About our Hindu mythology animated films
Hindu mythology animated films ask for two things at once: faithfulness to scripture and the scale of cinema. Every story here begins with the Puranas, the epics and the living traditions, and follows established iconography for every deity before the craft makes it cinematic.
The studio’s Krishna, Radha and Kali stories have been watched by millions on YouTube. Temples, music labels, spiritual organisations and brands can commission new work for festivals, pilgrimages and teaching, in Hindi, Assamese, Bengali or English.

How we work
Scripture first, then cinema
Every film begins with the texts: the Puranas, the epics and the regional traditions, read before a single frame is designed. Iconography, costume and setting follow the canon, then the craft makes it cinematic.
The result is devotional cinema that devotees trust and that audiences who have never heard the story can still feel.
How it runs
Further reading from the studio: The Artist as a Channel, on forging a visual soul for a sacred sound, and The Power of Visual Storytelling for Spiritual Transformation, on why these stories are told as cinema.
How a devotional film is made
- Research: the scriptures and traditions behind the story.
- Script and song: narration, dialogue or lyric, approved first.
- Design: deities, costume and setting drawn from iconography.
- Animation: built at cinematic scale and reviewed at named gates.
- Finish: music, sound, subtitles and versions in every language you need.
Every stage has a named review gate. See the full process.
Questions
The stories we tell
Our Hindu mythology animated films draw on the great story traditions of India, each researched from the scriptures before a frame is designed:
- Krishna: his birth, his childhood in Vrindavan, Radha, Dwarka and the Bhagavad Gita, as in Shri Krishna’s Entire Life and Radha Krishna.
- Shiva: the destroyer and yogi, Sati and Parvati, as in the Lord Shiva Story.
- Devi: Kali, Durga and the battles of the Devi Mahatmya, as in Jai Maa Kali and Maa Kali vs Raktabeej.
- Vishnu and his avatars, from Matsya to Narasimha and Rama.
- Hanuman and the Ramayana, as in Glimpses of the Ramayana.
- Ganesha, the remover of obstacles.
- The Mahabharata and the Gita, the epic of dharma.
Every film is checked for scripture, iconography and costume, so that the gods look and act as the tradition describes them, and every film can be licensed for temples, apps, channels and screenings through our film library.
Devotional music: listen to the studio’s Hindi devotional songs and Assamese songs, each with its music video.
