After a huge success of Monster Hunt 2 in China and Hong Kong, the film will grasp all the attention of the Indian audiences. In this upcoming film, the adorable little radish monster, Wuba is on his own journey through monster realm, and parts his way from his parents and friends. The film is directed by Raman Hui, the fantasy comedy is all set to release on 11th of May in English, Hindi, Tamil and Telugu.

“The funny thing was that because of my name, Raman, people in India thought I was at least half Indian, because my name is totally Indian. My father wanted to call me “Raymond” but he didn’t know how to spell it and he spelled it wrong, so on my birth certificate I have an Indian name and that name stuck.” Comments, Raman Hui.

Adding to this, Raman Hui mentioned, “That helped a lot, because I learned to understand their jokes in Mandarin. When I first got there I didn’t understand a lot of what they were talking about, but by living there and becoming friends with people I worked with I gradually adapted to the Chinese culture pretty well I guess. Before I went to China, Dreamworks sent me to India for 2 years, and India was a very different place too.”
