Noted Konkani lover Uday Bhembre said at the function that it was rather sad that Konkani lacked in film production although there are some remarkable films in this language like "Amchem Noxib", Nirmonn", "Boglantt", etc, but now, he said, an era in the field of Konkani music, art and culture has begun. "People still differentiate between 'tiatr and natak', 'kantar and geet'. Why there can't be a natak out of a tiatr and geet out of a kantar," Bhembre said.
