Hanuman – Ek Bacha Nidar, a 2D Animated 90 minutes full length feature, Directed by Ruchi Narain and
Produced by Percept Pictures in association with Quintessential Studios has entered production. Moviegoers in this animated feature will experience adventures of Jungle, exotic locales and characters that have been developed after tedious research and understanding of the rich Indian culture, flora, fauna and terrain in those times.
Speaking to AnimationXpress.com about the interesting aspects of this film, Abhishek Nayar – Associate Producer of Percept Pictures, shares, “I feel the idea of exploring “jungle-adventure” genre with Hanuman is really new and multiple characters in the jungle including friends & enemies will be a delight to watch.”
“The Character Seetee in the movie is someone audiences should look forward too.”
Alok Mishra, Executive Producer-Percept Pictures says “As per the guidelines by Ruchi Narain our teams are working with the sole objective of creating a world that existed in the age of gods differently”
The team has been working on the movie since mid 2012 and looking to release it post Diwali this year. Around 50 artists have carried out the Pre Production of this movie whereas 100 are a part of the production process.
Ashish Kukian, SVP- Production-Quintessential Studios says “God is in the details. Meticulous research of the Indian vegetation was conducted to create the perfect jungle environment. To re-create Hanuman’s home too, extensive research of the art, architecture and vegetation of Hampi and Kishkindha (Karnataka) was performed to achieve the precise designs.”
“The characters have been brought to life by some unique but famous voices from the Indian film industry e.g. Sneha Khanwalkar is an acclaimed music director but is the voice for ‘Seetee’, the second lead character in the film. The treatment of the film and the storytelling is very contemporary keeping in mind the liking of kids in present times”, concludes Abhishek
