The film has been directed by Pankaj Sharma and produced by Smita Maroo and Pankaj Shrama.Pankaj Sharma, who hails from Himachal, finished his graduation in Chandigadh and MBA in Pune. His foray in the tinsel industry started as an editor. He is a master of special effects. More than 100 hundred special effects editor trained by him are behind many projects of Bollywood. He always felt that our entertainment Industry has always ignored needs of children and he will do something for them. He produced TV Serial , 'Hukum Mere Aaka' for Sahara TV and his special effects in this serial were eye catchers, which got him nominated in the best special effects category at the 'Indian Telly Awards'. His 3D animation tele film 'Bal Hanuman' on Zee TV and Cartoon Network were also very popular among children.
With BAL GANESH Pankaj Sharma debuts as a director on the big screen. He is very much satisfied with the result. He says, "I thoroughly enjoyed the making of this film. It took 18 months of continuous hard work. For better 3D effects we made dresses and wigs of the character. We might have done it through comparatively cheaper 2D sketches, but we wanted it would have not given the real 3D look what we see in Hollywood's animation film. Film has a lot of action and seven songs."
BAL GANESH was scheduled to release on Ganesh Chaturthi, but extensive effects have delayed the release. Now, it will release in October. And, after that Pankaj Sharma will start work on his next animation film, about which, he thinks it will be premature to talk about.
