[5] Yogesh Deshpande said: "Portraying the life of a renowned figure on screen is indeed a challenging task, requiring thorough research. Sudhir Phadke, affectionately known as 'Babuji', holds a special place in the hearts of Maharashtra. With a deep desire to showcase his life, I embarked on a journey of gathering as much information as possible about him. Through meetings with those who knew him closely, I unearthed lesser-known aspects of his persona. The endeavor to depict his life on screen culminated in 'Swargandharva Sudhir Phadke,' a tribute not only to his musical prowess but also to the arduous journey behind his iconic songs." [1]
