Dr. Amol Kolhe speaks on his debut in films 

Dr. Shreeram Lagoo, Dr. Girish Oak and now Dr. Amol Kolhe. Yes, we are talking about one more addition of an actor in Marathi film industry from the medical fraternity. Since his childhood Amol has been passionate about acting and went on to prove his skills in this area, while he was in school and college. But, at the same time he realized that education was equally important. So, he tried to balance on both the sides. Today, in the society he is recognized as a Doctor and an actor. For the past few years, his sincerity while making his academic career did not deter him from his acting passion.

After proving his worth on stage, he made his entry with a big bang on small screen through Nitin Chandrakant Desai's mega serial 'Raja Shivchhatrapati' and that too in the lead role. Through this role, he presented the true image of the great king to the young generation, who had only read about his countless deeds through history books. This role also gave him worldwide recognition. Thereafter, Amol got another chance to show his acting skills in Star Pravah's serial 'Olakh', where he had to perform the role of a business tycoon's son, searching for his own identity. This new role helped him to come out of the image of the historical character.

Progressing towards his ultimate goal, Amol soon found his entry into the big screen through Kedar Shinde's 10th film 'On Duty 24 Taas'. "Playing the lead role of a duty bound Police officer and that too under the direction of Kedar, was a great experience," says Amol.
But, he is all praise for Vijay Chavan, who according to him is a fantastic actor, as far as comedy is concerned. When asked about his sudden exit from the serial 'Olakh', all that Dr. Amol has to say that the happenings were not sudden but went on as per the original script.
Even otherwise, Amol seems to be more focused on Big screen and is surely taking a break from small screen. His another film 'Aaghat' based on medical profession has also been released, where he plays an important role of a psychiatrist. Being a committed actor, he would always be looking for good roles and whether they come from theatre, small screen or big screen, it does not matter to him.

Recently, we heard about Nitin Desai's mega film based on Shivchhatrapati Shivaji's life, for which the auditions are going on. What if Dr. Amol gets a chance to play that lead role? Surely, he will take up that big challenge. Looking at the current trend of Marathi films, receiving international recognition and the contribution of all those Marathi actors displaying their talent, the day is not far for Dr. Amol Kolhe to prove his mettle.

अमोल कोल्हे हटके आहे.
अमोलला 'राजा शिवछत्रपती' मध्ये बघितल्यानंतर असं वाटलं नव्हत की तो केदार शिंदेच्या चित्रपटातून दिसेल पण संजय सूरकर, गजेंद्र अहिरे यांच्या चित्रपटात नक्की दिसेन अशी खात्री होती.... पण अमोल कोल्हे हटके आहे...
