Dangal TV forays into kids genre with fantasy show ‘Nikki Aur Jadui Bubble’
MUMBAI: School’s out and summer vacations are around the corner. Due to the second Covid wave tearing through the country, children have no choice but to stay cooped indoors. Like last year during lockdown, kids TV viewing is expected to rise again. In an attempt to reach out to capitalise on this opportunity and reel in a new set of viewers, Dangal TV is all set to debut Nikki Aur Jadui Bubble – a fantasy show that will take viewers on a magical journey. Nikki Aur Jadui Bubble will narrate the story of a young orphan named Nikki, who sets off on a quest to find her missing parents, along with her fun-loving magician friend Bubble.
The show will premiere on Tuesday, 20 April 2021 at 6.30PM and will thereafter air from Monday to Friday exclusively on Dangal TV.
Produced by Creative Eye, Nikki Aur Jadui Bubble will entertain viewers with its power-packed and visually appealing storytelling. With Maisha Dixit as Nikki and Tanmay Rishi as the quirky and mischievous Bubble, the show will also have Himmanshoo Malhotra as Nikki’s magician father Shiv, and Lavina Tandon as evil magician Jhanjharika. Gulfam Khan, Sheetal Dabholkar and Sriniwas Kale will be seen playing pivotal roles.
Intrigued by magic, and separated from her parents, Nikki desires to follow her father’s footsteps of becoming a magician someday. It is only when Nikki lands up in the orphanage does she meet her secret magician friend Bubble. It is along with Bubble and his magic that Nikki sets out to become friends with the rest of the kids while continuing her quest to find her missing parents while encountering Jhanjharika, the evil sorceress.
