Winning the Golden Cursor Award is a great feeling, I am glad the jury recognized our effort in creating a genuine edutainment product for kids. Also I am thankful to Shemaroo for giving us the complete creative freedom without which we wouldn‘t ever be able to create such a product.

I am really happy and excited about winning the award. It was my maiden film and concept that I came up with and to have got this award gives a lot of encouragement. There hasn’t been any film of this sort for the children that educates them and at the same time entertains them. The director Yogi Chopra had done a great job and added life to the story. We had taken a bold attempt to combine animation and live action together and it has really come out well with good quality.
