Nick’s Jadoo Space Challenge to hit Mumbai and Delhi
MUMBAI: Nick is all set to give kids’ a summer vacation finale they’ll never forget! The channel’s ground promotion activity — Jadoo Space Challenge will give kids a chance to get up close and personal with Jadoo.
Jadoo Space Challenge will hit Mumbai on 12 June and in Delhi on 19 June.
Jadoo Space Challenge will involve the adaptation of Jadoo’s home planet Tarkopar on ground, very much like its on-air version on J Bole Toh Jadoo, complete with mushroom-shaped dwellings, two suns, smoke-filled craters, alien creatures, comets, stars, space transportation pods and more. Kids can also get Tarkopar Tattoos, alien hairstyles, space-on-your-face painting, try the Moonwalker, bounce on trampolines etc – there’s no dearth of things to do! In Mumbai, kids will be treated with live performances.
During the four-hour event, kids will also be gifted special Space Challenge gear like alien antennae, glow sticks etc. Moonbiker Races, Alien Blaster, Khajoor Mein Atka, Grahon ka Khel, a customised Jadoo bowling alley, Aar ya Paar, and Tarkopar Chakra are just some of the exciting and novel challenges they can take on. Kids will be given 10 tokens at entry that they can use to participate in each game and if they win, they get back 10 tokens apart from a prize. All tokens won will be contributed towards Jadoo’s final points tally.
The grand finale is a unique basketball match between Jadoo and his arch enemy, the evil Namitshak. The match, reminiscent of the one in that other Jadoo starrer Koi Mil Gaya, will be packed with action, magical spells, drama and outer space tricks.
Jadoo will be visiting several locations in each city – malls and amusement parks. Kids can also log on to www.nicksplat.com, call on 1250111555 or sms “Jadoo” to 6882 to get passes.
Jadoo’s Space Challenge has been sponsored by McDonald’s and Britannia Treat Duet in association with Frito Lay and Parry’s Butter Scotch.
