Not knowing Marathi will not take too much out of his movie watching experience. However Dada always throws in a smattering of Hindi and English in most of his movies which gives them a universal appeal. In saying all of this I must also mention that it helps to understand basic Marathi since the village accent makes it more difficult to understand. Its too bad that not too many people have seen any of his works.
