MUMBAI: The Multimedia Informatics talent show Mother n Child grand finale round will be held on Sunday, 1 October in Mumbai. The telecast partners are Hungama TV and the show will be aired as a two part program on 14 and 15 October.
This show aspires to identify and nurture talent in young children between the age 2 ? and 7 years old. The sixth edition of the event will pay tribute to the bond between children and their mothers and will witness mother-children pairs performing jointly through singing, dancing, mimicry, satire, comic skits, enacting fables.
The ‘Mother n Child‘ event promises to help imbibe in a child, confidence, poise, stage presence, team spirit and also groom their basic personality. The auditions were held in the premises of schools such as R. N. Podar, Sailee International, Don Bosco and nurseries like Anandi Playschool, Tiny Steps and Junior Crafting, Blooming Buds. The grooming sessions for the event were held earlier this week and 40 shortlisted participants were called for the grand rehearsals. The finalists were given tips to better their performance as well as briefed about the camera angles and stage settings, states an official release.
Multimedia Informatics Pvt. Ltd. distributed enrollment forms through various activity classes, hobby classes, dance classes and many such other intuitions. It also had extensive mobile van publicity at various places in Mumbai in addition to promotional activities at malls and multiplexes. It also had hoardings at strategic locations across the city. At every audition centre, an average of about 45 – 50 Mother n Child pairs participated. The final selection decision will be based on the judges, adds the release.
Multimedia Informatics Pvt. Ltd. Shashank Mane says, “The bonds of motherhood are stronger than any other bond. A mother is also the one who identifies and nurtures the talent in a child. Keeping this in mind, Multimedia Informatics came up with a unique event called ‘Mother n Child‘, a chance for an early start to hone the talent in your child. Being our third event on Mumbai level, we decided to make it even bigger this year by reaching out to maximum schools as possible. And we have managed to get phenomenal response from participating schools and nurseries.”
Sagarika (singer, model, and actress) one of the celebrity mothers, who participated in the earlier events said, “I would like to be a participant when my child grows eligible to participate. But I am not sure whether I will be able to perform with confidence and these people do.”
Another celebrity mother Walucha Robinson (model) added, “It‘s not very easy to stand on stage and perform but that‘s how I started…I was young when I started out on a small little stage…but you get where you want to in life when you start small

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.
