New Delhi (India), April 28<\/strong>: Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi inaugurated the event online as the 55-foot giant Hanuman Statue at the Seetaramaswami Temple came alive before a stunned audience and media. The show is produced and presented by T S Pattabhiraman, Trustee Sri Seetharamaswami Temple Trust.<\/p>\n

The crowds were ecstatic. They saw Lord Hanuman roar into life in a manner that was purely the stuff of dreams.<\/p>\n

This laser projection mapping show was a culmination of years of effort in understanding classical religious art forms in the language and metaphor of high technology.<\/p>\n

Filmmaker, tech expert and Guinness world record holder MANI SHANKAR, of 16 December, Tango Charlie and Knock Out fame, visualized, designed and directed the 3D Laser Projection Mapping show.<\/p>\n

Speaking about the music, Bollywood composer Roshin Balu said that\u00a0\u201cThe director wanted to deliver a feel of \u201cThrissur Puram\u201d, the festival of elephants for which the city is famous. So I added the \u2018Mund\u2019 percussions and Nadaswaram to give a distinctive feel to the soundtrack.\u201d<\/p>\n

Anjali Joshi, the production designer, added, “The director wanted to present the show with a dominant theme of gold. Thrissur being India\u2019s leading city of gold jewellery. So we added a gilt edge to the visual fabric, making the show an integral part of Thrissur landscape.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Mani Shankar describes his effort as \u2018Re-imagining Divinity with Reverence\u2019. \u201cThere\u2019s a concept known a Praana Pratishta in Hindu Ritualism, where a statue metaphorically comes to life by performing the correct procedures. In this show, we have re-imagined that in visual emotive terms. As they watch, if people feel an added wave of bliss and reverence to Lord Hanuman, our efforts have borne fruit,\u201d he adds.<\/p>\n

Shri. T S Pattabhiraman, the temple’s trustee, added,\u00a0\u201cWe want to ignite the fire of devotion in the younger generation, and this beautiful laser show has contributed so much to that cause.\u201d<\/p>\n

The co-producer, Shri Ramaswamy (Kanna) adds,\u00a0\u201cThis is the first laser projection mapping show on a religious icon in Kerela.\u201d<\/p>\n

The end part has a Phala Sruthi with a soft trance chant of Ram Ram, leading the viewers to a serene silence. The visual fabric has been inspired by the ancient & powerful ideas of Purusha Suktam of the Rg Veda, the vibrant lyrics of Goswami Tulsidas ji and Valmiki\u2019s storytelling of Ramayana. Mani Shankar and his associates have created a visual, emotional metaphor of both the Invisible Divinity of the Nirakaara Purusha and its Visible Manifestations as Lord Rama and Lord Hanuman.<\/p>\n

Mani Shankar and his team are Mobile 3D Lifesize holography experts, for which he holds the Guinness world record. They also work with AI-integrated Augmented reality and Virtual reality.<\/p>\n
