Kumar Sohoni Drama Fest in Thane between 25-31st March
Marathi theatre is considered one of the best in our country. It has always had the backing of solid literature with diversifying subjects , offering variety. The writers and directors never shunned away from social responsibility, while entertaining. Very importantly, they have been receiving the backing of able producers and not to forget the audience and their wholehearted support. Majority of actors, who after beginning with marathi theatre, later switched over to films and television. But, their affinity towards theatre never diminished. They made their comeback to theatre, whenever possible. Ashok Saraf, Laxmikant Berde, Prashant Damle, Bharat Jadhav to name a few.
