Eros International has signed up leading Indian actress Kajol and her husband Ajay Devgan for a 3D animated feature, Toonpur Ka Super Hero.

To be directed by commercials filmmaker Kireet Khurana, the film will combine live-action and 3D animation in a story about a hero who accidentally lands in a world of cartoons and is transformed into a real-life hero.

The film is Eros' second production with the husband-and-wife team after You, Me And Hum, which was directed by Devgan.

Kumar Mangat's Big Screen Entertainment, which produced Omkara and the forthcoming No Smoking, will co-produce Toonpur Ka Super Hero with Eros.

Eros International India president Sunil Lulla said: 'Toonpur promises to be a family entertainer with a lot of adventure, romance, fun and the first 3D film with animation.'
