National Award Winner Director Ravi Jadhav mentioned: “For me as a director, I couldn`t have asked for any better story than that of Atalji. On top of this, having an exemplary actor like Pankaj Tripathi to bring to screen Atalji`s story and the support of the producers. I hope that I can live up to people`s expectations with ATAL.”
