Miami based Motion Pixel Corporation (MPC) and Cornerstone
Entertainment of India have finalized the signing of one of India's
most prolific cricket players to star in a new animated movie titled
Captain India.

magical cricket stick which he realizes has special powers and uses it
to help fight crime and also becoming an Indian Cricket Star to help
India win the cricket World Cup.
The movie is currently in preproduction and is scheduled to be
released in early 2012. "We felt Yuvraj was the best fit for the
project which we think will be a mega hit with all the Bollywood and
Cricket fans not only in India but throughout the World," commented
MPC Chairman, Manny Bains.
"Cornerstone has always made best efforts to promote brand Yuvraj as
uniquely as possible. This project is one such opportunity for Yuvi to
reach out to the millions of children across the countries who aspire
to be like him one day. We are happy to partner with MPC and are
looking forward to an entertaining movie" said Bunty Sajdeh of
Cornerstone Entertainment.
