Inspired by Kirloskar Vasundhara International Film Festival, residents of nine villages in the Sangli district of Western Maharashtra have come together to rejuvenate the Agrani river that flows near their villages. The project is planned by NGO Jal Biradari. The entire project will be implemented in a span of 3 to 5 years. The project will benefit about 20,000 villagers and about 10,000 cattle in nine villages. Besides, it will help to provide irrigation facilities for about 4,500 hectares of land.
