A special screening of Jhund was held recently. Jitendra Joshi, noted Marathi actor, was among those who saw Jhund at the special screening and was captivated by the tale. Joshi praised Nagraj Manjule and the cast and crew of Jhund in an Instagram Live.

In a message to his fans, Jitendra Joshi said this is Manjule’s first foray into the Hindi cinema industry, and he would like to congratulate everyone that such a brilliant Marathi director is now a member of the mainstream show business.

Furthermore, he stated that Manjule is one of those directors who portrays a film as it is, without make-up, in its raw and real state. The beauty of his talent is that he doesn’t conceal anything. Jitendra Joshi said that he had never seen Amitabh Bachchan as he was depicted by Manjule. He jokingly said that the filmmaker did not let Big B do his “Bachchan giri.”

At the end of the day, it’s about the emotion that triumphs over everything else. It is an experience that everybody should go through. It is a masterpiece and this is going to make a lot of heads turn. I am very happy to have watched this film,” said Dhanush.
