MODERN TWIST TO A LEGEND: Roll No. 21.

Wondered what Lord Krishna would do if he had to cope with demanding teachers and homework without using his powers? Discover the answer as Cartoon Network transports the prankster of the divine realm to the modern world with its latest animated series ‘Roll No. 21' which starts on November 27 and 28, 5 p.m. and thereafter will be aired every weekend.

Kansa, the evil King of Mathura, returns to Earth as Kanishk to conquer and reign supreme over the land. Masking his cruel intentions under the disguise of being a great humanitarian and principal of a school for orphans called Mathura Anath Ashram, his real motive is to transform the children into an army of zombies and monsters. The Gods must act quickly before he assembles this army for his quest. Enter Lord Krishna — sent to Mathura as Kris. But there is a problem. On Earth, Lord Krishna who is a prankster by nature, has to live by certain rules and can at no point reveal his true identity. The moment he does he will have to return.

Watch Kris, clueless about the mortal ways of existence, tackle teachers, friends and homework with a little help from his school buddies, Radha and Sudama.
