Mukta Arts Ltd. and Green Gold Animation have announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to collaborate on the development and production of animated shows and feature films based on Mukta Arts’ iconic intellectual property portfolio.

As part of its strategic expansion into animation, Mukta Arts launched SGM Animation Studio in

2025 as its dedicated Animation and Games division. The studio is focused on developing, producing and co-producing animated films, series, comic books and games, leveraging Mukta Arts’ rich IP library built over four decades, along with creating new original properties rooted in the company’s

storytelling legacy.

Green Gold Animation, founded by Rajiv Chilaka, is India’s leading animation studio and the creator

of some of the country’s most successful homegrown animation IPs, including the globally popular Chhota Bheem universe. With decades of experience and hundreds of hours of animated content, Green Gold brings deep expertise in building scalable, character-driven franchises for television, OTT and feature films.

Under the MOU, Mukta Arts and Green Gold Animation will work together to develop multiple

animated IPs inspired by landmark films from Mukta Arts’ celebrated catalogue, including Kalicharan, Karz, Hero, Karma, Ram Lakhan, Khalnayak, Saudagar, Iqbal and more, along with

character-led spin-offs from these universes.

Creative teams from Mukta Arts and Green Gold Animation have already initiated discussions, with the first project currently in development.

Commenting on the collaboration, Rajiv Chilaka, Founder and CEO, Green Gold Animation, said, “This partnership with SGM Studios allows us to apply our experience in building long-lasting

animation IPs to a truly iconic film catalogue. Together, we aim to create animated worlds that are rooted in these legendary stories, yet designed to connect with today’s young, global audiences.”

Subhash Ghai, Filmmaker and Founder, Mukta Arts Ltd. said, “Mukta Arts has always believed in creating stories with lasting emotional value. Through animation, we are extending our IP into a new medium for the next generation.”
