First poster of Sai Tamhankar’s film ‘Pondicherry’ released
Sai Tamhankar has begun shooting of her forthcoming film ‘Pondicherry‘ at Pondicherry from 1st February 2019. On the first day itself the first poster of this film was released in which we find black and white look of Sai Tamhankar, which is without make up. And therefore, there is a lot of curiosity among Sai’s fans, as this film will be shot with I Phone and in this film Sai will be working without make up.
Speaking about this film, Sai Tamhankar says, “This is the first film which is being shot on I Phone and my look is very natural in this film, as there is no make up and no hairstyle. The entire film is being shot in Pondicherry and I am enjoying every moment during this process, which is like attending a workshop. I feel that every actress should experience working in such a film, where she gets a chance to come out of her comfort zone and attempt something different.”
By the way, after ‘Vazandar‘ this is the second film Sai Tamhankar is doing with film maker Sachin Kundalkar.
Sachin Kundalkar is shooting his new Marathi film on a Smartphone
National award winning film maker Sachin Kundalkar who made Marathi films like ‘Nirop‘, ‘Gandha‘, ‘Happy Journey‘, ‘Rajwade & Sons‘, & ‘Vazandaar‘ is presently shooting his next Marathi film ‘Pondicherry‘ in Pondicherry itself. Attempting something different every time, this time he is making a travel vacation film and therefore he has selected a picturesque place like Pondicherry with the same title. But, the highlight of this film is that this film is being shot by him on a smartphone.
Having seen Marathi films on the backdrop of cities like Mumbai, Pune, Konkan or Goa, this time the Marathi film lovers will witness a different location outside Maharashtra and that too at a place, which is known for its picturesque locations. Not much was known about the film’s cast and story, except that he along with writer Tejas Modak were doing a film on the backdrop of Pondicherry. But, recently, Sachin Kundalkar shared a photo clearly indicating that Sai Tamhankar, Amruta Khanvilkar, Vaibhav Tatwawaadi and Neena Kulkarni formed his team of lead artistes. And, this is very interesting!
