Mahabharat” 3D Animation Directed by Amaan Khan; Produced by Kushal Kantilal Gada and Dhaval Jayantilal Gada.

Our mythological epics have long fascinated filmmakers. This big budget animation has Bollywood stars lending their voices to the iconic characters, including Amitabh Bachchan as the voice of Bheeshma to Vidya Balan as Draupadi, Sunny Deol as Bheem, Jackie Shroff as Duryodhan, Ajay Devgan as Arjun, Manoj Bajpai as Yudhistir, Anil Kapoor as Karna, Deepti Naval as Kunti, Shatrughan Sinha as Krishna, and Anupam Khen as Shakuni. These animated characters are not entirely modeled on the actors but several strong characteristics were used. A noble effort, but after seeing the trailer, the animation and graphics quality seems sub-par in this modern age.
