Ashvini Bhave pitches in for Marathi theatre

With the world almost at a standstill with Covid-19 pandemic, Marathi theatrical productions had to cancel their shows, tours and the turmoil is yet to conclude.

This has severely impacted the financial situation of the members of the Marathi theatre, especially the backstage artistes and crew who survive on daily wages.

Veteran actress Ashvini Bhave who was last seen recently in The Raikar Case, has magnanimously come forward to support around 200 backstage artist of Marathi theatre productions financially for the next four months. Theatre celebrity and actor Prashant Damle who is actively involved in assisting Marathi backstage artistes thanked and recognised Ashvini Bhave’s endeavour on social media platforms.

According to sources, before stepping into her successful Bollywood career, Ashvini had briefly started her acting career with Marathi professional theatre and she continues to be rooted and in touch with all Marathi theatre units and artistes. The kind hearted actress is aware about how backstage artistes must have been facing financial crises hence she has voluntarily extended her support to stand for them in these testing times.
