Mumbai, June 18 (SocialNews.XYZ) Actor and producer Manasi Parekh, who was recently seen in the Gujarati blockbuster 'Jhamkudi', said that it is a golden era for Gujarati cinema and wants every aspect of her latest release to match the quality of a Hindi film.

'Jhamkudi', co-produced by Manasi and her husband Parthiv Gohil, has amassed over Rs 8.5 crore in just 10 days.
