Indian streamer Disney+ Hotstar is planning a major push into animation content for adults.
The push follows the success of Graphic India’s 3D animation “The Legend of Hanuman,” the third season of which debuted earlier this month to a critical and audience reception that the streamer is happy with. The series is derived from ancient Indian mythological epic “The Ramayana.”
“There are so many stories around around ‘The Ramayana’ that are remaining to be told. We feel that this is a franchise, which has lots of storytelling left, and we want to really scale up and build this world in an exciting manner,” Gaurav Banerjee, head, content, Disney+ Hotstar and HSM (Hindi-language speaking markets) Entertainment Network at broadcaster Disney Star, told Variety.
Disney+ Hotstar is teaming with Graphic India again for another adult animation series, which will be unveiled within the next six months, but it is coy about specific details at the moment.

The creator of ‘The Legend of Hanuman’ Sharad Devranjan has shared that season three depicts the vast energies of Lord Hanuman intertwined with the king Ravan.
‘The Legend of Hanuman’ unfolds the journey of the warrior hero Hanuman, however, as the audience will move forward in the journey, they will discover little nuances that shaped the legendary win.
Elaborating on the same, Sharad, co-founder and CEO of Graphic India said: “Our series was shaped around the essential story of a young vaanar rediscovering his inner self. This, in itself, is a unique point of view as that journey of Lord Hanuman has not been depicted widely. We offer a fresh take on the legend.”
“This is Hanuman’s journey of self-discovery and emotional growth. In his younger version, we see traits of the legend he will become; playful, fun-loving, righteous, optimistic, humble, and authentically honest. Lord Hanuman’s journey is...

The show brings together viewers from different age groups, making it enjoyable for everyone.

The ‘Bhoomi’ actor went on to say, “You can create a fantasy medium with animation which is why it’s very popular with kids. I learned this from my daughter. She literally feels that...

Actor Sharad Kelkar, who voices the character of Ravan in the animated series ‘The Legend of Hanuman’, has expressed his displeasure over poor dubbing choices in the industry. The actor said that this is particularly “frustrating because the content that has the potential to break new grounds in the Hindi market goes to waste because the makers don’t want to spend much on the dubbing process”.
Talking about the same, he said: “The craft of voice-modulation and voice acting is not appreciated in the industry which I’m very angry about. I have seen such brilliant content in English or even from south India, it has the potential to disrupt new markets but it all goes to waste when the content is dubbed in Hindi.”
He further mentioned: “Most of the time the dubbing is so bad, sometimes knowingly with the lack of budget ruining the viewing experience for the audience.

Among its slate of MipTV presentations, The Wit hosted its first-ever Fresh TV Young Adult Content. After the last series of in-person sessions hosted by The Wit at MipCom, the importance and influence of YA drama was unmistakable, inspiring this year’s MipTV dedicated session hosted by The Wit founder-ceo Virginia Mouseler.
“It’s our mission at The Wit to give our subscribers information and inspiration for creation and acquisition,” she said, explaining the new session’s inspiration.
“In the world of YA drama, ‘Euphoria’ is the reference for the genre,” she started, before noting that fans of the HBO super-series were left without a new season in 2020, leaving many to turn to Warner Bros’ “Generation,” similarly on HBO Max. Describe by Mouseler as a post-“Euphoria” series, “Generation” is far less tragic and far more tongue in cheek.

Actor Sharad Kelkar is surprised that the audience is still hesitant to return to the cinema theatres, although other areas of the hospitality and entertainment industry have started to open up, post Covid lockdown.
"People have started going to pubs, coffee shops, restaurants, weddings and even to places like Goa on vacation. People are partying big time, so I don't know why they are not going to the theatres," said Sharad.
"Theatres are much safer, and also there is 50 per cent occupancy. Theaters are regularly cleaned and sanitised. This is one of the biggest industries we have, and it is dependent upon the audience. So I'd request everyone that if you can party, you can also go to the theatre," he added.
