What happens

Sangtye Aika (transl. Listen, I'll Tell You) is an Indian Marathi-language drama film directed and produced by Anant Mane, from a screenplay by Vyankatesh Madgulkar, and featuring Jayshree Gadkar, Dada Salvi, Chandrakant, Suryakant, Hansa Wadkar, Sulochana Latkar and Vasant Shinde. The film was a huge commercial hit, and ran for over 131 weeks in Pune's Vijayanand Theatre and screened for almost two years across cities in Maharashtra, a record that was later broken by the Hindi film Sholay. It served as the inspiration for Wadkar's 1970 autobiography of the same name. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
