Starring an accomplished ensemble cast of Jaaved Jaaferi, Mohammad Samad, Veena Jamkar, and Deepak Damle, the film promises to offer an introspective exploration of human relationships.

Ahead of its theatrical debut, Mayasabha has built momentum on the festival circuit. The film will be specially screened at the Third Asian Film Festival (January 9-15, 2026), with a showcase scheduled for January 11 at 11:30 AM. This will be followed by its official selection under Indian Cinema at the Pune International Film Festival (PIFF) 2026, organized by the Government of Maharashtra, where the film will screen on January 17, 2026, at 7:00 PM.

Sharing his thoughts, director Rahi Anil Barve said, “The audience response so far has been extremely encouraging. Festivals like the Third Asian Film Festival and PIFF provide an ideal platform for a film like Mayasabha to connect with discerning viewers. With the theatrical release on January 30, we are excited to take the film to a much wider audience.”

Adding to the film’s growing buzz, Mayasabha recently received an enthusiastic response as the Opening Film at the Annabhau Sathe Film Festival in Pune, earning strong appreciation and positive word of mouth.
