However, recently, Rahi Anil Barve, gearing up for the release of his next film Mayasabha, slated to hit theatres this Friday, expressed a more sombre view on whether things are truly changing, even as he fully supports his fellow filmmakers. In an exclusive chat with SCREEN, Barve said, “I know one thing for sure: nobody wants to support you. Sometimes I’m shocked because this film should have been shut down at least 50 times. Rahi Anil Barve clarified that Mayasabha is entirely distinct from his previous cult classic, Tumbbad. And it is extremely risky to create something original in today’s times.
