As an actor, Sadashiv Amrapurkar had created his own identity in Hindi and Marathi film industry. As a citizen of this country, he never forgot his social commitments to the society. No wonder, after his sad demise, his family members formed a Trust Sadashiv Amrapurkar Memorial Trust to help the young filmmakers from rural parts. It may be recalled that the legendary actor himself had come from the rural area to establish himself in the tinsel town of Mumbai. And, on his own, he established himself as an actor par excellence.

Now, his daughter and filmmaker Reema Amnrapurkar who is managing the trust in her father’s name, has started a project with the name of ‘Saadhan’ to provide the scholarship in the form of supply of equipment to genuine filmmakers, who are unable to hire the equipments for filmmaking. The Trust will select the projects from such film makers and after going through the subject, will come forward to help such projects by way of part or full scholarship. For the past three years, the trust has been conducting workshops on filmmaking in schools and colleges in rural areas of Ahmednagar district. Hon. Minister Mr. Vinod Tawde has also shown his support for the work undertaken by Sadashiv Amrapurkar Memorial Trust.
