The Jon Favreau film is showing better trends than his live action version of The Jungle Book in India. The Lion King is the story of Simba who defeats his uncle Scar to re-claim his place as the King of the Jungle after his father Mufasa dies. The 1994 animated drama has been one of Disney’s most iconic films.
