“Characters in ‘Lost and Found’ are part of our society” – Ruturaj Dhalgade
In our Marathi film industry more and more talented directors are coming forward to present their stories, which are inspired from real life happenings. Ruturaj Dhalgade is one of them. After ‘Slambook’, this time he will be offering his new subject on importance of communication in loneliness. We are all aware how loneliness has affected the lives of people from different age groups and majority of them are older people, who have lost their partners or youngsters who struggle to overcome their breakups with their partners.
Ruturak Dhalgade has taken up this subject, to encourage all those victims of loneliness, to do something for the others, going through the same phase. With his background in Engineering, Ruturaj entered this area of filmmaking, because of his passion for cinema. MarathiMovieWorld met him during the press show of this film, when he was standing in one corner quietly, watching the reaction of media persons, during the break. “I was inspired to write the story of this film, as I had myself seen many such characters living a lonely life and always wanted someone to come and talk to them. These characters are all part of our society. In fact, the character of Maruti played by Mangesh Desai in this film, was very close to me and I had seen his depressed state of mind, after he lost all his family members in a tragedy. Through this film, I have tried to focus on the emotional side of each and every character and all the artistes have done a wonderful job.” he said.
