The story’s universal appeal coupled with state of the art special effects will undoubtedly win over Indian fans. We feel privileged to maintain our endeavor to bring the best of international titles to India.”

The story of Tarzan, the ape-like protagonist begins with an expedition in the remote African jungle where in an unfortunate series of events, John Greystoke and his wife are killed in a helicopter crash while investigating a mysterious meteorite site. Only their young son J.J., nicknamed Tarzan, survives. A group of gorillas discover the boy in the wreckage and take him in as their own. Tarzan grows up learning the harsh laws of the jungle for nearly a decade until he encounters another human being - the courageous and beautiful young Jane Porter. It is love at first sight. But things get dangerous when William Clayton, who travels to Africa with Jane under false pretense, reveals his true - and greedy - intentions. Tarzan, now a man like no other, must use all his jungle instincts and intellect to protect his home and defend the woman he loves.
