Earning Rs 25,000 per Second

Aamir Khan's Taare Zameen Par seems to have revived clay animation in India, as Dhimant Vyas informs us. Vyas, who created the beautiful animation in TZP's title track, tells us how he did it, and how lucrative the profession is.

Clay animation has been used in commercials and television but it has never been used in Bollywood. I have known Aamir from the time Lagaan's DVD was released. I was asked to make caricatures of the Lagaan team at that time.

When Aamir came to me, he had no idea what clay animation was. So when we were discussing animation for Taare Zameen Par, he was discussing 2D animation and hand-made painting animation. But when he saw my sample work in clay, he loved it and decided to try it out. source
