Bhavesh & Dhiren Sheth with Ganesha-Krishna Bobblehead

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], September 30: Western countries have given superheroes to the world in the form of Batman and Superman. But is it really true that only such countries have that? If someone says yes, that means he or she is not aware of the power of ancient Indian historical characters. Most adults in India, especially those over 40, have grown up listening to the Ramayana and Mahabharata stories from their grandma or grandpa. More nuclear families and greater mobility are results of modern life. Nowadays, TV, films, and mobile devices are where children and teenagers get their stories from. Indian children have taken a natural liking to the comic book characters and miniatures that Hollywood has been introducing to the world through its films for a long time. Superman, Batman, and many others are only a few examples of characters with backgrounds in adventures, bravery, and conflict. Mumbai-based toy manufacturer, BUDDYZ, wants to change all that and give Indian children their real & original super-icons back.
