MUMBAI: Toon Disney is set to offer kids some scintillating action over the next two months with Jetix Action Station, where kids will get a fill of action, adventure and humor featuring some of the superheroes from popular shows such as Fantastic Four, Gargoyles and Power Rangers Ninja Storm.
This will be aired on weekdays on Toon Disney’s Jetix with Power Rangers Ninja Storm at 4:30 pm, Fantastic Four at 5:30 pm and Gargoyles at 6:30 pm.
Boosted by martial arts-based action and adventure, the Power Rangers Ninja Storm saga revolves around ordinary teens who take on extraordinary powers to defend the world when intergalactic evil threatens the Earth.
The Fantastic Four is an epic series of one of the mightiest and most successful group of defenders ever assembled including Spider-Man, the X-Men and the Incredible Hulk.
The Gargoyles, on the other hand, are a race of very powerful winged beings who were the defenders of a keep in the year 994 A.D. Stone by day, warriors by night; they were betrayed by the humans they had sworn to protect, frozen in stone by a magic spell for a thousand years. Now, in Manhattan, New York, the spell is broken, and they live again!

Mukta Arts and Green Gold ink MOU to animate iconic film IPs
Kalicharan, Karz, Hero, Karma, Ram Lakhan to spawn animated shows plus features.
MUMBAI: When classic hindi movie meets animation, the result is a fresh reel of nostalgia with a cartoon twist. Mukta Arts Ltd. and Green Gold Animation have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to collaborate on animated shows and feature films drawn from Mukta Arts’ four-decade treasure trove of iconic IPs. The partnership taps Mukta’s SGM Animation Studio launched in 2025 as its dedicated animation and games arm and Green Gold’s proven track record in building scalable, homegrown franchises. Creative teams from both sides have already kicked off discussions, with the first project currently in development.
The slate will draw inspiration from landmark Mukta films including Kalicharan, Karz, Hero, Karma, Ram Lakhan, Khalnayak, Saudagar and Iqbal, plus character-led spin-offs from those universes. The aim is to reimagine these stories for today’s young, global audiences while preserving their emotional core.
Green Gold Animation (home of Chhota Bheem) founder and CEO Rajiv Chilaka said, “This partnership with SGM Studios allows us to apply our experience in building long-lasting animation IPs to a truly iconic film catalogue. Together, we aim to create animated worlds that are rooted in these legendary stories, yet designed to connect with today’s young, global audiences.”
Mukta Arts Ltd. filmmaker and founder Subhash Ghai added, “Mukta Arts has always believed in creating stories with lasting emotional value. Through animation, we are extending our IP into a new medium for the next generation.”
In an industry where timeless tales never go out of fashion, this collaboration promises to bring beloved characters back to life with a modern, animated glow proving that some stories are too good to stay in live-action. Stay tuned for the first animated frame to drop.
