For at least 3 years, I have watch Marathi Movies, First Day, First show! That's roughly about 150 -200 movies in 3 years. Thanks to the lockdown, I have watched most of the Marathi movies on Amazon Prime, Netflix and Disney+ Hotstar. 

 

I am hoping this blog page will help you choose good Marathi movies to watch! Look at the irony! I am writing in English about Marathi Movies.
