'Paani' trailer: Addinath Kothare starrer to shed light on a pressing issue in Maharashtra-Watch

Priyanka Chopra Jonas is currently gearing up for the theatrical release of her National Award winning Marathi film 'Paani' on October 18. The film is set to release in cinemas on October 18. While the teaser of 'Paani' has received widespread appreciation, the makers have now launched the trailer of the film.

The trailer gives a glimpse into the struggle of a young man working tirelessly to find a solution to the issue of water shortage in Marathwada.
'Paani' is the story of Hanumant Kendre, who has come to be known as a 'jaldoot' in the state, and the audience will see Addinath M Kothare essaying the role on the big screen soon.

In the trailer, you can see that there is no water in the village and the youngster's prospects of marriage also suffer due to this. Whether he succeeds in his quest to tackle the water crisis in his village and whether he ends up getting married or not are questions that will be answered in the film.

Neha Barjatya, the late Rajjat Barjatya, Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Dr Madhu Chopra have produced the film, and Mahesh Kothare and Siddharth Chopra are the associate producers on the project.

Talking about the film, Addinath said, "It’s difficult to express my joy in words. I am thankful to everyone who has been part of my journey. It was challenging to wear multiple hats - writer, director and actor - for this project, but the process was rewarding. I am confident that the viewers will like the film. Through Paani, even if we succeed in creating awareness around water shortage in a few people, we'll be happy about it. We are also eternally thankful to Shankar Mahadevan who lent his voice to our film's title track, and to Aamir Khan Productions for their continued support."



On her part, Priyanka, who is the founder and promoter of Purple Pebble Pictures, adds, “Water scarcity is a pressing issue, and Paani highlights the need to act. I’m proud to be part of this meaningful project. At Purple Pebble Pictures, we always strive to support stories that matter, and I believe Paani will strike a chord with the audience . The whole team has worked so hard and I can’t wait for everyone to see the film and feel its impact.”

Besides Addinath, who has also directed the film, Paani will see the likes of Rucha Vaidya, Subodh Bhave, Rajit Kapur, Kishore Kadam, Nitin Dixit, Sachin Goswami, Mohanabai, Shripad Joshi, Vikas Pandurang Patil and others in prominent roles.
