101 Dalmatians

101 Dalmatians (1996) is a live‑action Disney remake of the 1961 animated classic, directed by Stephen Herek. When the supremely stylish and deviously obsessed Cruella De Vil (Glenn Close) abducts nearly all the Dalmatian puppies in London to make herself a spotted fur coat, faithful parents Pongo and Perdita, along with a coalition of brave animal allies, embark on a daring rescue mission. The screenplay by John Hughes (based on Dodie Smith’s original novel) brings humor, adventure, and heart to this family-friendly escapade, balancing slapstick thrills with emotional warmth, while none of the animals speak—adding charm to the live-action realism. The film performed strongly at the box office, earning over $320 million globally, anchored by Glenn Close’s standout performance as the unforgettable villainess Cruella De Vil. 101 Dalmatians - official trailer Watch 101 Dalmatians on  Jio Hotstar
