Founded in 2016 with just 32 silk sarees, Pratha has grown into a celebrated brand offering thousands of sarees today. With over 4,500 brides styled under her expert hands in the bridal industry, Kavita’s deep love for sarees, her artistic sense of colour, and admiration for traditional craftsmanship led to the birth of Pratha.

Following the success of the elegant 2,500 sq. ft. flagship store on Bhandarkar Road, Pune, Pratha’s new two-storey, 3,000 sq. ft. Thane outlet now welcomes saree lovers. The store showcases sarees from over 40 weaving clusters across India, each handpicked personally by Kavita from traditional weavers. Over the years, Pratha sarees have been worn by celebrated personalities like Renuka Shahane, Mrinal Kulkarni, Anuradha Paudwal, Amruta Khanvilkar, Sai Tamhankar, Spruha Joshi, Parna Pethe, Shivani Sonar, Shivani Rangole, and Swanandi Tikekar.

Speaking about the brand’s journey, Kavita Koparkar said, “Pratha is not just a saree brand—it is a celebration of Indian heritage and feminine grace. With our Thane expansion, our goal is to take the grandeur of Indian handloom sarees beyond Maharashtra, across India, and to the global stage.”

The brand currently employs over 50 women, and both stores are known for their calm, luxurious ambience. Notably, the Thane store features a unique and beautifully designed reception area, a first-of-its-kind concept for a saree boutique. Every saree enthusiast can find the perfect handloom creation here, suited to their personal style and budget.

#ManojBajpayee leads as the sharp-witted Zende, locked in a tense game of cat and mouse with Jim Sarbh’s charming yet elusive Carl Bhojraj. Joined by veterans #SachinKhedekar and #BhalchandraKadam, #HarishDudhade, #OnkarRaut, #BharatSavale, #NitinBhajan as Zende’s trusted team, #GirijaOak and #VaibhavMangale in pivotal roles, their camaraderie and witty banter keep the pursuit as entertaining as it is intense. The high-stakes hunt races through cities and culminates in Goa, where sharp instincts and seamless teamwork lead to Carl’s dramatic capture.

Talking about his experience, Manoj Bajpayee shares, “What fascinated me about Inspector Zende was that he wasn’t chasing glory — he was just doing his job, yet caught one of the most notorious criminals twice. His bravery, humour, and that unmistakable Mumbai flavour make his journey truly inspiring. Meeting him felt like stepping into a storybook, with a lifetime of tales to tell. Playing him let me dive into a world that’s as gritty as it is entertaining. The trailer is only a glimpse — the film takes you right into the heart of it. I’m glad his story is finally getting the spotlight it deserves, and that too globally on Netflix.”

Director #ChinmayDMandlekar added, “Inspector Zende’s real-life chase had all the ingredients of a gripping film: a larger-than-life cop, a slippery antagonist, and an unforgettable era of Mumbai. But what really stayed with me was the camaraderie, the small moments, and the quirks of the people involved. The trailer hints at the chase, but the film lets you live every beat of it. I can’t wait for audiences to experience it on Netflix.”

Two escapes. One relentless hero cop. And an untold chase that rewrote crime history. This September, the Swimsuit Killer meets his match twice over.

Watch the trailer now. Stream Inspector Zende beginning September 5, only on Netflix.
