An official release informs that The Adventures of Tenali Raman
was produced using 2-D animation. The series revolves around the
clever adventures of the popular folklore character, Tenali Raman,
and is scheduled for world premiere on the channel in the second
quarter of the year. The 13 half-hour episodes of action adventure
series The Adventures of Hanuman are expected to be ready
for telecast on Cartoon Network by early next year.
Senior VP and GM Turner Entertainment Networks Asia Ian Diamond
said, "Providing content based on the Indian story-telling
heritage is a critical mandate for Cartoon Network in its mission
to contextualise the Network for our Indian audiences."
Tenali Raman is the intellectual royal court jester and among the
eight wise men who adorn Vijaynagara’s King Krishna Deva Raya’s
court. The King’s court is the arena where most of the outrageous
battles of wit between Tenali Raman and his adversaries take place.
Tenali is the King’s favourite and can never resist challenges verbal
or otherwise - and one-way or the other wins out in the end!
