Pune-based BIG Animation, a part of Reliance Big Entertainment, has completed 13 episodes of their much anticipated high-end 3D animated television series Little

Based on traditional tales of Krishna's childhood adventures, the series is an outcome of seven years of research and two-and-a-half years of production by the studio's 280 plus team in collaboration with The India Heritage Foundation. The 23-minute episodic series has been created in English, but has also been dubbed in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu.

BIG Animation's CEO Ashish Kulkarni said, "Krishna is the most known and revered brand with a cult following across the world, beyond the people of Indian origin. Secondly, the series has been created using state of the art 3D computer generated character animation in a manner that combines Indian design motifs with classical Western styles."

While the primary target group is children in the age group of 7-9 years, the product is positioned as a family entertainer. Each episode is parcelled as one story carefully integrated as two themes, one soft, and the other full of action, running parallel in each episode. Scripted by Emmy Award winner Jeffrey Scott, directed by Vincent Edwards and R Balasubramaniam, the music for the series has been done by Varaprasad.

"The design team at BIG Animation left no stone unturned to research every style aspect of the land of 'Vraj', where these stories took place 5,000 years ago. The backgrounds, art direction, colour keys and all other elements of detailing were thoroughly researched upon unearthing every possible reference and finally deciding on the designs that will suit the contemporary formats."

Little Krishna is the darling of Vrindavan, the land of peace and tranquility, which is constantly threatened by the malice of evil king Kamsa. While Krishna is busy with his endless pranks and mischiefs accompanied by his friends, Kamsa remains restless for he is aware that Krishna is his nemesis. As in the past, a prophecy had threatened Kamsa that his evil reign is over, and a savior will descend on earth to make Kamsa meet his worst adversity in life, which is his death. The only objective of Kamsa's life therefore, was to find his angel of death.

Sworn to see the end of Krishna, Kamsa relentlessly sends his trusted aids, the ferocious demons to Vrindavan in order to kill Krishna. But Krishna is born to be a savior as he crushes the deadly demons one after another with heroic poise.
