Prashant Damle makes web-series debut with Eka Kaleche Mani

Veteran Marathi theatre, film and television actor Prashant Damle is all set to make his web-series debut with Eka Kaleche Mani (2022). This is also the first web-series for Jio Studios, which is producing the show along with Mahesh Manjrekar. 

The credit for the concept goes to Hrishi Manohar while well-known actor Om Bhutkar has written the show, alongside Siddharth Mahashabde. Atul Ketkar is the series director.

Along with Damle, the web-series also stars Hruta Durgule, Vandana Gupte, Poornima Manohar, Hrishi Manohar, Hruturaj Shinde, Sameer Choughule and Vishakha Subhedar. 

The teaser indicates that the show is light-hearted where Damle, who plays Mr Kale, has displayed his sense of humour. Along with the Kales, we are also given a glimpse of their neighbors.

Throwing light on the subject of the show, Manjrekar said in a statement, “We are glad to have produced this web show. Every parent wants their children to be as successful as them and decide their life’s path. But this is where the fun lies in this show because the likes and dislikes of today’s generation are spectacular and different, which gives rise to conflict and fun. This show will depict the fun between old versus news.” 

Damle began acting in Marathi theatre from the late 1970s. Some of his famous plays include Moruchi Mavashi, Bahurupi and Tu Tithe Mee. His last film appearance was in Mumbai Pune Mumbai 3 (2018), which starred Swwapnil Joshi and Mukta Barve.
