Animated film *Ghatothkach - Master of Magic*, made in the song and dance
style of a Bollywood production, that depicts the escapades of Ghatothkoch,
son of Indian mythological strongman Bhim, will have its first screening at
the Cannes Film Festival, starting May 14.

"The movie will be screened first at the forthcoming Cannes Film Festival.
Last year, we had promoted it at Cannes. Right now, we are in the process of
finalising many brand tie-ups for the movie," Smita Maroo, vice president of
Shemaroo Entertainment, told IANS Wednesday.

According to Maroo, though *Ghatothkach- Master of Magic* was originally
slated for release worldwide May 2, the date has now been deferred.

After *Bal Ganesh* this is Shemaroo Entertainment's second animated film.
Maroo said that in order to ensure animation quality as per world standards,
Shemaroo had hired some of the best talents from India, the US, Philippines
and Canada for the 100-minute animation movie.

It will be released in English, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam and
Bengali.

Made both in 2D and 3D, the movie has been directed by Singeetam Srinivasa
Rao, who made live-action *Appu Raja* and the silent movie *Pushpak*.

*The music has been composed by Pravin Mani, an associate of music director
AR Rahman, for all the seven versions.
*
*Ghatothkach - Master of Magic* is a co-production between Shemaroo
Entertainment and Sun Animatics, Hyderabad.
