving off the track, with not much interest generated, through its ongoing screenplay.

Finally, when we talk about ‘Honar Sun Mee Hya Gharchi’ on Zee Marathi, it is felt that it is enough of Shree-Janhavi drama. Both are losing their popularity. Even Mothi Aai looks tired now, through her body language, repeating the same dialogues again and again.
