TIL Desk Hollywood/ Actress Freida Pinto says actor-filmmaker Andy Serki’s “Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle” is an ode to India. The film is based on Rudyard Kipling’s widely-read classic “The Jungle Book” — story of a boy in an Indian jungle, who grows up with animals.
“Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle” stars Indian-American child actor Rohan Chand, Matthew Rhys and Freida Pinto, along with voice and motion capture performances from Christian Bale, Cate Blanchett, Benedict Cumberbatch, Naomie Harris and Serkis.
“Beautiful part about ‘Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle’ is that it is an ode to India. I remember Andy telling me before I left for South Africa that he wanted me to do my parts in Hindi and wanted to attempt it and go down that route.” She added the film, which is set to release on streaming giant Netflix on December 7, brought back beautiful things associated with the country.
