In a major success story for the Marathi film industry, the suspense thriller 'Dashavatar' has emerged as a box office blockbuster.

The success of 'Dashavatar' has undoubtedly set a new benchmark for the Marathi film industry, and its expansion into the Malayalam market is a testament to the growing appeal of regional cinema across India.
