Like the first shooting schedule of the Marathi film “Takatak 2” has been successfully completed in Goa. Two years ago, when “Takatak” was released and was greeted with a thunderous response at the box office, the enthusiasm it created in the industry was unprecedented as after a series of flops, there was definitely a dire need for films to prove to be successful at that point of time and hence it is a matter of pride that the entire team of “Takatak 2” has completed the first shooting schedule of their film at Goa successfully.
