Akki Jumbo and Aamir Ghajini may Clash box office

"We have purposely pitched Jumbo against Ghajini because we feel that our film has the ability to stand against a big commercial film," said Shailendra M. Singh, managing director of Percept Picture Company. Jumbo that is scheduled to release on Dec 25 is an animation film where the protagonist, an elephant, sets out in search of his parents.
Bollywood actors Akshay Kumar, Lara Dutta, Dimple Kapadia, Rajpal Yadav, Gulshan Grover and Asrani are some of the voices behind the animated characters.

"Children's content is not a priority in our country. However, we want to change this scenario. In my view Jumbo is not just an animation film, which deserves to be only in the children film category. I want it to be in the general film category, viewed by people of all ages," said Singh, who has plans to rope in cricketer Yuvraj Singh as the Punjabi voice of Jumbo.

The film, which is dedicated by Akshay to his six-year-old son Aarav will have a special screening at his place before it formerly hits the screens
Percept Picture Company's animation caper Jumbo, might be a film under children's content category, but it aims to give tough competition to Aamir Khan's much-awaited film Ghajini, releasing on the same date.
