Netflix and UNESCO have teamed together to promote India’s rich cultural history through the popular animated series Mighty Little Bheem on the streaming site.
Green Gold Animation produced the animated series, which debuted on the streaming platform in 2019. It revolves around the exploits of Bheem, a young child.
Netflix and UNESCO are teaming together to create a series of short movies titled “One Country, Incredible Diversity,” which will concentrate on India’s cultural journey, encompassing monuments, living heritage, performing arts, social practises, rituals, and holidays like Dussehra, Diwali, and Holi.
