Shreyas Talpade to make a comeback in M-Town

The actor says that lack of good scripts kept him away from M-Town but he has decided to make a comeback with his home production
Shreyas Talpade to make a comeback in M-Town
Actor Shreyas Talpade, who is currently enjoying being part of the 100-crore club, is making it big in Bollywood. He is part of the Golmaal and Housefull franchises and now even Malamaal Weekly. However, closer home M-Town seems to be disappointed with the snub the actor has given to filmmakers here.
Shreyas was last seen in his home production Sanai Chaughade in 2008 in a cameo role romancing Sai Tamhankar.

Shreyas says, ���������Honestly even I am missing Marathi films. But nothing interesting has come my way. On the other hand, in Bollywood I have been getting a lot of interesting offers and excellent opportunities to star in several big banner films.���������
The actor, who shot to fame with the Marathi play All The Best in the 90s admits that nothing much happened post Pachadlela and Savarkhed - Ek Gaav in the Marathi film industry. The actor says that he has plans for his comeback in M-Town. ���������I waited for a long time for something interesting to come my way. But finally now I have decided to produce a good Marathi film and act in it. I have short-listed three scripts.���������
The actor is in good terms with his Apna Sapna Money Money and Housefull-2 co-star Riteish Deshmukh. He says, ���������Riteish and I share a great chemistry. In fact, we complement each other and even improvise on scenes together. He is like a brother.��������� He further adds, ���������Even Riteish is planning to do a Marathi film. I am thinking of approaching him and I am sure he will not refuse.���������
Bollywood is definitely keeping him busy. The actor replaced Sharman Joshi in Golmaal-2, Rahul Khanna in Housefull-2 and now he will replace Riteish in the Malamaal Weekly sequel ��������� Kamaal Dhamaal Malamaal. ���������When people look for a replacement, they are definitely looking for something better. I hope to deliver better with every film.��������� So is he looking for another 100-crore hit? ���������The 100-crore is a fad these days, but again 3 Idiots has already set a record of 200 crore so definitely that remains the target for all.���������

Mahesh Kothare (actor/director): I had approached Shreyas twice but he wasn���������t sure whether he wanted to share his goodwill with other production houses. He wants to produce Marathi films. I spoke to him the other day and he has finalised three scripts. I am keen to watch him back in action in a Marathi film.
Rajiv Patil (filmmaker): Shreyas is a good friend and I am happy for what he has achieved. I enjoyed working with him in Savarkhed ��������� Ek Gaav and his home production Sanai Chaughade. But yes, the audience is definitely missing him in Marathi films. He has his viewership here.
Samruddhi Pore (filmmaker): Today, out of 20 nominations, Marathi films easily take 13 nominations and are consistently bagging awards. Shreyas shouldn���������t give a cold shoulder to Marathi as he started with Marathi films and theatre. He should, in fact, use his star power to benefit Marathi films. I have immense respect for an actor like Nana Patekar who has not discriminated between languages while doing films.
Sai Tamhankar (actress): I definitely miss him but I am sure he will work in M-Town if something interesting comes his way.
