Ajay Devgn’s Marathi venture, ‘Aapla Manus’, starring Nana Patekar, explores the story of a young couple living with the man’s father, juggling the pressures of urban life and managing the complexity of relationships. An unexpected incident forces them to question their beliefs about their life and family. “The support and love I have received over the years has made me always want to give more to my fans. As a producer, ‘Aapla Manus’, is my first attempt to showcase my gratitude to the people of Maharashtra and I hope it will get appreciated by all,” Ajay said in a statement.
The film also marks Viacom18 Motion Pictures’ foray into Marathi films. “We have seen enormous audience growth in the Marathi filmscape in the past few years; not just in terms of box office performance but also in terms of the variety of genres,” Ajit Andhare, COO, Viacom18 Motion Pictures, said in a statement. “‘Aapla Manus’ is a thought-provoking film that will move the viewers and question perspectives. As we embark on this journey together with Ajay Devgn FFilms, Watergate Marathi Motion Pictures, and Shree Gajanan Chitra, we are certain that the movie will stand out from the clutter,” Andhare added.
Earlier this year, during the shoot of the movie, Ajay shared a photograph on Instagram in which his wife and actress Kajol was seen giving the clap on the first day of filming. “Aapla Manus” is slated to release on February 9. In a video shared on Twitter, Devgn says, “My bond with Maharashtra has been strong since birth. I always loved the Marathi language, but after getting married to Kajol, I fell more in love with Marathi culture.
He also talks about completing 25 years in the industry and even after experimenting with films, scripts and roles, his equation with the audience remains unchanged. In 2014, Devgn had presented and distributed Ganesh Kadam’s Marathi film, Vitti Dandu, which was written by Vikas Kadam and starred Dilip Prabhavalkar and Mrunal Thakur.
