History
The first Nagpuri feature film was Sona Kar Nagpur which was produced and directed by Dhananjay Nath Tiwari.Since then, several films have been produced. Nagpuri cinema faces several challenges such as lack of funds and infrastructure, as most audiences reside in villages. Cinema halls are shutting down in the present day. It is also difficult to release nagpuri films in cinema halls due to the high cost. Despite all these, several films are produced per year and few get released in cinema halls.
