The Marathi cinema got a big boost in 2023 with Baipan Bhari Deva. The film starred six female actresses in the lead and it was a runaway success from day 1.
The film was loved for its concept, performances, relatability and music; moreover, it also has a universal appeal. It means it has the potential to be adapted to other languages.
The enterprising producer Boney Kapoor has taken the initiative and is all set to remake the Marathi blockbuster down South.
Directed by Kedar Shinde and backed by Jio Studios in association with Emveebee Media, Baipan Bhari Deva features Rohini Hattangadi, Deepa Parab, Vandana Gupte, Suchitra Bandekar, Shilpa Navalkar and Sukanya Kulkarni.
It tells the story of six estranged sisters who are forced to come together for the ‘Managala Gaur’ competition. It collected a huge Rs. 76.05 crores in cinemas and is the second highest grosser of Marathi cinema after Sairat (2016).
