IMP News Wire June 21, 2008

"My Friend Ganesha" was one of the biggest grosser in multiplexes last year which is still popular with everybody, particularly children. And the film was telecast on television 53 times – almost every week – a record of sorts, is ready with his sequel to hit the screen.

The popularity of  India’s first composite animation film is so tremendous that Mr. Ajhai Acharya of BABA Arts Limited has joined hands with the entire team & have completed its sequel – "My Friend Ganesha II" which is scheduled for release this July, and they are so confident of the  movie that the work for "My Friend Ganesha III" has already started.

In "My Friend Ganesha", the animated character Ganesha had learnt a few English words this time.
Now, in the sequel, he plays a Westernised Ganesha; with a guitar in hand, donning bermuda shorts, a tattoo and a cap, speaking more English words.

Recently a huge set was erected at Filmistan Studios where director Rajiv S Ruia and choreographer Lollypop were picturising a song for the film. Director Rajiv S Ruia, who had also directed the first version, was saying that children would love the song sequence as well as the film.

Rajiv S Ruia says that more or less the entire technical crew, which was associated with the first part, has been retained; only the sequel is produced by renowned banner Baba Arts Limited, known for its multi-starcast blockbusters.

 "While making the first part I and my writer Sachindra Sharma decided that if the film becomes a hit we will go for its sequel. Since the film was a big hit, we made the sequel and now we will launch the third part," says Rajiv S Ruia.
