Feroz Abbas Khan directs animation series called 'Adalat-e-Corona'

MUMBAI: Director Feroz Abbas Khan, known for theatre productions like "Mughal-e-Azam" the musical, and films like "Gandhi My Father", has conceived and directed an animation series titled "Adalat-e-Corona".

It is a series of videos that use entertainment-education to convey impactful message.

He said: "Due to the lockdown, we were pushed to explore the animation medium. 'Adalat-e-Corona' uses the familiar setting of a courtroom drama to disseminate key messages, tackle misinformation, and reinforce a sense of solidarity around the fight against Covid-19. We wanted the series to be accessible and relatable. To that end we used humour and situations people often find themselves in."

The animation series, through videos made for a Facebook audience in Hindi, will address issues such as stigma and discrimination, precautions, wearing of masks, physical distancing, mental wellbeing and anxiety.
