Akshay Oberoi will give voice in the film ‘Kamatipura’

Mumbai: Actor Akshay Oberoi will lend his voice in the stop motion picture titled ‘Kamatipura’. Talking about the innovative technology used in the film, Akshay said, “Working on this motion capture film has been an incredible journey. The technology behind it is cutting edge and the result is truly spectacular.”

“Working on a project that brings Mumbai’s magical creatures to life has been a truly special experience.”

He added: “We wore specially designed helmets and gear as we walked through the space. Video cameras recorded our movements. This data was used to create the animation sequences you’ll see on screen. “

“This is a technology that has been used for many Hollywood projects such as ‘Lord of the Rings’, ‘Happy Feet’, ‘The Adventures of Tin Tin’ and ‘Planet of the Apes’.”

Based on the anthology book ‘Magical Creatures of Mumbai’s Underbelly’ by Sneha Sapru, the film is a visual extravaganza directed by director Ayushmann Pandey.
