This summer, moms don’t have to worry about kids running out to play in the scorching heat. Hungama TV brings all the fun, laughter and adventure – ‘indoors’.   

Hungama TV promises to be the perfect picnic spot this vacation with a host of new shows being launched under the ‘Ha Ha Ha Hungama’ block. The ‘fun’tastic summer programming this year includes all new animated series - ‘Shuriken School’, ‘Being Ian’, ‘Kiteretsu’ and ‘Tensai Bakabon’. The laughter riot continues with the launch of new episodes of ‘Shin-Chan’, ‘Telematch’, ‘Kochikame’ and ‘Doraemon’. There’s more adventure coming your way with the new season of ‘Hero’ on Hungama TV from May 7 and for the young movie-buffs, its matinee time on Hungama TV too this summer!

The Masti just does not end this summer. Starting April 30, it’s time for the wacky ‘Pajama Pakdo’ contest! Hungama TV is invaded by wicked pyjamas that have escaped the high security central laundry! Kids are being invited to help police the channel and spot the pyjamas. Every pyjama counts. Kids need to catch as many pyjamas to win lots of exciting prizes.

Aparna Bhosle, Head of Programming and Production, Hungama TV, said, “Every summer, there is a considerable increase in eyeballs on kids’ channels. Hungama TV’s summer programming ups the ante on comedy and local programming to keep our young fans entertained at home.

”We are very excited about launching our Hungama theme song that captures the spirit of our audiences. We are hopeful that kids will sing along and dance to this theme through this season,” she added. The lyrics for the song have been penned by Abbas Tyrewalla and the music has been done by Vishal - Shekhar.

More about new launches:-

Tensai Bakabon

It’s a story of a gifted child, a genius in fact - hence his nickname "Tensai" (genius), but as he gets older, he deteriorated to his father's level - quite a drop. His younger brother Hajime however turns out to be the brightest bulb on this family tree.

The show mostly revolves around Bakabon's father. He goes around causing trouble, and sometimes trouble comes to him - in the form of his former classmates, who, for some reason, regard him as "The Great Philosopher," so they seek out his advice, which ends up with disastrous results.

Kiteretsu

The main character is a scientific genius boy named Kiteretsu, who has built a companion robot named Korosuke. He frequently travels in time with his friends and Korosuke in the time machine built by him.

Being Ian

Ian Kelley is a 12-year-old with the kind of imagination that goes “cut” in the night. In other words, he thinks life is a stage and he’s the director! Thanks to his Spielberg-like imagination, Ian tends to get himself into strange predicaments. But somehow he manages to walk away from each “set” with a sense of accomplishment, or a detention!

Shuriken School

The story revolves around a school where along with taking math and science lessons they also get to learn how to be an astronaut, sorcerer, rock star or a ninja. During their training they learn to fly over rooftops, melt into walls and disappear into a cloud of smoke. And you thought math was fun!
