Attrition may defer animation movies

PUNE: Hit by attrition and manpower crisis in the animation industry, most animation movies may not be able to adhere to earlier announced release dates this year. While only two 2D animation movies have begun promotion campaigns, the release of other movies may be deferred to Diwali or even to next year.

As against the host of 3D animation films announced, only one is likely to be released in 2008, throwing everyone’s calculations to the wind.

Movie buffs this summer will have to settle for Ghatothkach and Dashavatar, both 2D animated mythological movies, scheduled for a release on May 23 and May 30. Ghatothkach, produced by Shemaroo and to be released in seven languages, is a life story of Ghatothkach, the son of Bhim, one of the Pandavas from the mythological epic Mahabharata, while Dashavatar, produced by Pune-based Phoebus Media, speaks about the 10 incarnations of Lord Vishnu, and will be released in four languages.
