One Life Studios presents a slate that moves from a new children’s animation and historical epics to short-form romance. Its titles include Raaya – The Great Indian Tales, Porus, Chandragupta Maurya, Baal Krishna, Connection Request and Delhi Vs Mumbai.
Raaya – The Great Indian Tales is an 18 x 11-minute animated series built around the questions of nine-year-old Raaya. Alongside her witty Uncle Al and Veda, an AI companion, she explores stories rooted in India’s storytelling tradition while connecting ancient ideas with modern science. A seasonal arc opens with the origin of the universe and moves through planets, temple bells, mythology, history and culture.
The historical action-drama Porus (299 x 30 minutes) follows the Indian ruler as he defends his homeland against Alexander the Great. Set against the worlds of ancient India and Greece, the series contrasts the two leaders and the civilizations around them.
Chandragupta Maurya (221 x 30 minutes) tells the story of a prince raised as a slave who, guided by the strategist Chanakya, rises to unite fragmented kingdoms and establish the Maurya Empire. Baal Krishna (350 x 30 minutes) turns to the miraculous childhood of Lord Krishna in a family-oriented historical drama.
The slate also includes two microdramas. Connection Request (18 x 2 minutes) explores dating apps, coincidence and the return of a past connection in the digital age. Delhi Vs Mumbai (97 x 1 minute) follows a whirlwind romance between two people from different worlds in the two cities.
