Now days, release of 3 to 4 films on a Friday has become a routine. Only if, there are 5 or more films to be released on Friday, it becomes a news. Accordingly, yesterday we had made a news about 5 films to be released this Friday. Till yesterday, we had seen advertisements of all these films in news papers and on television about their Friday release. Press shows of two of these films are already over and press show of ‘Sangharshayatra’ was to be held on Wednesday. But, early hours of Wednesday, all the film critics received message from this film’s PRO stating that release date of ‘Sangharshayatra’ was postponed for the second time.

The news about postponement of release date of this film, certainly created confusion among the press reporters, as this was happening for the second time. Actually, the film had done lot of advertising and had even done promotion of television. On the last occasion, when the first look of the film was unveiled in presence of media people, the makers of this film had jokingly said that the release of this film was deliberately done late, as Mr. Munde (on whose life, the film is based) also used to arrive late at the functions . But, frankly speaking they should not compare the audience attending political rallies with audience of Marathi films.

One can understand about the healthy competition noticed among Marathi films, for the past few months. Yet, nothing has been done so far, about becoming firm on the release dates of their films. Sometimes, we notice 3 to 4 Marathi films being released at a time; but on a particular Fridays, there is no film released. One can understand about the decision of Marathi film makers, not release their film on 18^th December 2015, due to release of two big banner Hindi films. But, on 25^th of December, no film was released.

‘Mohar‘, which had earlier announced its release on 25^th December, later thought of taking on the mighty ‘Natasamraat’ on 1^st January 2016 and we saw the consequences of it.

‘Sangharshayatra’ which was scheduled for release on 11^th December 2015, to coincide with the birth anniversary of late Gopinath Munde; postponed its release date at the last moment, even after issuing official advertisements about its release. Then we saw ‘Youth’ also postponing its release date from 15^th January to 5^th February 2016, for the reasons best known to its maker. Perhaps, this being a film on youth, they expected competition from ‘Friends’.

Now, talking about ‘Friends’, the film was supposed to release on 22^nd January 2016, along with Sanjay Jadhav’s film ‘Guru’. But, now they have preponed their film’s release to 15^th January 2016, along with films like ‘Shasan’ and ‘Chahato Mi Tula’. One can understand the association of Swapnil and Ankush during ‘Duniyadari’ and also Sachit’s   friendship with Ankush.So, possibly, they might have had some amicable solution, instead of clashing of their films, against each other.

Among the other Marathi films, which have announced their release dates in January 2016, are ‘Anuraag’- 21^st January 2016, ‘Athang’ – 29^th January 2016 and Mumbai Time also on 29^th January 2016. And, we only hope that they don’t change their dates.

Though she has been able to gain popularity as an actress on small screen, Shruti Marathe is still trying hard to establish herself as a lead actress, in Marathi films. She did receive lead roles in few films including ‘Tujhi Majhi Love Story’; but these films didn’t do well at ticket windows. But, her performance was noticed in films like ‘Rama Madhav’, ‘Taptapadi’ and latest released film ‘Mumbai Pune Mumbai-2’.

With few days left for the opening of new year, Shruti Marathe is looking forward to release of her two films ‘Sangharshayatra’ and ‘Bandh Nylonche’, in which she has prominent roles to play. While in ‘Sangharshayatra’, she plays the role of Pankaja Munde , the young dynamic leader and daughter of late BJP leader late Gopinath Munde, in ‘Bandh Nylonche’ she plays opposite Subodh Bhave , which is also equally important role, as she has to react more, instead of delivering her dialogues, which are very limited to her share. But, Shruti is happy with these two roles and is eagerly waiting for the release of these two films.
