Marathi Talkies segment has been launched at the upcoming Jio MAMI Mumbai International Film Festival to celebrate the Marathi cinema.
In the recent years, Marathi cinema has seen a boom in viewership in India, thanks to the makeover the industry underwent in 2010. We have seen some unconventional and splendid films taking over the world cinema stage and winning hearts across countries, breaking the language barrier. Film festivals like MAMI have also proven beneficial to the industry as they provide a platform for progressive Marathi cinema to showcase itself.
Marathi films to be showcased this year at Marathi Talkies are Ventilator, Vakratunda Mahakaya, Bioscope and Rajwade & Sons. Jio MAMI with Star, Festival Director, Anupama Chopra said, “Marathi cinema has always been an integral part of MAMI. With Marathi Talkies, we are creating a special showcase for great Marathi cinema. We hope that this will help to serve both the Marathi film industry and viewers.”
