Come Shravan and the festive season begins! In this auspicious month of the Hindu calendar everyone’s favourite festival Gokulashtami arrives.

Popular composer-director Avdhoot Gupte who has made films like Zenda and Maurya in the past will soon be releasing his latest film called Kanha.

The event was attended by who’s who of the world of politics like Praful Patel, Amar Singh and the CM of Maharashtra, Devendra Fadnavis.
