# Valu (2008)

2008 · India


## Synopsis

Valu is a 2008 Indian comedy Marathi film directed by Umesh Vinayak Kulkarni. Umesh Kulkarni is an alumnus of FTII, Pune. The film featured in various international film festivals as The Wild Bull. It also became the first Marathi film to be selected in Rotterdam International Film Festival 2008, the Netherlands. It was the only Indian film which was allotted four screenings during the festival. Valu was the first marathi film for which Mukta Arts took over the worldwide distribution rights. Shanta Gokhale from Mumbai Mirror wrote "Not in a long time have we had a film like Valu that gives us a village that is neither idealised, sensationalised nor sentimentalised, but is simply itself, like something out of a Madgulkar story".
