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.

A source told Bollywood Hungama, “Boney Kapoor was quite blown by Baipan Bhari Deva. He began the process of getting the rights to the film in 2024. The same year, he managed to acquire the rights. He now has the rights to remake the film in Tamil and Telugu languages.”

The source further said, “He paid a whopping Rs. 2 crores for the remake rights as he is aware of the potential of Baipan Bhari Deva’s story.”

Another source told us, “Boney ji will soon lock the directors for the Tamil and Telugu versions and also cast appropriate faces. He’s confident that the female actors from the two industries would be too excited to be a part of such a film, where all the females have author-backed roles.”

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).

Last year, on Women’s Day 2024, Kedar Shinde and Jio Studios announced a sequel to Baipan Bhari Deva, titled Aaipan Bhari Deva. Last week, the studio announced the plans to re-release in cinemas on Baipan Bhari Deva on March 7, 2025, to coincide with International Women's Day, which falls just a day later.

The dry period in Bollywood might temporarily halt with the release of this week’s Srikanth, starring Rajkummar Rao, Jyotika, Alaya F and Sharad Kelkar.

Bombay High Court orders stays the release of Hamare Baarah, two days before the film’s release June 07, 2024 at 01:02PM

By Banglore Film City
Hamare Baarah, which is making news for its bold approach and thought-provoking plotline, has been mired in controversy, with the makers landing in deep trouble. The highly anticipated release of Annu Kapoor, Manoj Joshi, and Paritosh Tripathi starrer, has encountered a significant setback as the Bombay High Court has issued a stay on its release just two days before its scheduled release on June 7, extending the hold until June 14. This unexpected turn of events has impacted the premiere of the film which was expected to be held this week, leaving makers in an uncertain dilemma. The legal obstacle arises from a petition filed by activists from a specific religious community at the Mumbai High Court, opposing the film's release. Producers Birender Bhagat and Ravi S Gupta have raised serious concerns regarding the imposition of the stay, especially given that the film had already obtained a censor certificate. In a recent statement given to NDTV, Mr Bhagat explained their predicame...
