How was the beginning? Acting or Direction?
I am the grandson of Shahir Sable. There was a family background for my profession. I was very passionate about acting and all the things related to this field. First I started with Acting, through the programme ‘Maharashtrachi Lokdhara’. After that I did One Act Play with Bharat Jadhav, Ankush Chaudhari. And then we also did some commercial comedy plays like ‘Sahi re Sahi’, ‘Hasa chakat-fu’, etc….. And people are enjoying them a lot and we are happy that all the shows are housefull in Pune, Bombay and other cities.
When you have started story writing and direction?
I was having attraction towards story writing and direction when I was doing plays. Then I got chance to direct the plays, serials. After the great success of the plays and serials I started to direct the Marathi movie. ‘Majha navara tujhi bayko’, ‘Jatra’, ‘Agabai Arrechcha’, ‘Yanda kartavya ahe’ and just released ‘Mukkampost London’ are some movies that I have directed. The screen-play and story was also written by me of all the movies. All the movies are successful and have done the good business on Marathi box office.
Have you decided to write and direct only comedy plays and movies?
From the beginning of my career in this field I have only done comedy. And our viewers also expect the great comedy from the team. And I always like to do and give the audience, what they want. That is another thing that I always arrange the different topics in my movies to entertain the viewer. I always try to create comedy as there may be some seriousness, emotions present in the movie. I don’t want to change the equation “Kedar Shinde=Dhammal Comedy”.
Something about your recently released ‘Mukkampost London’.
The ‘Mukkampost London’ is also a comedy movie. It is shot in London and Satara. This movie is a combination of both, comedy and emotions. This is the experiment to change the track from comedy to other subjects. Bharat Jadhav, Mohan Joshi and Mrunmayi Lagu had done their job very well in this movie. This time , we are presenting the different story through this movie.
Have you decided to direct only Marathi movies?
It is not decided yet. But as I am Marathi I would like to do only Marathi movies. Because in this industry there are so many people who want to do something for Marathi. They are always trying to do different things for Marathi movies. The thinking of viewers has changed that there is nothing new in the Marathi movies. So I’m trying to get the Marathi viewers back to Marathi movies. Marathi viewer must be satisfied by Marathi movies. So though I get the chance to do a Hindi movie I will prefer to do Marathi movie. I will always try to create good stories for Marathi movies.
The forthcoming movies you have directed?
My 2-3 movies are releasing in next 2-3 months. I have not only directed the movies but also the story and screenplay is written by me. ‘Bakula Namdev Ghotale’ is the title of the movie and the star cast for this movie is Bharat Jadhav, Siddharth Jadhav and Sonali Kulkarni from Pune as a debutant actress. And another is ‘Yancha Kahi Nem Nahi’. This is also a comedy. In this movie, Ankush Chaudhari, Bharat Jadhav and Siddhartha Jadhav are coming together after the great success of ‘Majha Navara Tujhi Bayko’ with Jaywant Wadkar and Resham Tipnis. These movies will definitely entertain the viewers.
