'Ghajani' got an opponent

Percept Picture Company is releasing their new animated movie Jumbo on the day of Christmas, that is 25th of December. It is on the same day that the Aamir Khan starrer Ghajani too is getting released. Aamir's Ghajani is a big commercial film where as Jumbo is a film under children's content category.

Jumbo is an animated film having an elephant as it's main protagonist who set out himself in search of his parents. Bollywood actors Akshay Kumar, Lara Dutta, Dimple Kapadia, Rajpal Yadav, Gulshan Grover and Asrani are some of the voices behind the animated characters. Also cricketer Yuvraj Singh too is going to lend his voice to this film for it's Punjabi version. Akshay was very impressed with the film Jumbo and he even said that this film is dedicated by him to his six year old son Aarav.

The makers of this film Jumbo are not scared about the film that they have to compete with and with the disasters that the recently released animated films like Hanuman, Bal Ganesha and Roadside Romeo have to suffer with. According to them, this film is a pure Bollywood potboiler and is entirely around relationships and emotions. They even said that Jumbo is not just an animation film, which deserves to be only in the children film category but it want it to be in the general film category, viewed by people of all ages.

Let's wait until Dec 25th to know whether this small aniamted movie can overcome the pressure created by such a big movie like Aamir Khan starrer Ghajani.
