This is a fantastic initiative. Our stories have such depth and are perfect for the cinematic medium. I just hope they focus on the spiritual and philosophical aspects and not just make it a visual spectacle. The responsibility is immense, as the director said.

Interesting. But I'm a bit skeptical. Sometimes these adaptations take too many creative liberties for "modern appeal." Please stick to the essence of the Puranic stories. Our culture doesn't need unnecessary dramatization.

As someone who married into an Indian family, I'm always eager to learn more about these beautiful stories. An animated film seems like a great way to introduce these epics to a global audience, including my kids. Looking forward to it!

Saregama is doing great work. After their music legacy, venturing into animated mythology films is a bold and welcome step. The team seems passionate. Hope the animation quality matches international standards. Jai Bholenath! 🕉️

The story of Sati is so powerful and tragic. It's more than a love story; it's about devotion, sacrifice, and cosmic balance. I really hope the film captures that gravity and doesn't simplify it. Fingers crossed!
