A new Jungle Book-themed indoor park will debut in Mumbai in 2018, Delhi in 2019 and further expand across major metro cities over the next few years. Its rides will be mostly inspired by The Jungle Book tales and its culture.

Manoj Mishra, COO of DQE Group, commented, “The theme parks being developed by Chiliad Procons will be an entertainment destination for kids and family to experience the world of their favorite Jungle Book characters. All of the adventure, fun and action kids experience through a screen will now be all around them soon—in breathtakingly realistic Jungle ways. We are excited to partner with Chiliad in this endeavor and expect this theme park agreement to significantly boost our other licensing and merchandising efforts worldwide and anticipate this as a step forward in creating immense opportunities and value to us.”

Tapaas Chakravarti, managing director and CEO of DQE Group, said, “The Jungle Book has succeeded in creating a large fan following among kids across the world and this new partnership with Chiliad Procons will take Mowgli and his jungle friends come close to kids and family in India through their indoor theme-based parks.”

Prasuk Jain, managing director of Chiliad Procons, added, “We believe India is now growing in international influence and gaining a prominent voice in global entertainment and tourism, thanks to positive demographic factors within the Indian diaspora. We are happy to invest in such properties that in turn serve as a landmark for visitors from around the world! To accomplish such vision, we are excited to partner with DQE to introduce Jungle Book, an indoor park which we believe India needs and is waiting for. It will house all factors of adrenaline rush, a themed restaurant and much more to keep them alive and visitors experience something beyond their wildest imagination. The Jungle Book has been growing in popularity with fans around the globe and so are family fans, which are the key component of Chiliad Procons FECs. This collaboration will create a new entertainment powerhouse of passion and talent that will craft epic, imaginative experiences allowing a new exposure to the company for more associations to come.”
