Doordarshan to air new season of 'Galli Galli Sim Sim' | TelevisionPost.com
MUMBAI: A new season of ‘Galli Galli Sim Sim’, the
Indian adaptation of internationally acclaimed TV
series Sesame Street, will air on Doodarshan every
Saturday at 10.30 am.
Speaking about the show’s new season, Sesame
Workshop India managing director Sashwati
Banerjee said, “Through positive role-modelling by
our well-researched characters, we are able to
bring about a positive change in little kids who
start believing and trusting their beloved muppets.
Hence, when Chamki talks to her friend Googly
about saving water, our little viewers take it
seriously and start acting towards water
conservation”.
Hisham Mundol, executive director at Children’s
Investment Fund Foundation which funds ‘Galli Galli
Sim Sim’, said, “Our partnership with Sesame
Workshop has brought interesting synergies to the
table and has given us new insights into how
content for kids can be approached and adapted in
countries like India.”
“Through the power of muppets and media, ‘Galli
Galli Sim Sim’ in its own unique way is impacting
young Indian learners, helping them become
informed decision makers of tomorrow. It has been
our constant endeavour to engage with like-minded
partners like Sesame who showcase their passion
towards providing access to high-quality early
childhood content,” Mundol added.
Over the last decade, the reach of ‘Galli Galli Sim
Sim’ has increased steadily across the country.
With season 7 being watched extensively by eight
million kids, the show has witnessed tremendous
success in reaching its mission of helping kids grow
smarter, stronger and kinder.
The show will be broadcast in Marathi on DD
Sahyadri and in Gujarati on DD Girnar as well later
this year.
