It is raining biopics as far as the Marathi film industry is concerned. And what's more they are paying very good dividends at the box office for the producers who dare to make biopics too. After Bal Gandharva which created a havoc at the box office, we had Natsamrat which proved to be a gold spinner. Then recently we had Aani Dr Kashinath Ghanekar starring Subodh Bhave in the title role, and directed by Mahesh Manjrekar and produced by Viacom Motion Pictures which is running in theaters even now after a month. Now in the series, we have a film titled Bhai-Vyakthi Ki Valli, which is on the life and times of Purushottam Laxman Deshpande fondly called as P.L. Deshpande, who was a literary giant cum genius who also dabbled in writing, poetry, music. Besides Sagar Deshmukh , who plays the role of P.L. Deshpande and Iravati Harshe who plays his wife, the film also boasts 68 other actors including Daliup Tahil who plays the role of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru. The trailer as well as the poster of the film was launched wigth great fanfare at Blue Sea the other day by Viacom Marathi and Mahesh Manjrekar, who saw to it that Viacom broke their tradition of not serving alcohol at all at its parties and served the members of the media with the choicest of scotch whiskies, making a scribe comment wryly that every Marathi film which is being made by Viacom should be directed by Mahesh Manjrekar himself. It is interesting to note that the film which is slated to release on January 4 next year will also have its own sequel which will be released a month later.
