 "We
have been assigned this program, which will be a mix of animation-cum-live
programming. The series has been approved by Public Service Broadcasting
Trust of Doordarshan," said Leoarts’ director Vinay Rai.
According to Rai, the program is sequel to one of Leoarts’ production
Journey through line, aired on DD last year. As the case
with its earlier production, 12PM, too, depicts diversified
Indian culture.
The new program shows different cultural and social backgrounds
from where the prime ministers have emerged. The series has evaluated
the backdrop and upbringing of all the prime ministers from Jawahar
Lal Nehru to Atal Bihari Vajpayee, illustrated with the help of
animation.

"It is the journey of India, through the lives of prime ministers.
It’s about India has progressed towards a liberalised economy,"
said Rai. Leoarts, which took three months to complete this project,
has used several animation techniques and work from various artist
to produce a unique production.
"I am using several animation techniques such as 2D and clay
animation to make it more lively. I have used worked done by eight
cartoonists including Ravi Shanker, Rajender Puri and Abu Abraham,"
said Rai.
The production house had recently completed its digitally-shot
English movie Kashish, which was also aired in the Indo-British
