NEW DELHI : Cartoon Network , a WarnerMedia kids’ channel, will launch its latest action-comedy ‘Dabangg-The Animated Series’ on 31 May, with new episodes dropping every day at 12pm. Animated versions of Bollywood films have long been eyed by television broadcasters and streaming platforms as viable strategies to draw young viewers. Discovery Kids, a division of Discovery Networks Asia Pacific, had earlier announced Fukrey Boyzzz, an animated version of popular Hindi film Fukrey. It’s been great to work with Cosmos-Maya for yet another highly-promising project," Abhishek Dutta, South Asia Network head for Cartoon Network and POGO, said in a statement. Outings such as these will play a big role in bringing people back to theatres post the pandemic, industry experts say.
