India, 8th October 2024: Nickelodeon India concluded a remarkable July-September quarter with innovative, pan-India campaigns that touched the lives of kids across the country. Despite it being a non-festive quarter, the brand’s immersive engagements—from bustling cities to local communities ensured its presence wherever kids are. Through on-ground and digital campaigns, Nickelodeon reaffirmed its position as the ultimate destination for kids by consistently delivering moments of joy and learning.
Nickelodeon’s ability to leverage key topical moments transformed special days into extraordinary experiences, sparking creativity and connection among kids across India. For Teacher’s Day, under the #FeatureYourTeacher campaign, Nicktoons Chikoo and Bunty visited Parvarish Special School and Ryan International School in Delhi, engaging kids and celebrating their mentors. On Friendship Day, Chikoo and Bunty brought excitement to Shrimad Rajchandra Divine Touch School in Ahmedabad, as part of the #ToastYourDost campaign. In Chennai, Nickelodeon partnered with Space Kidz India to offer an educational space exploration experience, led by Abhimanyu from Abhimanyu Ki Alien Family. Additionally, the release of the movie – Motu Patlu and Mission Kung Fu Kid saw Motu and Patlu delighting kids through interactive storytelling sessions and local tours in the city of Ahmedabad, blending entertainment with meaningful engagement.
