| Submission declined on 12 November 2023 by Fade258 (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia. | |

Inspector Mahesh Jadhav is a fictional protagonist character of Police detective in the Zapatlela film series directed by Mahesh Kothare, also created and portrayed the character.[1][2] It was originally featured in 1989 film Thartharat.[3] The character still one of the popular characters in the Marathi audiences.[4]
Development edit
Mahesh Kothare was formerly criminal lawyer, so he was very close to the police and fascinated by the police. Taking inspiration from there, he himself played the character of Inspector Mahesh Jadhav. He had told in an interview that once he went to Ramdas Padhye's show of talking dolls. At that time he thought that "if this doll came alive, what would Lakshya do." Then Kothare made the film Zapatlela on Tatya Vinchu, in which character of Mahesh Jadhav was the protagonist in the film.[2]
Earlier it was featured in the Thartharat in 1989 followed by Majha Chakula and then Zapatlela 2. In 2004, Kothare made guest appearance in Pachadlela as detective Inspector Mahesh Jadhav.[3]

Hardly's book when he was a college student.[2]
Mahesh Kothare's film Dhum Dhadaka was released during my tenth grade year. In addition of Kothare's other films, transformed Marathi cinema.
