The Marathi Entertainment scene is slowly and steadily taking a front seat in the Indian Entertainment scene as it puts forth quality content decade after decade. With great storytelling, stellar performances and amazing talent, the Marathi Entertainment industry has it all! However, due to a lack of magnanimous budget, the industry has remained on the outskirts of the limelight. With evolution over time, and recent box office successes like ‘Chandramukhi’ and ‘Pawankhind’ proving the mettle of this regional industry, the audience is offered with a fresher, riveting concept especially in the OTT space. The makers of the ‘Raanbaazaar’ are doing just that in capturing this wave. Made in accordance with international standards, this home-grown web-series is a one-of-a-kind political thriller that is all set to blow your mind…
RISK-TAKING
In a quest to push boundaries, Director Abhijit Panse chooses to tell a risque story of dirty politics in his anticipated web-series. In ‘Raanbaazaar’, he brings forth content that is not for the faint hearted. Apart from the makers’ risks, the stellar starcast including popular actors like Tejaswini Pandit and Prajakta Mali who play gritty characters have also taken a road not taken. Looking at the audiences and critics’ reception, it looks like the risk paid off!
UNORDINARY STORYLINES
Raanbaazaar is a political story with an extraordinary storyline. It is not just another political series. Drawing from social, crime, noir and thriller, the series is an interesting take on political commentary. Centering around two gritty characters who shake the core of the State’s political systems, Raanbaazaar is a motley of genres and sensibilities. The series sets a great example of creating out-of-the-ordinary storylines in the Marathi web series space. Jaded viewers of the run-of-the-mill content are sure to be elated with the change of scene this series promises.
CREATE AN APPETITE FOR THRILLER
International web-series are at the top of their game, owing to the high emphasis on thrilling content. Viewers at the end of the day wish to be captivated and mesmerized, forgetting to count the hours on the clock when they watch something. Marathi's webspace is missing that wave of edgy, hair raising thrill when it comes to its series. The hope is that ‘Raanbaazaar’ can set high benchmarks for thrillers in this space. With a tight plot, gripping tension, tenacious characters and unpredictable twists- we can hope to witness a new thriller wave in Marathi OTT space which will take it up several notches
