This classic film chronicles the life of Tukaram (17th C.), one of Maharashtra’s most popular saint poets, activating the 20th century resonances of his turning away from courtly Sanskrit towards vernacular rhythms of religious poetry.

In a tale that dared to challenge tradition, Aage Badho follows the heartbreaking journey of Sarla, a bride whose joy turns to sorrow as she becomes a widow on her wedding day. Trapped in a life of torment by her cruel stepmother, Sarla attempts to end it all, only to be rescued by the compassionate Uday. Can Uday help Sarla defy societal norms and embrace a second chance at love and happiness, marching ahead towards a future free from the shackles of a regressive past?

Sakhu gets persecuted by her hateful mother-in-law Mhalsakaku and her equally evil sister-in-law Durga while her weak-willed husband does little to defend her.

It's the story of a boy who finds enlightenment by experiencing religious hipocrisy and dogmatism. Dnyaneshwar liberated the "divine knowledge" locked in the Sanskrit language to bring that knowledge into Prakrit (Marathi) and made it available to the common man.

This mythological tells of the playful child Krishna (Marathe) and his battle against the evil King Kamsa (Ganpatrao) who rules the city of Gokul. The stories, mainly from the popular 'Bhagvat' and 'Vishnu Purana', also show Krishna vanquishing Keshi (Haribhau), Kamsa's general who arrives in disguise to capture him. Finally, when Kamsa unleashes rain and flood over the city (in a departure from the original legend where Indra caused the natural disaster), Krishna raises the mountain Govardhan over the people to protect them.
