In an exclusive chat with Business Standard, Toonz Animation Chief Executive Officer (CEO), P Jayakumar, said: &#8220;We are venturing into a different format, which would be close to what may be called picture book animation, with &#8216;Shiva'&#8221;. The series would run for 13 half hour shows and the company has chosen Cartoon Network to air the animated picture book series for the Indian audience.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Shiva&#8221; is expected to be aired on the cartoon channel in another six months. As was the case with Hanuman, Toonz Animation&#8217;s Shiva is also expected to churn out a trend in this genre of animation as soon as it goes on air in another six month. <\/p>\n<hr \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>www.business-standard.com NEW DELHI, INDIA, June 12, 2008: Close on the heels of its animated feature film The Return of Hanuman,,&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6875","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6875","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6875"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6875\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6875"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6875"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6875"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
