A ‘Mhorkya’ means the person who takes the crowd ahead, a leader. Amar Bharat Deokar is debuting in feature films with ‘Mhorkya’ as a writer, director, actor, and co-producer. After being screened at a number of film festivals across the globe ‘Mohrkya’ will be screened across Maharashtra commercially, on 24th January 2020.
It talks about a journey of a fourteen-year-old sheep header called ‘Ashya’. An aspiring leader who is ostracised due to his caste and profession. This innocent village boy wants to become a leader of the school parade but he is discouraged by everyone. He has faith in his mentor and his efforts. His journey is a metaphorical representation of the system in our society.
While the movie is set for release during Republic Day, this film will celebrate a sentiment of patriotism, courage, and determination in youth. The film won the National Award in 65th National Film Awards 2018 for ‘Best Children’s Film’. The director Amar Bharat Deokar belongs to the theatre background and his short film ‘Identity’ too bagged many national-international awards in short film festivals.
