“With our Hollywood writers and director, and Indo-China production, ‘Beijing Safari’ will have international appeal,” Jiang said, adding that China has emerged as the second biggest film market in the world. Ping Jiang, CEO of Heshan Media said, China and India can jointly produce truly world class films and that animation movies have a universal appeal. Jha further added that some of the biggest companies in the world have expressed interest in partnering with them as the issue is of universal concern. Our partner in China has an amazing computing infrastructure, which is critical for making a world class animation film,” Aditya Nath Jha, CEO of Krayon Pictures and ex-head of Corporate Marketing and Global Branding at Infosys, said. “We are extremely excited at making a global film with our Chinese partners. The sequel, which will be written by Oscar-Nominated writer Tab Murphy, is based on the issue of water contamination. It will be made in English and Chinese and distributed internationally.

“Beijing Safari” will be directed by Daniel St Pierre, who has worked on films like “The Lion King”, and “Aladdin”.
