I hope he will be very proud to read my article and add some humorous anecdotes in his comments. I have a deep regret that I delayed so much in paying my tribute to P.L. Deshpande belongs to league of great authors like R.K.Narayan, Ruskin Bond, Mark Twain and P.G.Wodehouse. One such personality was the humorist and multifaceted playwright, actor, music composer and author P.L.Deshpande popularly known as Pu la (Short form of his name Purushottam Lakshman). An iconic pic of ever smiling pu la deshpande His artwork is sufficient to connect to millions. An artist – be a writer, actor, playwright, music composer or singer is never hungry for popularity. The universe of art is bigger than God’s universe. Art is not restricted to language, demography or even audience. The city has only one single screen theatre at present.A small time political worker once remarked that Marathi playwright P.L.Deshpande’s contribution towards theatre, literature and movies was limited only till Maharashtra. TOI recently published a report regarding the closure of single screen theatres in Nashik. Such theatres should be saved to take Marathi movies to smaller towns and villages," Patekar said. "Many single screen theatres are facing closures across the state.
He also highlighted the dilapidated condition of single screen theatres across the state. This policy has increased the quantity of Marathi movies released every year to 100, but most of them are losing on the quality from," Manjrekar said. "The government gives Rs 40 lakh as financial assistance to every film selected under the scheme.
Nana, Manjrekar bat for single screens Terming the state government's scheme of providing financial assistance to Marathi film producers as 'a waste of money', Manjrekar suggested it to provide monetary help to single screens to improve their condition. Actors Sunil Barve and Medha Manjrekar as well as producer Vishwas Joshi also interacted with the audience at the memorial. I am fortunate to be the first one to present this on screen," Patekar said. His poetic prose and power-packed soliloquies make this play a milestone and every actor belonging to Marathi theatre dreams of playing this character once in a lifetime. "The entire credit of the greatness and freshness of the film's script goes to the rich words used by Kusumagraj. While interacting with movie-lovers and connoisseurs at Kusumagraj Memorial, the actor shared several fond memories with the literary stalwart and his long association with Nashik.

The worldwide release of the movie is scheduled on January 1. Now, we are here at Kusumagraj Memorial once gain to seek his blessings before the film goes to screens," Patekar said. "We had made the announcement of this movie in Nashik. Deshmukh's role was performed by many actors on Marathi theatre, but the most remarkable portrayals were by Dr Sriram Lagu and Datta Bhat, who also hails from Nashik. The play was written by V V Shirwadkar, alias 'Kusumagraj', who was from Nashik. The movie and the original play share special bonding with Nashik. Manjrekar was in Nashik with senior actor Nana Patekar, who is playing the lead role of Ganpatrao Deshmukh in 'Natasamrat'. I am sure everyone will readily work with me out of their love for P L Deshpande and his literature," he said, adding that 'Vyakti Ani Valli' might be the first Marathi film to be made in three separate parts. I am planning to involve each and every great actor from contemporary Marathi industry in this project. "My dream is to make a movie on 'Vyakti Ani Valli', a play based on the famous book written by P L Deshpande.
At least Bollywood producer-director Mahesh Manjrekar, who was in the city on Saturday along with the team of his upcoming film 'Natasamrat', is planning to do so.
NASHIK: It seems the recent trend of screen adaptation of iconic Marathi plays is set to continue after the recent success of Subhodh Bhave's film 'Katyar Kaljat Ghusli'.
