Kakkad's upcoming Marathi film, Raanti, is creating a lot of excitement. Featuring well-known actors like Sharad Kelkar, Santosh Juvekar, and Chhaya Kadam, it is considered one of the most awaited Marathi films this year.

I am grateful to have a brilliant cast in Sharad, Santosh, Sanjay, Chhaya and the entire team. It has been my constant endeavour, to push the envelope for myself, that's what keeps me going."

Kakkad continues to explore new horizons in filmmaking while maintaining his unique voice in Indian cinema. His dedication to storytelling ensures that each project resonates with audiences on multiple levels.
