Vapu’s literature comprises of so many varieties. We have made two Audio Movies out of it with selected material representing all flavors of it.


Synopsis:

First Movie: Char Botanche Antar

As per the title which means distance of four fingers, audiences are going to cross the distance
between ear & eye with the visualizing experience through listening only.

The movie starts with introductory philosophy in the Golden voice of Shri Vapu. Then it subtly illustrates story-telling tradition of the family with a cute little story of Sawkar & Sadhu. This way the journey starts with a simple story & moves towards a comic element of a movie. It’s a story named ‘Pen Salamat To’ which demonstrates effects of being addicted to any habit which is otherwise not harmful. Then a story ‘Shrimant RaghunathRao Peshve’, a fantasized tale of presented on the backdrop of Mumbai Corporation (BMC) is presented in a form of satirical humor.

Second Movie: Kachapani

Kachapani is a childhood game in which you have to take out single piece of glass from bunch of glasses without disturbing another glass as each & every piece is important. This movie opens up with Vapu’s own analysis about human beings & the relationship building process in between them. Then this voyage travels to a fantasy, illusion n day-dreaming tendency of any human being which goes with all twists & turns of imagination, ‘One for the road’. After that a heart touching emotional tale ‘Milord’ is presented. It shows us selfish side of human beings crossing relations & at the same time a bond of humanity which ties this species together as well.

The letters:

In both audio movies, letters exchanged between Vapu & readers are included to take the journey on personal level. They are sweet, advice seeking, sometimes absurd & shows up interesting interaction between the writer & his audience.

The content is being bonded by Mrs. Chandorkar’s memory sharing about her father as a writer, a human being, a family person & all other facets of his personality on personal & professional level. Her participation has provided a very personal touch & resulted in high production values.
