The film premiered at the 35th International Film Festival of India and went on to win the National Film Award for Best Feature Film in Konkani at the 52nd National Film Awards. Upon learning that Goa would host the International Film Festival of India in 2004, Talak quickly finished the shooting and post production of Aleesha. In 2002, Talak decided to make a film about the pollution caused by mining in Goa. Talak received praise for this film from the noted director Shyam Benegal, whom he had invited for the film's release. Talak began his career with the tele-film Shitu in 1994, which was based on a child widow. While handling the music for one of their plays, Shitu, Talak decided that the story was worth making into a movie, which began his journey into filmmaking. Here, Talak gained experience in the many aspects of theatre, which led him to a love for cinema. The group later merged into the Gomant Vidya Niketan Kala Vibha, staging many dramas in Marathi and even winning many awards. In the 1970s, Talak's friend, Sushant Keshav Naik (who was a tabla player), created a music group called Mahesh Kumar & Party, of which Talak was an active part of. He always loved sports and in school, he was a state ranking table tennis player, and even went on to represent his college in table tennis and badminton. He completed his education from Mahila Nutan and Popular High Schools in Margao and later joined Parvatibai Chowgule College, from which he graduated in science.
