Phulvara Marathi Movie: Zee Studios and Director Ravi Jadhav Team Up Once Again

The rhythm of Lavani, the flair of folk art, and the authentic culture of Maharashtra are set to return to the big screen. After sixteen years, Zee Studios and director Ravi Jadhav are reuniting to bring another Lavani-centric film to audiences. Following their iconic hit Natarang, their new project Phulvara aims to unfold a fresh story centered on traditional folk art. The film is officially scheduled for a grand theatrical release on Makar Sankranti, January 14, 2027.

Poster Generates Widespread Curiosity

The newly released announcement poster has significantly raised anticipation among moviegoers. It features a mask of Goddess Ambabai on a puja thali with a message encouraging viewers to support authentic Marathi Lavani. The emphasis on traditional folk art hints at a story exploring cultural roots and modern connections. However, specific plot details, character arcs, and the official star cast remain top secret for now.

Music and Creative Team

The film’s music is composed by Harsh-Vijay, the talented duo from the folk art troupe ‘The Folk Akhyan’. The story, screenplay, dialogues, and song lyrics have all been written by Ishwar Tarabai Andhare. Phulvara combines a deep study of traditional folk heritage with a fresh musical perspective aimed at younger generations. Beyond stage performances, the movie promises a thoughtful look at the evolving form of Lavani over the decades.

Director and Studio Share Insights

Director Ravi Jadhav explained that making another Tamasha-based film after Natarang is a major creative responsibility. He noted that while Natarang was set in the 1970s, Phulvara takes place in 2015, highlighting how the art form evolved over fifty years while artists continued their dedicated struggle to preserve it.

Bavesh Janavlekar, Business Head of Zee Studios Marathi, expressed great confidence in the project. He stated that the studio is excited to start the new year with a promising film that presents the true essence of Marathi culture.

Produced by Zee Studios and Athansh Communications, Phulvara will hit theaters nationwide on January 14, 2027. Further details regarding the cast and production will be announced soon.
