Walt Disney and Yash Raj Production’s joint venture ‘Roadside Romeo’, written and directed by Hansraj, would mark Bollywood’s first foray into the animation world.
This is the first Bollywood animatied Hindi film. Â Roadside Romeo is a forthcoming animated movie that would have Kareena Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan lending their voices to animated individuals for the first time. I am sure the most talked about couple in the Bollywood industry lending their voice in an animated film will add more excitement in the film. The main voice cast include Saif Ali Khan as the lead character Romeo and Kareena Kapoor as the love interest Laila.
Walt Disney Studios has partner-up with Yash Raj Films to co-produce a Hindi-language CG animated film. Roadside Romeo, featuring romance, song and dance in the typical Bollywood fashion, yes any Bollywood film is incomplete without the spicy dance jhatkas – matkas and after all Indian audience will not get value for their money till they watch the item songs and heroines dancing to such tunes.
It also features the voice of javed akhtar and surprisingly, all the technology work is done exclusively in India. Movie is directed and written by another promising talent Jugal Hansraj. This venture along with Walt Disney Pictures is expected to leave film followers of all ages entertained and animated like never before. “Roadside Romeo†certainly seems set to become a land mark.
The Story Line-
“Roadside Romeo†twirls the story of a cool, rich, street dog who apparently is abandoned or in other words deserted on the lanes and at the present needs to confront with problems which he has by no means faced previously. A rich, cool, spoil brat of a dog is abandoned on the wicked streets of Mumbai. He faces situations he has never faced before. He is confronted by dangerous, loony characters, the likes of which he has never met before. From mansions to streets… From five course meals to five courses of scraps…From soft beds to piles of garbage…From champagne to tap water… Hop on to the adventure as Romeo turns into “Roadside Romeo.â€
This film will be a lot fun for the tiny tots as it has some similarity with their favorite cartoon character Scooby and also their favorite Cartoon Channel.
