In
the years 1964-66, Panshikar played the lead in three hit Marathi
movies, 'Manacha Mujra', Aai Kuna Mhanu Mee' and 'Iye Marathichiye
Nagri' the last having been produced by the Late V. Shantaram. However,
Panshikar did not really feel at home with the medium of Cinema
and returned to stage soon. In 1989, he played a major role in another
film called 'Janmathep' by Mr. Vishwas Patil.
Panshikar
has recorded for several Radio plays for All India Radio. In recent
times, he dubbed as Sultan Ahmedshah Abdali for Mr. Vishwas Patil's
'Panipat'.
Even
the burgeoning field of T.V. Serials did not really attract Panshikar.
Nevertheless, he has roles of substance in Marathi Serials such
as Vinay Apte's 'Valwacha Paoos;, Achyut Vaze's 'Kimayagar', SanjBhool',
'Durga to his credit. He has also played the role of Durgadas Barua,
an Assamese Tea plantation owner in the English Serial 'Dawn', directed
by Kalpana Lajmi and produced by Bhupen Hazarika Productions
