Feroz Khan gets animated

The veteran, with the cast of the film ‘Ek Khiladi Ek Haseena’, will be immortalised into a 3D character

Pritish Nandy Communications (PNC) has zeroed in on the characters of their film ‘Ek Khiladi Ek Hassena’ to get animated. Aptly called ‘EKEH 2.0’, the project would weave the nuances of the old characters into a new script.

The cast includes Fardeen Khan, Feroz Khan, Koena Mitra and Kay Kay Menon. This is the first time that Bollywood actors will get immortalised into 3D animation characters.  

PNC had signed a five-film animation deal with Motion Pixel Corporation, Florida. The deal between the two companies includes five 3D animated full-length Bollywood feature films with Indian and international actors and item numbers. The first of these five films is currently in production.

The deal will see PNC handle the creative aspects of these animated films from the development of scripts, movie soundtracks, including contracting top Bollywood and international stars to do voice-overs for the animated characters. 

‘EKEH 2.0’ ‘is slated to release in the first half of 2008.
