DJ Akbar Sami to remix 'Hanuman' title track

Belying the myth that there is no market for animation films in India, "Hanuman" is going to be released in more than three languages and is also getting its title track remixed by DJ Akbar Sami.

The success of "Hanuman" has inspired its producer, Percept Picture Company (PPC), to work more at keeping the movie a talking point in the film market, reports Bollywood Trade.

The remixed title track will integrate elements of modernity in the theme and help the film keep pace with the youth.

PPC's Chitra Subramanium says: " 'Hanuman' has been very successful and we wanted to keep the film and the music alive amongst the target audiences, which ranges from six to 60, and that is why we decided to do a remix version with Akbar Sami."
