Animated film on ISKCON founder Srila Prabhupada announced

Mumbai, November 10 (UNI) Filmmakers Hombale Films and Transcendental Films have announced an animated feature on the life of A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Srila Prabhupada, who founded the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON).
Hombale Films, known for producing films like "KGF", "Salaar" and "Kantara", is preparing to bring Indian spiritual heritage to the audience through modern technology through this project. The film will depict the life of Srila Prabhupada, his struggles, spiritual dedication and his journey of spreading Krishna devotion across the world.
The film features the use of cutting-edge Artificial Intelligence (AI) motion capture technology, which will convert the actors' body movements, gestures and facial expressions into digital animation, making the animated characters more lifelike and natural.
The film will highlight Srila Prabhupada's historic journey from India to the United States in 1965 at the age of 69. Bringing with him the teachings of the Bhagavad Gita and the message of Lord Krishna, he embarked on a worldwide mission to spread Krishna consciousness, guided by the instructions of his spiritual guru, Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Thakura. His life embodies faith, dedication, struggle, and selfless service.
Gaura Shakti Das has written and directed the film. Rajesh Singh and Lohith Rao are producing, while Sridhar Shikaripura has served as visual director. The film is produced under the banner of Transcendental Films in association with Dive Deep AI Studios. Hombale Films will present and release it worldwide.
The project has the blessings of Sri Narasimha Chaitanya Math, Srirangapatna, ISKCON Bengaluru, ISKCON and Bhaktivedanta Book Trust (BBT).
Following the success of "Mahavatara Narasimha," this initiative by Hombale Films is considered significant in bringing stories rooted in Indian civilisation, Sanatana tradition, and spiritual heritage to a new generation through modern cinematic technology. The film will be released in theatres worldwide in August 2027, coinciding with Srila Prabhupada's Vyasa Puja. UNI NST CDS
