Q: Why have you chosen this title for your film? Is it a bilingual film ?
A: The reason for choosing this title is only because of the popular inspiring slogan meant to boost the morale of our today's youth. I felt that our youth need to be told about the origin of this ancient sports - Wrestling, which has its reference even in our Indian mythology. How

much of hard work is there during training and how beneficial it is for health, I wanted to convey that message.

Q: How different this film will be from traditional Marathi film ?
A: The film has a good story and the screenplay and is strong enough to hold the audience to their seats, throughout the film. The producer of the film Dr. Anil Saxena was himself of the opinion to offer this kind of subject to inspire today's youth and for that reason we opted an actor like Siddharth Jadhav. Listen to the music and watch those four Wrestling ties in my film and you will be convinced about my artiste selection.

Q: How did Siddharth respond to this role?
A: Siddharth is a versatile actor now. He took up as a challenge to play this role. On the sets, he has worked very hard. Even while shooting, we had made arrangement for his Temporary Gym, to boost his morale.

Q: What about marketing of this film?
A: We are making all efforts to market the film well , so as to reach maximum people. We have also chosen online publicity, taking into account the net savvy people.

Q: What about the release date ?
A: The film will be released in Pune and other parts of Maharashtra on 15th October 2010 and for Mumbai we have scheduled the release date as 15th October 2010.
