What happens

Bhagmati – The Queen of Fortunes is a 2005 Indian Hindi-language partly-animation film written and directed by Ashok Kaul, and it is the first Indian film which is almost two-thirds animated, with "live actors" doing the rest. The film is based on the love story between Prince Mohammad Quli Qutb Shah of Hyderabad and Bhagmati. At 2 hours and 40 minutes, the film was billed as "the world's longest animated film that also has living characters". (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
