This devotional animated film shook Indian cinema like Baahubali, Salaar, and Kantara did for live-action.Director Ashwin Kumar and Producer Shilpaa Dhawan reveal how a small self-funded passion project transformed into a Netflix-trending phenomenon, powered not by big studios — but by belief, persistence, and audience devotion.Just like Prashanth Neel (Salaar, KGF) and Rishab Shetty (Kantara), Ashwin walked away from industry norms to build something original — not with action or violence, but with spiritual storytelling and divine conviction.🔥 In this episode, they openly talk about:• Leaving secure Bollywood VFX careers to pursue an unapologetically devotional vision• Funding the film to the last rupee — and borrowing from family when everything ran out• Protecting the purity of shastras, even considering Sanskrit for voiceovers instead of modern dialogue• How theatres turned into temples — with audiences performing aarti during shows• Breaking the “animation is for kids” stigma by delivering mass-style heroism, blood, and scale• Why Mahavatar Narsimha may be the turning point for India’s indigenous animation industryThis is not just a filmmaking conversation — it’s about how faith, conviction, and craft can ignite a cultural shift.🔔 Subscribe for more deep dives into film, animation, and creator journeys!🔗 Follow us on:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/grafixmistrishowInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/grafixmistri/Twitter: https://twitter.com/grafixmistriFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/bhavitanejakkc/Are you looking to elevate your brand or need expert branding services?
