Makers of Mahesh Manjrekar’s Punha Shivajiraje Bhosale SLAM Everest’s Public Notice – “False, misleading, and without basis”

Bollywood Hungama was the first one to report on July 12 that Everest Entertainment published a public notice in Atul Mohan’s Complete Cinema magazine in the June 28 – July 5, 2025 issue, informing the public and industry that they have the rights to the 2009 cult Marathi film Mi Shivajiraje Bhosale Boltoy. The notice was published after the teaser of Mahesh Manjrekar’s Punha Shivajiraje Bhosale was dropped online. The film is all set to release on Diwali and is perceived as a spiritual sequel to Mi Shivajiraje Bhosale Boltoy.

This super-thoughtful and sensitive documentary also interviews the “stars” of other well-known documentaries. Arthur Agee was a 14-year-old basketball prodigy from a tough neighbourhood in Chicago when film-makers arrived to shoot Hoop Dreams. Jesse Friedman spent 13 years in jail after he and his father Arnold pleaded guilty in 1998 to sexually abusing children – a conviction put into doubt by the 2003 film Capturing the Friedmans.
