Duniyadari (transl. Worldliness) is a 2013 Indian Marathi-language coming-of-age romantic comedy drama film[6] directed by Sanjay Jadhav and produced by Deepak Rane under Dreaming 24/7 Productions.[7] It is considered to be a cult film in Marathi cinema. The film stars an ensemble cast of Swapnil Joshi, Ankush Chaudhari, Urmila Kanitkar Kothare, Sai Tamhankar, Jitendra Joshi, Sushant Shelar, Uday Sabnis, Uday Tikekar, Varsha Usgaonkar, Sandeep Kulkarni, and Nagesh Bhosle.[8] The film is based on the novel of the same name by late author Suhas Shirvalkar and ran for more than 100 days in cinemas. The film is about the journey of everyone which eventually makes them realise the true face of life.

The film was theatrically released on 19 July 2013. It was a commercial success, as the film grossed over ₹32 crore (US$3.8 million) at the box office. This is the only Indian film of the decade (2010–2020) which has completed 50 weeks in cinemas and had the most collection at the box office for a film in Marathi which was broken by Timepass in 2014, again by Lai Bhaari, and again by Sairat in 2016.
