After the screening, he also engaged in conversation with the audience. The session provided valuable insight into making the film and its subjects. The film also stars Jitendra Joshi, Milind Shinde, Janardan Kadam and Suruchi and other in the lead roles.
The ‘Ghath’ produced by Shiladitya Bora of Platoon One Films was shot in Gondia and Bhandara districts of Maharashtra. The film revolves around the Mavist-infected forests, discovering complex dynamics between rebels, citizens and law enforcement.

He said in a statement, “It is convinced that ‘Gath’ has finally reached those who were really for it.
Neven said that he had gone to screening hoping to improve screening, but the audience told him that the details shown in the film were true. However, he admitted to receive a response that the film should have less foggy fate for Raghunath.
The director also said that he felt the real anger towards Somji, the commander who had painted on-screen. He said that it only shows how the audiences are personally associated with the film.
