UTV’s 3D animation fantasy ‘Alibaba And The 41 Thieves’ can boast the voice cast of some of the big Bollywood stars with the likes of John Abraham, Priyanka Chopra, Ashutosh Rana, Atul Kulkarni, Saurabh Shukla and others. The film, which deals with the story of a boy who gets embroiled in the legendary Arabic tussle, is being produced at Chennai based Accel Animation Studios and has been written and directed by Soumitra Ranade of Jajantaram Mamantram fame.
The film has a modern twist to the legendary Arabian tale of ‘Alibaba And The 40 Thieves’ wherein a kid from Mumbai reaches the fantasy land. The film is about his interaction with Alibaba (John Abraham) and the villain Abu Hasan (Ashutosh Rana), the evil and brutal leader of the 40 thieves. Priyanka Chopra has given her voice to the character of Marjinah.
The director is all praises for its production house and says, “UTV is an amazing production house. Once they take on a project, they believe in it completely. In the last few years they are the ones who have given us Rang De Basanti, Jodhaa Akbar, Aamir, A Wednesday and Dev D besides so many other very interesting and commercially viable films. They give you adequate creative space. There is a certain civility with which they make their films. And believe me they will make a serious mark in animation too. Both Alibaba and Arjun are very high end films not just formally but more importantly content wise.”
