POGO and Mumbai kids Go Green with Chhota Bheem

POGO, India's leading kids' channel, culminated its annual on-ground innitiave with a mega event in Mumbai. The month long activity called Bheem's Green Team crescendo with an engaging, entertaining & insightful extravaganza in the city replete with games, workshops, performances by superhero Chhota Bheem and Chutki and the surprise element of unveiling Kalia's costume.

Organized by POGO, Bheem's Green Team is the first of its kind "Go Green" event themed around kids' favorite superhero, Chhota Bheem. The event undertaken at a mall in Mumbai on December 14 & 15, 2013 saw participation from over 5000 kids and their parents. The two day event taught kids ways to protect the environment through games and workshops designed to entertain and be insightful.  Additionally, POGO and Chhota Bheem distributed over 5000 saplings amongst children encouraging them to proactively make their green contribution.

Highlight of the activity was an entertaining performance by Chhota Bheem and Chutki. Furthermore, kids were elated to meet and watch Kalia perform on-ground for the first time ever!  

The Bheem's Green Team campaign targeted kids and families across India via on-air promotions, online games and School Contact Programs culminating in a massive 2-city event with a single focus of encouraging kids to save the environment. On-air promotionalspots drove kids www.pogo.tv, where the Bheem's Green Team microsite hosted green tips, fun trivia, videos, etc.

However, the biggest eye-catcher on the microsite was the game application that allowed kids to grow and take care of their digital sapling. Finally, on-ground School Contact Programs in Mumbai and Delhi targeting over 10,000 students strengthened this message and invited kids to the ultimate event to meet Chhota Bheem and interact with him.

Mr. Krishna Desai, Senior Director & Network Head -Kids, Turner International India Pvt. Ltd. said, "As India's leading kids' channel, we strive to preserve POGO being a responsible brand. To this end one such endeavor was Bheem's Green Team, a multi-platform "Go Green" initiative.
