Commenting on the acquisition, Ahmed Al Rayyes, Commercial Director of Global Village said: "Angry Birds has grown into a global phenomenon with a continuously growing audience on an international level and Global Village is proud to be the first destination in the region to offer its guests the opportunity to witness these characters in person. We are also very excited to be bringing 'Chhota Bheem' outside of India for the very first time in the cartoon's history. Every season we work towards offering our guests new and exciting entertainment shows; therefore, partnering with international brands such as 'Angry Birds' & 'Chhota Bheem' is part of this very initiative to ensure our guests receive world class experience."
