After toys, Lalu set to entice kids with animation
MUMBAI: After Union Railways Minister Lalu Prasad Yadav managed to lure the nation’s kids with toffees and toys named after him, he is now sure to entice them once again with an animation film that showcases Lalu in a different light altogether.
The film has been characterized, conceptualized and produced by Bihar-based cartoonist Pawan. Sashi is the voiceover artist who has impersonated Lalu’s voice in the film.
The project, whose first clip is ready for market launch, has received prior approval and concent from the Union Railways Minister.
Lalu has always been a very interesting topic to head for by the Bollywood industry which has created many characters personifying the minister to entertain the audiences. And now, with the animation industry on a growing spree altogether, Pawan believes the film is surely to hit the bull’s eye.
