But, Dr.Amol Kolhe‘s forthcoming Marathi drama ‘Bandh Mukta‘ will be an exception. Dr. Amol who is also the producer of this drama, along with Vilas Sawant and Sonali Ghanashyam Rao, has decided to hold the inaugural show, as the premiere show of this play on 12^th August 2016 at Ravindra Natya Mandir, Mumbai. Many dignitaries from social, medical, political, business, literature are expected to attend this show.

The play deals with an unusual but timely subject of ‘Mercy Killing‘ and therefore, it has already generated more interest among drama enthusiasts.

But, even today, there is a debate on whether ‘Mercy Killing‘ be legalized in India. Dr. Amol Kolhe himself will play lead role ‘Bandh Mukta‘ play, along with Ketaki Thatte, Rajan Bane, Shantanu Moghe, Vivek Apte, Pandhari Medge & Latika Sawant.
