DQ Entertainment has signed an exclusive indoor theme park deal with Chiliad Procons, an Indian leader in the amusement industry space, at the Las Vegas Licensing Show, to open multiple indoor theme parks around DQE’s IPs such as the Jungle Book, Peter Pan and Robinhood.

The first project aka The Jungle Book TV series would be the franchise’s first global expansion via India that will debut in Mumbai in 2018, Delhi in 2019 and further expand across major metro cities over the next few years. The Park will have a unique touch to it: its rides would be mostly inspired by The Jungle Book tales and its culture.

It’s as close as India gets to a Disneyland equivalent. DQE is working closely with the creative teams behind Chiliad’s blockbuster theme park attractions to bring the characters, action and adventure of the popular TV series to life within the theme parks. Shares of DQ Entertainment edged up 1.5 per cent at ₹10.05 on the NSE.
