Here in this blog we are going to discuss about the very popular animated feature films of Bal Ganesh.
In India Mythological films are very popular from the early years of Cinema.
There are many Hindi and other regional language feature films made on mythological figures.
The animation in India is obsessed with mythological figures.
When animation industry started in India, it primarily focussed at mythological concepts and characters.
Unlike the West where the Animation Studios like Walt Disney, Pixar and others created characters based on comics such as Spiderman and Batman.
Years back in 1956 Disney Studio animator Clair Weeks who worked on the animated film Bambi.
The Mythological figures like Krishna, Hanuman or Ganesha are already there in the minds of Indian people and so it is very easy to build animated films on these characters in India.
Along with animated film Bal Ganesh another film My Friend Ganesha (2007) is also popular which is a combination of live-action and animated Ganesha.
In West investments are made on building strong characters for movies to entertain people but in India mythological characters are strong enough compared to any superhero.
Now let’s have a look at the journey of Bal Ganesh travelled so far
Bal Ganesh is a computer-animated film on Lord Ganesh directed by Pankaj Sharma.
The narrative is based on Ganesh Purana and narrates the birth of Lord Ganesha and how the Lord Ganesh is brought to life from a statue of clay and then blessed with various heavenly powers.
Lord Ganesh is Hindu elephant headed god, he is god of good luck and the story is about his mischievous activities along with his rat companion Mooshak.
The first part of the film is about a child’s transformation into Lord Ganesh; through beautiful illustrations it showed the confrontation between the young Lord and Lord Shiva when on the order of Goddess Parvati, Ganesha stood guard at the door as she goes for her bath.
Lord Shiva releases Nandi and his other followers on Ganesh and Lord Ganesh single-handedly tackles them, that scene is shows Lord Shiva doing his dance of fury Tandava and beheading the Lord Ganesha which is witnessed by Lord Vishnu and Goddess Laxmi.
After Goddess Parvati’s request, Lord Shiva brings Lord Ganesha back to life by giving him an elephant’s head.
The characters of this film were created by 3D software.
The hilarious part of the film is when Lord Ganesha’s is invited for a meal at Lord Kubera’s house and even after swallowing huge amount of food Ganesha is not satisfied.
The second part shows Lord Kartika circling the physical world on his peacock while Ganesha circling around his parents.
