सावरकर दर्शन प्रतिष्ठानच्या वतीने स्वातंत्र्यवीर सावरकर लिखित 'संगीत संन्यस्त खड्ग' हे नाटक नव्या स्वरूपात रंगमंचावर येत असून त्याचा  शुभारंभाचा प्रयोग ८ जुलै रोजी सायं. ६.३० वाजता  रवींद्र नाट्य मंदिर येथे होत आहे, अशी माहिती प्रतिष्ठानचे सचिव व  या नाटकाचे निर्माते रवींद्र  माधव  साठे यांनी पत्रकार परिषदेत दिली. 

स्व. सुधीर फडके यांनी स्थापन केलेली सावरकर दर्शन प्रतिष्ठान ही संस्था स्वा. सावरकरांच्या विचारांचा प्रचार व प्रसार करत असून याचाच एक भाग म्हणून हे नाटक पुन्हा रंगभूमीवर आणत आहोत. सावरकरांचे विचार, साहित्य आजच्या पिढी पुढे आणणे हे आमचे  मुख्य उद्दिष्ट्य आहे. हे नाटक कालसुसंगत आहे म्हणूनच याचे महाराष्ट्रभर १०० प्रयोग करण्याचा आमचा मानस आहे आणि त्याकरिता तिकीटदर ३०० /२००/१०० सर्वसामान्यांना परवडतील असे ठेवण्यात आल्याचे रवींद्र  माधव साठे यांनी सांगितले. हे नाटक नव्या पिढीतील तरूण  सादर करत आहेत असेही साठे यांनी सांगितले. 

नाट्यसंपदा कला मंचाचे अनंत पणशीकर हे नाटकाचे सहनिर्माते असून मराठी रंगभूमीवरील प्रसिद्ध कलाकार व दिग्दर्शक ऋषीकेश जोशी यांनी नाटकाची रंगावृत्ती आणि दिग्दर्शन केले आहे.  संगीत कौशल इनामदार यांचे आहे.  

या नाटकाचे सहनिर्माते अनंत पणशीकर यावेळी म्हणाले,‘सावरकरांचे भाषासौंदर्य आणि त्यांच्या लेखांतून दर्शवणारी भव्य दृकश्राव्यता मला कायम भुरळ घालते. हे नाटक त्याचं उत्तम उदाहरण आहे. व्यावसायिक गणित मांडताना आम्हाला सावरकर  प्रतिष्ठानची खूप मदत झाली.  

‘अहिंसेचे तत्वज्ञान’ आणि ‘राष्ट्रहित’ यातील द्वंद्व म्हणजे 'संगीत संन्यस्त खड्ग' हे नाटक. अडीच हजार वर्षांपूर्वी सांगितलेले या नाटकातले विचार आजही अगदी तंतोतंत खरे ठरतात. ते  विचार, आदर्श या नाटकातून नवीन पिढीपर्यंत पोहचवण्याचा आमचा निर्धार असल्याचे दिग्दर्शक ऋषीकेश जोशी यांनी यावेळी सांगितले.  

मयुरा रानडे, ओंकार कुलकर्णी, केतकी चैतन्य, ओमप्रकाश शिंदे आणि ऋषिकेश जोशी आदि कलाकारांचा या नाटकात समावेश आहे. भव्य आणि आकर्षक सेट्स, देखणी वेशभूषा, कलाकारांचा अभिनय आणि सावरकरांचे तेजस्वी विचार ही 'संगीत संन्यस्त खड्ग'  या नाटकाची वैशिष्ट्ये  आहेत. 

१९३१ साली मा. दीनानाथ मंगेशकर यांनी हे नाटक रंगमंचावर आणले होते. यातील  'शतजन्म शोधताना’, ‘मर्मबंधातली ठेव ही’ , ‘सुकतात ही जगी या’.. अशी गाणी स्वतः दीनानाथांनी आपल्या गायकीने आणि संगीताने  अजरामर केली आहेत. 

८ जुलै १९१० रोजी  स्वा. सावरकरांनी मार्सेलिस येथे ब्रिटिश जहाजातून जगप्रसिध्द उडी मारली होती. या  दिवसाचे औचित्य साधून प्रतिष्ठानने ८ जुलै रोजी शुभारंभाचा प्रयोग योजला आहे. हे नाटक नव्या स्वरूपात व्यावसायिक रंगमंचावर येत असून  देशात जिथे जिथे  मराठी समाज आहे तेथे हे नाटक पोहोचेल. याचे  १०० प्रयोग करण्याचा प्रतिष्ठानचा  संकल्प आहे, असे प्रतिपादन  रवींद्र साठे यांनी केले. 

नेपथ्य - संदेश बेंद्रे, प्रकाशयोजना- अमोघ फडके, नृत्ये - सोनिया परचुरे, वेशभूषा- मयूरा रानडे, रंगभूषा- श्रीकांत देसाई  यांची आहे.  सूत्रधार दिपक गोडबोले आहेत. या नाटकास अधिकाधिक लोकांनी प्रतिसाद  द्यावा असे आवाहन प्रतिष्ठानच्या वतीने करण्यात आले आहे.

गाडी नंबर १७६०’मध्ये सुहास जोशींनी साकारले ॲक्शन सीन्स

 गाडी नंबर १७६०’मध्ये सुहास जोशींनी साकारले ॲक्शन सीन्स

तन्वी फिल्म्स प्रस्तुत ‘गाडी नंबर १७६०’ या चित्रपटाचा ट्रेलर नुकताच प्रेक्षकांच्या भेटीला आला असून, त्यातील रहस्य, ट्विस्ट्स आणि टर्न्समुळे प्रेक्षकांची उत्सुकता शिगेला पोहोचली आहे. ट्रेलरमध्ये वेधक दृश्यांबरोबरच एक खास गोष्ट लक्ष वेधून घेते, ती म्हणजे ज्येष्ठ अभिनेत्री सुहास जोशी यांचे ॲक्शन सीन्स. ७७ वर्षीय सुहास जोशी या चित्रपटात महत्त्वपूर्ण भूमिकेत झळकणार असून विशेष म्हणजे काही ॲक्शन सीन्स त्यांनी स्वतः साकारले आहेत. 

याबद्दल सुहास जोशी म्हणतात, ''वय कितीही असो, जेव्हा भूमिका मनापासून आवडते, तेव्हा तिच्यात पूर्णपणे झोकून देणं गरजेचं वाटतं. ‘गाडी नंबर १७६०’ मधील माझी भूमिका वेगळी आहे आणि त्यासाठी ॲक्शन सीन करणे हा एक नवीन आणि  उत्साही अनुभव होता. मनातली जिद्द आणि अभिनयावरील प्रेम हेच मला पुन्हा कॅमेऱ्यासमोर घेऊन येतं. टीमचा पाठिंबा आणि वातावरण इतकं सकारात्मक होतं की, ॲक्शन सीन करायला भीतीच वाटली नाही.”

दिग्दर्शक म्हणतात, ‘’ सुहास मॅडम म्हणजे एक प्रेरणा आहेत. त्यांच्या वयाचा विचार करता आम्ही बॉडी डबल वापरण्याचा पर्याय ठेवला होता. पण त्यांनी तो साफ नाकारला. ‘मी स्वतः अ‍ॅक्शन सीन करणार.’ त्यांच्या आवाजात इतका आत्मविश्वास होता की आम्हाला काही क्षण अवाक व्हायला झालं. या वयातही त्यांची ऊर्जा, मेहनतीची तयारी आणि कामाबद्दलचा आदर पाहून आम्हा सर्वांना एक नवीच प्रेरणा मिळाली. खरंच, त्या आमच्यासाठी केवळ एक अभिनेत्री नाहीत, तर एक आदर्श आहेत.”

या चित्रपटाचे निर्माते कैलाश सोराडी आणि विमला सोराडी असून, लेखन व दिग्दर्शनाची धुरा योगिराज संजय गायकवाड यांनी सांभाळली आहे. प्रथमेश परब, शुभंकर तावडे, प्रियदर्शिनी इंदलकर, सुहास जोशी, प्रसाद खांडेकर, श्रीकांत यादव आणि शशांक शेंडे यांच्या प्रमुख भूमिका असलेला हा चित्रपट येत्या ४ जुलै रोजी प्रेक्षकांच्या भेटीला येणार आहे.

सुहास जोशींच्या अशा समर्पणातून त्यांची अभिनयावरील निष्ठा अधोरेखित होते आणि नव्या पिढीसमोरही एक प्रेरणादायी उदाहरण ठरते. आता चित्रपटात त्यांची नेमकी भूमिका काय असेल, हे पाहाणं औत्सुक्याचं ठरणार आहे.

Rajeev Khinchi, celebrated for his brilliance as a choreographer and show director, now steps into the cinematic limelight as a dynamic film producer with a mission to shape meaningful, globally resonant cinema

Acclaimed show director and choreographer Rajeev Khinchi, whose artistic mastery has graced the world's biggest stages from Bollywood blockbusters to international extravaganzas is now commanding the silver screen as a producer with his debut cinematic venture, "Karmaanya – Rise of the Demigod". The film, a powerful fusion of Indian mythology, human philosophy, and contemporary storytelling, marks a turning point in his creative journey and signals his bold vision as a producer.

As he grows his presence as a producer, Rajeev plans to collaborate with diverse storytellers, nurture fresh talent, and take Indian narratives to international platforms.

"As a storyteller, I’ve always believed that movement has the power to evoke emotion — now, as a producer, I want to create cinema that moves hearts, minds, and generations. With Karmaanya – Rise of the Demigod, my mission is to blend the soul of Indian storytelling with a global cinematic language that inspires, elevates, and connects us all" says Rajeev
