At the sacred shrine of Shri Chintamani in Chinchpokli, Mumbai – a place of deep devotion for countless Ganesh devotees – the teaser of the upcoming Marathi film ‘Devghar On Rent’ was unveiled with great grandeur. With its intriguing title sparking curiosity, the film’s team took the blessings of Lord Ganesha before presenting the teaser to audiences. Present on the occasion were the film’s actors, producers, director, and technical crew. The film is set to release all over Maharashtra on November 28.
Presented by Radhakrushna Productions, the film is produced by Poonam Chaudhari Patil and directed by Swaroopp Sawant. The story has been written by Swaroopp Sawant and Poonam Chaudhari Patil, with screenplay and dialogues by Sanjay Navgire. Additional screenplay has been penned by Vishal Sudam Jadhao. The title itself hints at a unique blend of spirituality and contemporary life, which is reflected in the teaser. It conveys the thought that while living recklessly, if one surrenders to the voice within, life’s paths become easier. All that is required is the willpower to choose the right path—or to correct it if one strays. This profound spiritual idea is powerfully portrayed in ‘Devghar On Rent’, as glimpsed in the teaser.
Speaking about the film, director Swaroopp Sawant said, “Today, the air everywhere is filled with the celebration of Ganeshotsav. Since the word ‘Dev’ (God) is in the very title Devghar On Rent, I am truly delighted that the teaser has been released at Shri Chintamani’s Darbar. Though the story reflects today’s world, the spiritual thread within it is extremely significant. In the race of modern life, no one can deny the existence of God. Even if someone says ‘Devghar On Rent’ today, God will never cast them away, not even for a moment. As the saintly verse says, ‘Whose body is this? Who makes it function, if not Hari?’ – that divine power takes care of everyone, whether rich or poor. With its dramatic storyline as well as entertaining elements, this film will hold the audience’s attention till the very end,” shared producer Poonam Chaudhari Patil.
The film features Nikhil Chavan, Ankit Mohan, Bhau Kadam, Shashank Shende, Ashwini Chavare, Vaibhav Chavan, Suresh Vishwakarma, Anil Nagarkar, Chetan Raikar, Siddheshwar Zadbuke, and Gautami Patil among others.
