Shreyas Talpade’s ‘Poshter Boyz’ to be remade in Hindi
Following the success of Shreyas
Talpade’s latest venture, Poshter Boyz, the actor turned producer is planning
to make his Marathi venture 'Poshter Boyz' in Hindi to reach out pan India. The
film has struck gold at the box office; receiving rave reviews both from
critics and audiences alike. The movie
which opened with a 167 screen release across the state has collected over INR
1.60 crore in its first six days itself, making it one of the largest openers
of 2014 for Marathi cinema.
The movie benefited immensely from a
very aggressive marketing campaign and strong word-of-mouth driven by a novel
concept, original content and rib-tickling humour. Talking about it being remade in Hindi
Shreyas said, “"I am getting a lot of requests from my friends in media
and Bollywood that I should make the film in Hindi so that people across India
can enjoy it. I am thinking of making it in Hindi and let's see what
happens,"
Commenting on the
response his movie is getting, an elated Shreyas Talpade said, “We are
overwhelmed with the response we are getting for the film. Our focus was to
make an original, honest and clean family entertainer that would connect with
the masses and are glad that our efforts have been vindicated.
Being produced under Shreyas Talpade’s own banner Affluence Movies
Private Limited, Poshter Boyz is directed by Sameer Patil and has been shot
across real locations across Western Maharashtra. Other credits include
Producer and Costumes by Deepti Talpade, Associate Producer Hadi Ali Abrar,
story and dialogues by Sameer Patil, screenplay by Sameer Patil and Charudatt
Bhagwat, and cinematographer by Pushpank Gawde.
