Each show has catered to range of emotions; love, pride, honor, fulfillment, joy, tears of compassion. The shows are receiving great applause from nationally and internationally which boosts our enthusiasm. It gives us great pleasure and encouragement to give innovative and best quality entertainment to our viewers. Zee Marathi always believe on quality entertainment and chose to focus on the interpersonal relationships that reflects the ethos of region."

"?Dance Maharashtra Dance?is a show that is evidently well loved in the region and offers a window onto the very heart and soul of Indian life.
