A prominent social worker and 2008 Magsaysay Award winner, Dr. Prakash Amte, will feature on Zee Marathi s popular talk show Khupte Tithe Gupte as an honorable guest along with the well known Marathi comedy actress Nirmiti Sawant. The duo will share their experiences from their respective professions as well as their personal lives. Also, both will throw the light on the things which they feel are not right in society and mark their honest takes on the same.
Being a son of the legendary social worker Baba Amte, Dr Prakash Amte is following the legacy of his father. Still he successfully managed to create his individual identity as a social activist. On the show, he shared his real life experiences while working in the forests for Madia Gonds (a tribal from Gadchiroli district, Maharashtra). Our life may seem thrilling to the outside world but in reality, our work is extremely challenging. It s not easy to survive in a jungle when you are living with tribal people without the knowledge of their local language. Also, when you are hungry you cannot appraise the beauty of nature. Dr Mandakini Apte, his better half, who is an equal contributor in his work was also present on the show.
Nirmiti Sawant, a well known Marathi stage and film actress, expressed her views on her professional life. I am not dominating in nature at all; but when it comes to my work, I am an extremely serious person and cannot tolerate indiscipline.
The show is hosted by Awadhoot Gupte, a renowned singer and music director who is famous for his witty humor and funny comments.
The episode will be telecast on Friday, 18th March @ 9.30 pm only on Zee Marathi.
