Nikhil & Jay follows the funny, relatable stories of two brothers, Nikhil and Jay, who live in a multicultural family. With mum, Amma, who is Indian Tamil by heritage, dad, Appa, who is English and with both Indian and English grandparents, their life is a rich blend of customs, traditions, festivals, food and music.

Full of curiosity, joy and a cheeky sense of adventure, Nikhil & Jay authentically represents the everyday experience of dual heritage children with warmth, heart, humour and family themes that children all over the world will relate to.

British Tamil actor Charithra Chandran (Bridgerton, Alex Rider, How to Date Billy Walsh, Instructions for A Teenage Armageddon, Dune Prophecy) leads a diverse team of actors, writers, animators, composers and directors.

Nikhil & Jay will premiere on CBeebies in 2024.
