Hanuman Theatre
Hanuman Theatre started around the 1920’s-30’s by the present owners (Madhukar Nirade) Grandfather along with his friend. The theatre was not started to screen movies but for stage performances. Around that time, there was no platform for Marathi folk plays and dramas. The theatre at the time was an open air theatre which was necessary for the folk art.
Since 1994, the theatre has been closed to cultural events due to the lack of performances by local artists and the shutting of mills. The space has been converted into a venue for weddings and such other events. The charges for the space are still minimally priced.
