On the apt occasion of ‘Marathi Bhaasha Diwas’, Dr. Subhash Chandra unveiled the Marathi edition of his autobiography ‘The Z Factor – My Journey as the Wrong Man at the Right Time’.
At the event, Subhashji began by appreciating the city of Mumbai. He said, “While Haryana is my ‘janmabhoomi’ (homeland), Mumbai is my ‘karmabhoomi’ (land of work). After living and working in Mumbai for the last 35 years, I feel that I have been accepted as a Maharashtrian. Mumbai is the land of dreams, where like me, millions of people strive to make their dreams come true. At Essel Group, it has always been our endeavour to preserve and promote the true essence of Marathi culture through our various ventures such as Zee Marathi, Zee Talkies, Zee Yuva, Zee 24 Taas and our Marathi films like ‘Natarang’, ‘Fandry, ‘Killa’,‘Lay Bhari’, ‘Natsamrat’ and ‘Sairat’. I am extremely grateful and humbled by all the encouragement and support that this wonderful city has bestowed on me.”
On this occasion Subhashji met Shri Pradeep Lokhande who runs thousands of libraries across the state. Subhashji announced that a copy of the book will be given to each of the 3750 libraries so that budding entrepreneurs in Maharashtra can make most of the book.
