EMERYVILLE (CBS SF) – Disney•Pixar has released a preview clip to their latest animated short Sanjay's Super Team. The seven-minute film will show prior to "The Good Dinosaur" when the film is released in theaters on November 25th.

Sanjay's Super Team tells the story about the relationship of a deeply religious Hindu father and his young, western idealistic son who often daydreams of three Hindu Gods as superheroes. Half-monkey, half-god, Hanuman - Durga, the goddess of power and protection and the blue-skinned Vishnu, representing preservation.
