With life-like animations from Pixar and Dreamworks, we’ve come to expect a certain excellence from animation, which, unfortunately, India hasn’t been able to deliver. Here are some Indian animations that we wouldn’t even call satisfactory.
The characters are as outlined and basic as you’d find in a children’s colouring book and the colours you’d find in a 12- pack colour pencil set. Seriously, you could pause it anywhere and give a child drawing practice.
Sons of Ram trailer
No. Just no. This would make an excellent drinking game: every time this movie makes you cringe, take a shot. Not even Ajay Devgn and Kajol with their acting skills could save this obvious disaster.
Toonpur Ka Superhero trailer
This kid will make you wonder deeply about why this movie was allowed to exist. Were the filmmakers even trying? It’s like an animation student’s first assignment submission, if they were from the worst college in the world.
A looming war between the black and white ants and animal characters, this movie had plenty of potential. So obviously, it was painfully bad with bright dye-like colours and weird faces. If you’ve seen this, or know anyone who has, go watch Pixar’s A Bug’s Life for therapy.
You can sort of deceive kids into watching badly animated movies, but we don’t even see a child sitting through the whole of this. Bad graphics, bad dialogues, bad music and an overused plotline.
