 Raja Shivchattrapati now on BIG SCREEN

Iconic Chandrakant Productions Pvt. Ltd to launch ‘Raja Shivchattrapati’ - the film and soon to come up with an international movie on the life of the Maratha King

Mumbai, April 4, 2012: Keeping in mind with the overwhelming response and constant demand of the viewers of the popular television serial ‘Raja Shivchattrapati’, Iconic Chandrakant Productions Pvt. Ltd (ICPPL) to launch ‘Raja Shivchattrapati’ - the film on BIG SCREEN on coming April 13, 2012.

The film was first announced on the auspicious day of Gudi Padwa – a fitting tribute to the glorious chapter in the Indian history. 

The history of India is incomplete without the history of Marathas and Shivaji is the centre of that history. Shivaji advocated the ideology of Hindavi swarajya. He established a competent and progressive civil rule with the help of well regulated and disciplined military and well structured administrative organizations. His respect for all religions made him a truly great king.

The television show which was aired for over 200 hours was shot by epic technology with a vision of film quality output. It was a mammoth task for the team of ICPPL to convert the entire show into a film of 2 hrs 14 mins. Except shoot, the complete technical process had to be reworked like Dolby Digital, sound mix, colour corrections, graphics to mention few. ‘Raja Shivchattrapati’, the film includes eight major incidences of Shivaji which created history like Birth of Shivaji, oath taken for Hindiva Swarajya at Rohideshwar temple, defeat of Afzal Khan, siege of Panhala by Siddi Jauhar, battle of Pavan Khind, attack on Shaista Khan, arrest in Agra and escape and Coronation.  

The film comprises of hair raising four songs and will soon launch a Music DVD along with the most memorable dialogues and title track of the television show.  

Talking on the launch, Mr Nitin Chandrakant Desai, said ‘From the time I remember, in my school days I have always been fascinated by Shivaji Maharaj. Till date I’ve read a number of books and worked on several projects, stage shows on Shivaji Maharaj including ‘Raja Shivchattrapati’, a TV serial and got record rating from viewers. We are blessed with the golden opportunity to make this epic movie and a huge privilege. We continue to live by abiding to Maharaj’s core values as he has laid strong emphasis on culture, which is an integral part of every individual’s life. The desire for the launch of the movie shows our love for this great Warrior. And we are not going to stop here. In our effort to take Shivaji’s values and culture globally, we have started working on a big International 3D movie on Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj in Hindi and English for the global audience.”

For the past 400 years, this great Maratha warrior has been a source of inspiration and pride to the past generations and will continue to inspire millions of youngsters in the future…

Star-studded Opening Ceremony of the home ground of Pune Warriors India - Subrata Roy Sahara Stadium

~Telecast at 6.55 p.m on Sunday, April 8 on Sahara One, Firangi and Filmy ~

Pune, April 5, 2012: The much anticipated opening ceremony of the home ground of Pune Warriors India - Subrata Roy Sahara Stadium in Pune will see the coming together of India’s noted celebrities including Shahenshah of Bollywood, Shri Amitabh Bachchan and Bollywood divas of the likes of Dia Mirza, Sameera Reddy, Priyanka Chopra, Preity Zinta, Prachi Desai, Neha Dhupia, Bipasha Basu and Jacqueline Fernandes. The spectators shall also be captivated by a series of special performance that will have 8 forms of cultural dances that included Kashmiri, Bengali, Bhangra, U.P. dance, Rajasthani, Gujarati, South Indian and Lavani dance. The ceremony will be aired on Sunday, April 8 at 6.55 p.m on Sahara One, Filmy and Firangi.

The viewers will experience a remarkable treat of cultural performances with 120 dholak and trumpet players along with 100 lezim dancers showcasing their talent along with an act by 192 cultural dancers. The evening will then be fired up with spellbound performances by the Bollywood divas of the likes of Bipasha Basu, Priyanka Chopra, Diya Mirza, Preity Zinta, Sameera Reddy, Jacqueline Fernandes, Prachi Desai, and Neha Dhupia who will sizzle on the dance floor with their scintillating moves representing various regions of India.

The ‘Subrata Roy Sahara Stadium’ of Maharashtra Cricket Association is an architectural jewel and has been designed by Sir Michael Hopkins, whereas the structural design has been done by AKT, U.K., setting up a stellar example of civil engineering. Keeping in mind the comfort of spectators, superior and even quality tip-up seats have been imported from Australia and have been installed in all areas of the stadium. The stadium and the seating arrangement have been designed in such a way that an unobstructed view is assured from each and every location making it the best match viewing experience.

M/s Shapoorji Pallonji & Company Limited have constructed the stadium with the modern precast design and construction expertise imported from Dubai. One of the most important features of the stadium is its rain water drainage system. It has been observed that many times rain plays a spoilsport and even light showers for some time force organizers to alter the match size / duration. To overcome this problem, MCA has opted for sand based outfield developed departmentally with technical assistance from STRI Limited, U.K. This technology facilitates faster drainage of rain water and in order to achieve this, a geo-textile fabric has been installed above the ground and perforated PVC pipes have been laid down to slope in trenches. The system has been successfully tested. Even during the heavy showers, water on the outfield drained out fast making it ready for play again just in some minutes.
