Detective Marathi serial ‘Asmita‘ on Zee Marathi, now bears a new look, with slight change in investigating the cases by Asmita played by Mayuri Wagh and her team members comprising of Sid, Manali , Bandu, Rakesh & Sameer. Some of the cases taken up by this serial, during the past 2 3 weeks , were really timely and interesting, with a good message passed to the home viewers, besides making them aware of the happenings around. There were some cases, with injustice on helpless women. The case taken up about molestation of a blind girl in a running train, was well presented, with skillful investigation carried out.

On Sunday afternoon , watching all those episodes together, was like watching a feature film.But, we expect that ‘Asmita‘ should also help such victms showing the names of addresses of instutitions helping such helpless women, on the lines of the programme ‘Satyamev Jayate‘.

In the late night 10.30 pm slot, there is a new serial ‘Raatris Khel Chale‘ beginning on Zee Marathi, in place of ‘Dil Dosti Duniyadari’, which has said goodbye , half heatedly .Will be missing them all from coming Monday. It will be difficult for the new arrival, to entertain the same audience, as the subject of the new serial is totally different and based on superstition, that’s what the first look indicates. Hope, the subject presented is to remove superstition.

On Colors channel, popular veteran Marathi actress Alka Kubal Athlye is presenting a programme titled ‘Darshan‘ and one thought that she would make this programme interesting; but during the week, we saw her presenting a businessman from kalyan and the focus was more on that individual; rather than places of worship. One expected this programme to show the importance of old religious places and their history. But, the other serial on Colors channel ‘Ganapati Bappa Morya‘ presenting the childhood days Lord Ganesha is turning interesting, with some unheard stories.

Now, a 24×7 Marathi movie channel has been launched. Originally, it was running by the name ‘Aapala talkies‘. Now, it has been re branded as ‘Fakta Marathi’ . We have also seen couple of evergreen Marathi films ie. ‘Eena Meena Dika‘ , ‘Navri Mile Navryala‘ .. First time on it.
