After much ado, the makers of Ankush Choudhary’s much-awaited film ‘Maharashtra Shaheer’ have unveiled the trailer of the noted folk artist Shahir Krushnarao Sable.

The film has created a buzz in the film industry for its high budget production values and also because it is seen to be a musical extravaganza based on the life of a multi-faceted folk artist.

The trailer begins with the most popular folk song of yesteryear Maharashtra Bhumi Bahuguni… which gives you chills and reaffirms the high quality of the production value of the film. “Stop Mr Sable, You Cant sing like this… The word Maharashtra cannot come so many times in the song…” Shahir is stopped from singing after those preliminary words hailing the culture of Maharashtra. Rebellious Shahir gives the person back saying, “Then what I am expected to narrate about the birth of Chhatrapati Shivaji? Where did he bear, in Delhi or Calcutta?” he replies.

There are many such scenes in the films depicted to showcase various factors of Shahir’s personality right from his tough and firm mindset to rebellious thoughts.




In another scene, he fights with his mother for his love of singing. “Even if you hit me hard, I will not give up singing…” he warns his mother. One more scene comes with him warning a political leader by saying, “We are artists, not helpless stooge.” The trailer throws up various aspects of his personality creating curiosity about the film.

Ankush Chaudhari said that the producer and director have succeeded in producing a very beautiful biopic. “It is a must-watch film for all of us. We should also ensure that it is watched by the youngsters. It will help us in taking folk art, and folk culture to the next generation. It is the symbol of pride for the nation, Maharashtra, and the language. It reflects the ideology, thoughts, and passion of the Shahir. We have added a new song that was under the wrap during his lifespan. It is liked by music lovers. I am certain that the film is going to give you an exceptional experience on its release on April 28."
