Talking
about
the
film's
narrative,
debutant
director
and
co-writer
Abhijeet
Mohan
Warang
said,
"The
World
of
Dashavatara
has
always
fascinated
me
since
my
childhood.
I
am
thrilled
to
present
Picasso,
the
first
Marathi
film
documenting
Dashavatara
in
its
pure
and
original
format.
I
was
determined
to
make
this
film
relatable
for
each
artist,
hence
we
shot
the
film
in
real
locations.
As
per
the
folklore,
the
origins
of
this
folk
art
originates
from
Lakshmi-Narayan
Temple
in
Valaval
town
of
Tal
Konkan,
where
the
film
has
been
shot.
With
this
film,
we
have
tried
to
bring
out
the
essence
of
the
day-to-day
challenges
of
an
artist's
life.
The
relentless,
painful
yet
satisfying
process
of
creativity-
from
doubting
yourself
to
discovering
new
ways
of
facing
it."
Producer
Shiladitya
Bora
for
Platoon

Films
said,
"There's
no
doubt
that
Marathi
film
industry
is
one
of
the
most
progressive
film
industries
in
India
creating
some
groundbreaking
cinema
in
the
recent
decade.
Many
of
these
films
have
received
critical
acclaim
internationally
and
broke
box
office
records
in
India.
Picasso
is
one
such
film
that
will
inspire
people
across
age
groups
and
boundaries.
Our
entire
team
at
Platoon
One
Films
are
glad
to
collaborate
with
Amazon
Prime
Video
and
introduce
such
stories
contributing
to
this
vibrant
storytelling
industry
in
our
own
little
way.
I
am
excited
for
the
film's
World
Premiere
on
the
streaming
service
in
India
and
across
240
countries
and
territories."
Gandharva,
a
young
student
from
a
remote
village
in
the
Konkan,
is
selected
for
the
national
level
of
the
Picasso
Arts
Scholarship.
The
winner
of
the
competition
gets
to
travel
to
Spain
-
Picasso's
birthplace
-
to
hone
their
art.
Gandharva
informs
his
parents
about
his
selection
&
the
fee
that
needs
to
be
paid
for
entry
to
the
competition,
but
his
parents
tell
him
that
they
cannot
afford
it.
Will
Pandurang
be
able
to
fight
his
demons
and
bring
his
art
back
to
life
not
for
himself,
but
for
his
son?
Picasso
will
join
the
thousands
of
TV
shows
and
movies
from
Hollywood
and
Bollywood
in
the
Prime
Video
catalogue.
