Digpal Lanjekar Offers Heartfelt Garhāṇe Prayer for Daryabhavani Cast and Crew at Auspicious Muhurat Ceremony!

The much-awaited Daryabhavani, written and directed by Digpal Lanjekar, marked its auspicious beginning with a deeply emotional and unique moment. At the film’s muhurat ceremony, Lanjekar performed a traditional garhāṇe — a heartfelt invocation seeking blessings not only for the success of the film but also for the happiness, well-being and satisfaction of every actor, technician and team member associated with Daryabhavani.

Through this special prayer, gratitude was expressed towards every individual who has contributed to bringing the film to life, both on and off screen. The heartfelt gesture made the muhurat more than just the ceremonial beginning of a film; it became a beautiful celebration of unity, gratitude and togetherness.

Daryabhavani is not merely a historical film; it is an ambitious cinematic endeavour that seeks to bring to the big screen Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj’s visionary maritime strategy and the extraordinary valour of the Maratha Navy. As this grand historical journey begins, Digpal Lanjekar’s decision to place the entire team at the heart of his prayer has emerged as one of the most memorable highlights of the film’s muhurat.

The upcoming film is produced by Prakash Patil, Dr. Ashok Jiwatode of Shri Tirupati Balaji Chitra, and Pawan Sadamwar and Suraj Sadamwar of Elevate Films, with Pushkar Yawalkar serving as co-producer.

The muhurat ceremony was attended by the entire team of Daryabhavani with great enthusiasm. Amidst the traditional garhāṇe, a strong sense of gratitude and prayers for everyone’s well-being, Daryabhavani embarked on its new cinematic journey in an atmosphere filled with positivity and togetherness.

Following the success of Farzand, Fatteshikast, Pawankhind, Sher Shivraj, Subhedar and Ranapati Shivray, Daryabhavani is the seventh film in Digpal Lanjekar’s much-loved ‘Shri Shivraj Ashtak’ series. The film has already generated considerable anticipation among audiences, who are eagerly looking forward to witnessing this grand chapter of Maratha history on the big screen.
