Plot

The Phulambrikar family plans on converting their family's ancestral property in the village into a hotel because the village is very soon to be promoted as a tourist destination by the government. However, incidents continue to occur after the "Ekda Yeun Tar Bagha Hotel" is operational. People are dying one after the other in the hotel. To avoid legal complications, the family keeps burying bodies in the land.

Cast

Production

In mid-September 2022, producers Paritosh Painter and Rajesh Mohanty announced Ekda Yeun Tar Bagha along with six other films under the banner of Ideas The Entertainment Company and SR Enterprises.[14]

The principal photography started in early October 2022 at Gaganbawada Ghat in Kolhapur.[15] Speaking about the location, Khandekar said, "I often used to travel through Gaganbawda Ghat from Kolhapur to Konkan. So I wanted to capture the natural and scenic beauty of Gaganbawda Ghat and present it to the viewers. Hence, the shoot of the movie was completed at this location instead of in London."[16] This is Sambherao's first film in a leading role and Khandekar's first feature film as a director.

Release

On 18 September 2023, the first official motion poster featuring Girish Kulkarni, Tejaswini Pandit, Prasad Khandekar, Namrata Sambherao, Sayaji Shinde, Onkar Bhojane, Bhalchandra Kadam and Vishakha Subhedar was released, initially slated for release on 24 November 2023.[17][6] The one-minute-long teaser was released on 20 October 2023.[18] On 13 November 2023, the maker announced the new release date of 8 December 2023 to avoid clashing with other Hindi and Marathi films.[19][4] The almost three-minute-long official trailer was released two weeks prior to the film. The trailer garnered positive feedback from the audience.[20][21]

During the promotions, actor-director Khandekar expressed his disappointment that the movie was not getting theatres after its release.[22] The issue was taken up in the winter session of the Legislative Assembly on 7 December 2023, by the leader of the Legislative Council, Pravin Darekar. He said, "There is an artist named Prasad Khandekar from Borivali. His movie, Ekda Yeun Tar Bagha, is releasing on 8th December. But some grandfathers and bosses in the cinema do not allow their Marathi movies to get cinemas. Khandekar is a Marathi youth from an ordinary family. Cinema halls should be made available for his Marathi film immediately. It is requested that the Chief Minister and Deputy Chief Minister look into this."[23] Following that, Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis assured that the theatre would be opened, saying, "Prasad Khandekar is a very talented artist. He has consistently ruled the hearts of people through comedy fairs. Legal action will also be taken as necessary if their Marathi movies do not get cinemas."[24][25]
