But while the sarees travel far and wide the hands behind it barely getone for themself. Depicting the plight of a weaver of an artisans journey Mrinal Kulkarni is here with another story fabricated with tapestry of Indian culture and women navigating their own in this side of the world.

Bigg Boss 18 is a widely popular reality show that features several faces from the TV screen or the film industry involved in a game of survival. We asked the Son Pari actress if she has happened to watch the episodes and what are thoughts with her on screen daughter’s performance in the show. Kulkarni was quick to respond “When you play a mother to a daughter I played Mother to Eisha. When I came to know that she is going to do Bigg Boss and she will be facing all the problems there I dont know how she will do toh I was very scared like a mother. I was very tensed for a few days I must admit. I saw one episode she was so good in that. I knew she is going to be there and show her strengths. SO I wish her all the best and I am very happy for her. ...it is important to show regressive content... Mrinal Kulkarni comes bearing a an amazing experience working in the TV industry. Hindi TV serial have often been the centre of debates around regressive content. When asked about the same the actress said Number of such shows are decreasing day by day and at times it happens ki pehle regression hota hai and uske baad hi progress hoti hai.  So may be it is important to show regressive content and then come out of it. If it is that then I am happy about it. Mrinal Kulkarni on Learning Art of Paithani Mrinal is deep down in doing historical show period dramas. Sharing her thought behind choosing the script Kulkarni happily shared how the script  piqued her interest. I told my director that I want to go to the loom two days before we start the shoot because I want to learn that...Maine crash course kiya Paithani bunne kaand it is a very very very tough task any handloom for that matter she said with a smile on her face.
