About Mahavatar Narsimha
The Indian animated epic mythological action film, directed by Ashwin Kumar in his directorial debut, written by Jayapurna Das, and produced by Kleem Productions and Hombale Films, is the first instalment in the planned animated seven-part Mahavatar Cinematic Universe, based on the ten avatars of Bhagavan Vishnu. The film tells the tale of Lord Vishnu’s half-man, half-lion avatar Narsimha, who emerges to protect the devout Prahlad and defeat the demon king Hiranyakashipu.
The film struck a chord with the audience and has been running successfully in theatres despite tough competition from Bollywood films like Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri's Dhadak 2 and Ajay Devgn's Son Of Sardaar 2. The animated film has collected ₹106 crore at the box office in India and over ₹120 crore worldwide.
