The NCPA – National Council for Performing Arts – has been running a Marathi Film Festival called Nave valan or new wave – since last year. The idea is to
to showcase what has perhaps gone unnoticed – that Marathi cinema, given a chance, can have mainstream appeal …..
The festival opens, in October, with this years National Award winner for Best Marathi film Natarang, and closes with Cogito Entertainment’s Maharashtra State Award Winner – Jhing Chik Jhing – the film that my company produced:)
All films exhibited will be run with sub-titles. Do go and see – and drop me a line on how you found the film/films.
The entire schedule from Saturday, 9th of October to Wednesday 13th October
