As the release date approaches near , the film makers are keen to be more visible through Digital, Print, Electronic media as much as possible. They find different reasons to be in the limelight, so as to create a buzz about their product. The latest to join the bandwagon of promotions is an upcoming new marathi film ‘Bugadi Mazi Sandali Ga’ (BMSG) . At a press conference on Tuesday evening , team BMSG interacted with the media persons.
The script writer, lyricist and director of ‘BMSG’ Mansingh Pawar welcomed the attendees and briefing about one-line story of the film, he opened up the arena for Q & A session. He was specifically asked about inspiration, as there are few films which boast about the life stories of Laavni performers, one example being V Shantaram’s Pinjra. Mr Pawar had hard time convincing media, that his story was original, although it may bear resemblance to some other film. He claimed his film, being musical, dramatic and romantic, besides entertaining.“We had a tough time finalising lead pair. Getting suitable artists for the respective characters, took a long time, but the wait was worth it, as we have now beautiful (Miss India 2013) Manasi (Moghe) and a very natural actor Kashyap Parulekar, ( Taptapadi fame) as the lead pair. And I am happy with their output,” said Mr Pawar.
Mr Shhyam Singhania, producer admitted that being a producer is a tough job but the experience will help him in his future film projects. ‘How do you adjust with the new lot of actors?’ To this question Ramesh Bhatkar mischievously replied ‘ I am still active(young) in the field, so no issues about working with anyone.’ Ila Bhate stated to have been able to do a varied shaded mother’s role in the film. Another veteran actor, part of the cast, Mohan Joshi could not attend the conference due to prior commitments. Kashyap Parulekar light heartedly stated that he learnt things from Mansinghji and taught the same to Manasi. On a serious note he stated ” I did not feel pressure working with Manasi (she being Miss India) and really I am glad to be part of BMSG.” Manasi Moghe reiterated “I can speak Marathi, though not chaste; but, our director helped me grasp the Kolhapuri marathi accent. Also visiting real Laavni shows and observing the performers have helped me.” When asked about the timing of the release of the movie during Cricket World Cup, the makers stated that their marketing team have taken all aspects into account, before deciding on the release date.
The executive producer Vivek Shah thanked the attendees and expected a positive response to the film ‘Bugadi Mazi Sandali Ga’, since it is hitting the theatres on 20th February 2015.
