Nick, India's premier destination for children’s entertainment, has once again proven its dominance by securing the No. 1 spot in the kids’ category for an impressive 11th consecutive year. This remarkable achievement underscores the channel’s consistent ability to connect with young audiences across the country.

Central to this enduring success are Nick’s powerful and beloved homegrown IPs such as ‘Chikoo Aur Bunty’, ‘Abhimanyu Ki Alien Family’, and others. Among them, ‘Chikoo Aur Bunty’ continues to reign supreme, holding onto its position as the No. 1 show in the kids’ segment for three straight years. Meanwhile, the ever-popular ‘Motu Patlu’ retains its iconic status, remaining a cherished favorite among both kids and nostalgic older viewers alike.

These flagship shows not only define Nick’s content strategy but also elevate it above the competition. With both the top two shows in the genre under its banner, Nick has solidified its unmatched bond with its audience—making it the only channel to achieve such a feat and reaffirming its place at the very heart of children’s entertainment in India.

About this stellar achievement, Alok Jain, President - Entertainment, JioStar, “With 4 out of 5 kids in India tuning into our kids’ franchise, and the rise of co-viewing,particularly among young parents, we see this as a testament to the trust, relatability and deeper engagement our stories create. Shows like Chikoo Aur Bunty, which have held the #1 spot in the kids’ category for 3 consecutive years, demonstrate the powerful connection Nick enjoys with kids and families. Nick being the No.1 kids’ channel for 11 years straight is not just a reflection of viewership, but the deep emotional bond we’ve cultivated across generations. We look forward to bringing in non-stop entertainment for kids and families with our beloved characters and engaging stories.”
