Sumi, the National Award-winning Marathi film, is set to premiere on Planet Marathi OTT platform, the makers announced recently. The release is scheduled on November 14, marking the occasion of children's day.

Sumi emphasises significant concerns like girl child education, women empowerment, education in rural areas and infrastructural development.

According to IANS, the film's director  Amol Gole said, "The risk we took to tell a brave story has paid off. Every character in the film will leave the audience with a strong message, especially the characters of both the kids who have performed so real by understanding the nerves and emotions."

Sumi, which stars child actors Akanksha Pingale and Divyesh Indulkar, and veterans like Smita Tambe and Nitin Bhajan, follows the inspiring story of the daughter of a stone quarry worker and her pursuit of higher education.

The film won the Best Children's Film award and Akanksha Pingale and Divyesh Indulkar shared the Best Child artist award at the 68th National Film Awards. Produced by Harshal Kamat Entertainment in association with Golden Mouse Productions, the film is written by Sanjeev K Jha.
