Swwapnil Joshi’s next horror marathi film, “Bali” (बळी)
The much talked about horror Marathi Film “Bali” (बळी) is produced by GSEAMS, the producers of many hit films such as Mogra Phulaalaa, Bonus and web series Samantar 1&2, Naxalbari among others. Vishal Furia had shot to fame by his hit thriller Lapachhapi, released three years ago. In the backdrop of the success of Lapachhapi, Furia’s next horror film Bali is being eagerly awaited by the audience.
The Motion poster released on Thursday has a fearful face of a man with blood and images of a cross in his two eyes, depicting the environment of apprehension and agony. It also gives the sense of scary screenplay which could unfold some really scary moments with the tag line of कोण आहे एलिझाबेथ (Who is Elizabeth).
Speaking about the film, Director Vishal Furia said, “Lapachhapi was well received by the Marathi audience proving that they love the horror genre. Appreciating that, I really want to continue making horror films for the Marathi audience and this is another such attempt.” He also added, “with a star like Swwapnil, who has been loved by the audience, on board and maverick producers Arjun and Kartik backing my second horror film, “Bali will be much scarier and thrilling than Lapachhapi. I feel Swapnil’s talent as an actor has not been explored fully till date. And after meeting him, I was confident that he would be fit for this role. Plus, he’s a star and that will help our film reach the masses as well.”
Excited about the film, Swwapnil Joshi said, “I had promised the audience of the Marathi film that I would explore a new genre this year. This film is a small step taken by me in that direction. I am very happy to get into the horror space. I am happy that I have got an opportunity to do it with my favorite people like Kartik, Arjun and my favorite director in this field, Vishal. I am sure that we together could ‘scare’ the audience and make them enjoy it.”
He further said, “If you think of it, barring Vishal’s Lapachhapi, the Marathi industry has never had horror films per se. There were horror comedies, but not films that gave you sleepless nights. I think Bali will fill that void. What’s more interesting is that the film’s story induces fear and not the usual jump-scares or loud music that Indian horror films try to make you scared with.”
We are happy to venture into a new genre with Bali. And who better than Vishal Furia to direct this horror film? His Lapachhapi is considered as one of the best horror films in recent times. We also have one of the top actors of the Marathi industry, Swapnil Joshi, in the lead. Even for him, this is an opportunity to explore a different genre, says Producer Arjun Singgh Baran and Kartk D Nishandar from GSEAMS.
