Cartoons
in India have a rich history, dating back to the 1930s. From the 1960s to
the 1990s, the country witnessed a golden era of animation, with iconic shows
like "Ramayana," "Mahabharata," and "Shaktimaan"
captivating audiences of all ages. However, the Indian animation industry faced
challenges in the 2000s, with limited budgets and a lack of creative freedom.
In recent years, with the rise of digital platforms and an increasing demand
for Indian content, the animation industry is undergoing a resurgence, with new
shows like "Chhota Bheem" and "Mighty Little Bheem" gaining
popularity among children. The Indian animation industry is also diversifying,
exploring new genres and themes, and collaborating with international partners
to create high-quality content for global audiences.
