An animated feature film titled ‘Mahaprabhu Jagannath’ is set to premiere on over 300 screens in Hindi, Odia, and Telugu, marking the initiation of the ‘Sanatan Universe’. Ele Animations Pvt. Ltd., known for the Pogo channel series “Jay Jagannath,” is transforming the series into a cinematic venture. The movie delves into the sacred tales of Lord Jagannath, offering cultural insights and timeless values in a visually appealing manner for both children and adults.
The film transcends traditional television animation, serving as a grand cinematic tribute to faith, heritage, and divine escapades. Durga Prasad Dalai, the founder, director, and creative mind behind Ele Animations Pvt. Ltd., expressed that the film aims not only to entertain but also to pass down rich heritage and values to future generations in an engaging and visually captivating way. ‘Mahaprabhu Jagannath’ is just the beginning, setting the stage for the broader vision of the Sanatan Universe.
The endeavor involves creating a connected cultural ecosystem that extends beyond cinema to encompass TV, music, education, and immersive experiences in Puri. By drawing on India’s cultural legacy, the goal is to present spiritual narratives as a premium global offering and educate audiences about deities and traditions through entertainment. The team is excited to embark on this remarkable journey and provide a culturally rooted, enchanting experience to families across India.
Plans include the development of immersive experience destinations, the launch of a devotional music label, and a live-stream channel from the Puri Jagannath Temple for global followers. Upcoming projects feature ‘Mere Bhole,’ a children’s series inspired by Lord Shiva, and interconnected narratives centered on revered deities like Lord Hanuman, Lord Ganesha, Goddess Kali, and Goddess Durga. Additionally, the studio aims to introduce innovative formats to make the profound teachings of the Vedas and Upanishads more accessible to younger generations.
