Grand celebration for three years of ‘Takatak’ release
The year 2019 had not seen grand success of any Marathi film till 28th June, the day Milind Kavade’s film ‘Takatak’ was released. This film broke all the records as far as the box office was concerned with unprecedented success , in and around that year. Actually, this adult comedy saw the light of the day, during that phase. The memories of film’s release and subsequent success are still fresh in the memory of the entire team of ‘Takatak’.
Recently, this entire team including Prathamesh Parab recalled and celebrated the happy occasion in a grand way, by cutting a cake. The artistes of this film and producers were present in happy mood. Speaking on this occasion Says Writer-director Milind Kavde said, “The biggest success that the film managed to achieve is the love it received from all the audience. The actors do their job on the screen while we perform behind the stage in the background but not many are aware of the contribution of the people who work behind the scene but Takatak success reinforced the belief.”
Coinciding with this success party, now Takatak 2 is all set to be released on 18 August 2022.
“Takatak has given me new identity” – says Prathamesh Parab
Some artistes become popular with the name of important character played by them in the film. After the release of the film ‘Balak Palak’, Prathamesh Parab was identified with his character name of Vishu in this film. Later, when he did the film ‘Timepass’ he received the identity of Dagadu , the lead character played by him in this film. But now, after the release of his latest film ‘Takatak’, he has received his new identity as ‘Thokya’, which is an important character in this film, though it is not the lead role.
This clearly indicates that Prathamesh has played this character in such a way that wherever he has gone after the release of this film, he has been called with the name ‘Thokya’. Speaking about this new identity, Prathamesh says, “Whether it is Vishu, Dagadu or Thokya, the credit for these roles go to writers and directors of these three films. All the youngsters feel that they should have a friend like ‘Thokya’ played by me in this film. And this is a good compliment for this character. Actually, Thokya is the real hero of this film, but he has not behaved like a hero through this character and that is the reason behind this character’s popularity.”
