Home, Gun, Biryani), abbreviated as GBB, is a 2023 Indian Marathi-language action comedy film directed by Hemant Jangal Awtade in his directorial debut, starring Akash Thosar, Sayaji Shinde, Nagraj Manjule, and Sayli Patil in the lead roles.
However, encouraged by Awtade, the storyline underwent a significant overhaul, culminating in the finalized title, "Ghar Banduk Biryani".
[14] Supporting roles feature Tanaji Galgunde, Deepti Devi, Shwetambari Ghute, Vitthal Kale, and Arbaz Shaikh.
[15] The poster released in March 2023 introduces Somnath Awghade and Suraj Pawar, both of whom previously appeared in Fandry alongside Manjule.
[25] During the promotional activities in Chandrapur, director Manjule and actor Sayaji Shinde engaged with police officers from the C16 Battalion who had direct encounters with Naxalites.
[27] The team also visited Pandharpur, where they sought blessings at the Vithal Temple, and Mangalwedha, where Member of Legislative Assembly Samadhan Autade joined them.
[30] Ghar Banduk Biryani was theatrically released on 7 April 2023 in Marathi, along with dubbed versions in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu.
[35] Mihir Bhanage of The Times of India rated it 3.5 stars, describing it as a perfect big-screen entertainer and noting the refreshing presence of a Marathi film in the action drama genre.
[36] Madhura Nerurkar of Maharashtra Times gave 3 out of 5 rating and write "This artwork excels in storytelling, action sequences, and background music, yet certain scenes linger unnecessarily.
The actors deliver commendable performances, alongside impressive cinematography and captivating background music, enhancing the overall narrative flow.
"[37] Shrikrishna Iyer of Koimoi gave 3 rating praised performances of Sayaji Shinde and Nagraj Manjule while criticised old cliché action scenes, said "Despite a few oversights in the story, debutante director Hemant Awtade made an entertaining film to watch.
Debutant director Hemant Jangal Awtade anticipates almost black humour, elaborately choreographed action scenes and minor subplots.
"[40] Akhilesh Neralekar of Loksatta gives a positive review and writes "Ghar Banduk Biryani will certainly be considered as a different experiment for the exciting setting of a simple story, but in terms of business, we sincerely feel that Nagaraj Manjule should not be subjected to a Jhund-like situation again.
[47] The final released song was "Haan Ki Badiv" sung by AV Prafullachandra, Manish Rajgire and Sahil Kulkarni, entirely filmed on Nagraj Manjule.
