They made a unique impression in all three fields of drama, film and series. Young Turks be old extracts, relatives or poo. Okay. Whether Deshpande's literal, reading humour, Atul Parchure added deep colours to it with his personal qualities. They also made a great personality in Marathi and Hindi movies. A classy Marathi actor has been lost due to his departure. This damage is not to be filled with. I am a part of the grief of the family members due to this relationship as one of the thousands of fans of Parchure. May God give them the strength to endure this suffering. On behalf of the state government, I pay tribute to them. Om Shanti.”
