A host of celebrity kids were given the Roar experience yesterday when the makers of the film invited Bollywood stars and their kids for a special screening. Sohail Khan, Atul Agnihotri, Aditi Govitrikar, Farah Khan and many more were present with their kids for the film.
After the screening, the feedback was unanimous. The film’s VFX was praised and most of the children felt that they were actually a part of the team that was in the Sundarbans in pursuit of the Royal Bengal tiger. The kids watched wide-eyed as the film slowly captured their emotions and minds to the extent that Aditi Govitrikar’s son Zhiaan wants a pet tiger now! “The graphics were terrific. There were parts where I got the chills were very exciting,” says Atul Agnihotri’s son Ayaan Agnihotri.
Producer Abis Rizvi says, “It was absolutely thrilling to watch the children react to the film. The air was thick with excitement and I felt extremely proud that the film brought out this reaction.”
Director Kamal Sadanah agrees saying, “Roar was made to give people a peek into the lives of the Sundarbans tigers and gauging by the reaction of the kids, we are now absolutely sure that we have succeeded in bringing the Sundarbans to Mumbai.”
