"Goopi Gawaiya Bagha Bajaiya" is an animated feature film directed by Prof. Shilpa Ranade from the Industrial Design Centre (IDC), IIT Bombay. The film, released in 2013, is an adaptation of the iconic children's story "Goopi Gyne Bagha Byne," written by Upendra Kishore Roychowdhury, and it was famously adapted into a live-action film by Satyajit Ray in 1969. Prof. Ranade's animated version brings a fresh and visually rich take on the classic tale, introducing it to a new generation of audiences while preserving its cultural significance. Prof. Shilpa Ranade’s version of the film is distinguished by its hand-drawn 2D animation, giving the film a unique, painterly aesthetic that sets it apart from modern 3D animated films. The animation reflects traditional Indian art styles, blending folk art influences with contemporary storytelling techniques. The colour palette and character designs are inspired by Indian culture, particularly drawing from Bengali and rural Indian visual traditions. The characters are quirky, exaggerated, and expressive, fitting the whimsical and fantastical tone of the story. The film was widely praised for its innovative animation style and the way it reimagined a beloved classic for contemporary audiences. It was selected for several prestigious international film festivals, including the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF), the New York International Children’s Film Festival, and the Mumbai Film Festival.
