Hemant Dhome upset over cancellation of ‘Sunny’ shows
In the past, we have seen cancellation of shows of Marathi films at the 11th hour, in spite of booking of cinema halls and newspaper advertising about that show in a particular cinema hall.
पुन्हा एकदा महाराष्ट्रात मराठी चित्रपटांची गळचेपी… या राज्यात मराठी सिनेमासाठी जर आता एक शो मिळवायला झगडावं लागत असेल तर कठीण आहे! शुक्रवारी लागलेला सिनेमा दुसऱ्या दिवशी निघतोय! लोक सनी या चित्रपटाची तिकीटं काढतायत आणि शोज कॅन्सल केले जात आहेत!

Now, after a long break due to spread of corona pandemic, when we see reopening of theatres with the shows of the films, there has been limited attendance in theatres. However, we have not heard about cancellation of a show and refund of tickets to the buyers.
This has happened during the show of ‘Sunny’ in Kalyan. Refund has been given to the ticket buyer, after cancellation of show. The ticket buyer has brought this to the notice of Hemant Dhome, the director of this film, who in turn was upset expressed his reaction on social media. “ When the cinema hall is booked, it is obligatory on the part of theatre owner to screen the film, even if there is one buyer of ticket. Cancelling the show and refunding the ticket amount is a bad practice. We came to know about it as the audience pointed out this to us. This has not happened at one theatre, but also at different cinema halls in Maharashtra. This is injustice.” he said.
Paid Preview of ‘Sunny’ finds Full house
Makers of forthcoming Marathi film ‘Sunny’ tried a new experiment. They arranged a paid preview of their film in a theatre in Pune. Tickets for this paid preview were made available through an app. And to their surprise, within no time the tickets were sold and the show witnessed a full house. Looking at this response , the makers of this film arranged a paid preview in Thane and this show is also witnessing a full house.
Reacting to this overwhelming response for the paid preview of his film, Director Hemant Dhome says, “We just thought of experimenting by organising a paid preview and watching this response from film lovers, we organised another paid preview. We are very hopeful that the film lovers would respond to our film in the same manner when it is actually released in theatres.” Lead actor Lalit Prabhakar is also overwhelmed with the good response for Paid preview.’Sunny’ stars Lalit Prabhakar along with Chinmay mandlekar, Kshiti Jog, Abhishek Deshmukh, Amey Barve in lead roles.
‘Raat Hi…’ song from ‘Sunny’ is for homesick people
Youngsters, especially those who are staying far away from their home either for studying or job assignment, become ‘homesick’ and realize the importance of near and dear ones at home. Makers of forthcoming Marathi film ‘Sunny’ have released a song ‘Raat Hi…’ from this film, on the occasion of Diwali which is for all those homesick people who are missing their friends and relatives, more son during big festivals. This song is penned by Kshitij Patwardhan and is composed by Saumil Siddharth. Nikhil D’souza has rendered his voice for this song.
The story of ‘Sunny’ is written by Irawati karnik and this film is directed by Hemant Dhome. Dirctor Hemant Dhome feels that there is a lot of similarity between this song and his life. “ Whenever we are at home, there are small things, we give least importance. But, when we are far away from our home, we realise the importance of these small things. When we are far away, we miss all our relatives and close friends whenever it is festival time. ‘Sunny’ reminds you all these emotional feelings and this song is more touching.” Says Hemant.

Not all the web series these days are a worth watch, if the entire family decide to watch together; especially the Marathi web series. But, recently released ‘Pet Puraan (पेट पुराण)’ is an exception. This six episode Marathi Web series is also available in other regional languages on Sony Liv. A unique subject tried for the first time in Marathi by writer – director Dnyanesh Zoting, the story of this series revolves around a new age working couple Anjali ( Sai Tamhankar) and Atul( Lalit Prabhakar) who do not wish to have children. Instead, they prefer to adopt two pets a Dog ( Vyanku) and a Cat ( Baku).
Their parents are not very happy, but accept their children’s new role as pet parents. As we have seen around what difficulties are usually faced by such pet parents in our society. In this series, we see perhaps little more than that experience. Writer- director Dnyanesh Zoting has handled this subject very well, crteating many humour filled scenes, faced by the young couple in their day to day life. What is more appreciated is the language of this film which makes it a worth watch for the entire family. Being a subject based on pets, children are more attracted to this series, including little kids. And therefore, the dialogues are well written. And, they should continue with this, if they wish to continue with Season 2.
Thanks to Producer Ranjeet Gugle and writer- director Dnyanesh Zoting for handling this interesting subject. Good performances by all the artistes makes this series presentable, but there is better scope for the director to create more interesting scenes involving the pets in Season 2. Both Sai and Lalit have given full justice to their respective lead characters, with good support coming from other artistes like Satish Pulekar, Rasika Agashe, Pournima Manohar, Rishi Manohar, Deepti Lele, Aarav Khot, Ninad Gore. Kshitij Date, Sayalee Phatak and others. Don’t miss it. It’s entertaining for all age groups.

After directing successful Marathi films like ‘Uldhaal‘, ‘Satrani Re’, [movie review] ‘Narbachi Wadi’ [movie review] , ‘Classmates’ [movie review] & ‘Faster Fene’, [movie review] Aditya Sarpotdar has released the trailer of his new Marathi film ‘Zombivli (झोंबिवली)’ which will be a Horror Comedy. Aditya himself has unveiled the exciting trailer of this film on social media with an appeal to his well wishers to share the same among others.
In the trailer, we notice lead actor Amey Wagh and lead actress Vaidehi Parshurami facing the so called Zombies, while they are travelling in a car. They go to the police station and explain the Police officer about their description; but the Policeman is ready to believe him. The Zombies are most commonly found in horror and fantasy genre works in English films. So, in Marathi, this seems to be a new experiment tried by director Aditya Sarpotdar. Along with Amey Wagh and Vaidehi Parshurami the film also stars Lalit Prabhakar, Trupti Khankar and others.
The date of release of this film has been announced as 26th January 2022. So, let us wait and see how Amey Wagh and others succeed in countering these zombies in this film.

So, what is so special about the motion poster of this film.

According to the makers of this film, it indicates the bold, dynamic style and behaviour of the lead actor, who is a protagonist, who is willing to fight injustice in the society. Tarri is also used to describe a vibrant youngster in villages, who are called ‘Tarribaaz’ and hence this suitable title for this film.
