A New Era for 'Jay Jagannath'
The cherished TV series "Jay Jagannath," which has won the hearts of countless fans on the Pogo channel, is transitioning to the cinema with an exciting new project. Ele Animations Pvt. Ltd. is set to launch a grand, multi-lingual film titled "Mahaprabhu Jagannath."

This film marks the first installment of the newly launched Sanatan Universe, a cultural initiative designed to elevate Indian spiritual narratives to an international audience. The vision encompasses not just film projects but also immersive experiences, beginning in Puri, a devotional music label, and a live-streaming channel from the Puri Jagannath Temple to connect with devotees globally. Ele Animations is dedicated to establishing a long-term franchise strategy, with plans for another significant film release aligned with the upcoming Rath Yatra cycle.
Alongside "Mahaprabhu Jagannath," Ele Animations is preparing to unveil "Mere Bhole," an animated series inspired by Lord Shiva, along with interconnected tales featuring other revered deities like Lord Hanuman, Lord Ganesha, Goddess Kali, and Goddess Durga. The studio aims to introduce fresh formats that will make the profound teachings of the Vedas and Upanishads relatable to younger audiences, ensuring these timeless lessons resonate in modern contexts.
