About Gadkari Rangayatan
Ram Ganesh Gadkari Rangayatan is Thane's best-known theatre, a municipal auditorium on Dr Moose Road beside Masunda Lake, popularly called Talao Pali. Named after the Marathi playwright and poet Ram Ganesh Gadkari, it has been the city's home of Marathi theatre for decades and is run by the Thane Municipal Corporation. It was closed for renovation for about ten months and was reopened on 15 August 2025 with modernised facilities. The programme is dominated by Marathi plays, often two or three different productions in a day at weekends, along with musical programmes, orchestras, lectures, school functions and civic events. Its position on the lakefront puts it at the centre of Thane's evening life.
