Ajay Devgn to produce Marathi film starring Nana Patekar in the lead

Mumbai: We are very much aware of Ajay Devgn's acting capabilities, but his filmmaking skills are no less either.

He is one of the few actors to have also directed films and while he is known for producing big-budget films like his own directorial ‘Shivaay’ and multi-starrer entertainers like ‘Golmaal Again’, the actor-filmmaker has also backed content-driven films and regional movies as well.

Ajay had last year backed Radhika Apte’s ‘Parched’ which had earned appreciation at various international film festivals.

Even before Marathi film industry came into the limelight with massive success of ‘Sairat’, Ajay had produced the Marathi film ‘Vitti Dandu’ in 2014 .

He has now decided to lend his support to another Marathi language film and took to Twitter to make the announcement.

His actor-wife Kajol snapped the clapboard to give the Muhurat shot as the film, to be directed by Satish Rajwade, went on floors on Sunday.

The film stars Nana Patekar, who Ajay has shared screen space in films like ‘Apaharan’ and ‘Raajneeti.’

Ajay Devgn’s ‘Golmaal Again’ is set to release during Diwali this year.
