Following the success of its debut IP, the studio continues to build India-born
stories for digital-first audiences
Mumbai,
May 11, 2026 : Kayhan Enterprises,
an integrated IP-led ecosystem with strategic focus on IP ownership and
creative exports has launched its second original IP, FAB 5, on Zee5 Kids,
further strengthening its vision of building culturally rooted stories from
India for audiences across digital platforms. The launch marks another key
milestone in the studio’s journey as an IP-led storytelling company focused on
creating scalable, character-driven content with long-term franchise potential.
The
launch follows the success of Kayhan’s debut original IP, “Chote Tara Ka Bada
Gadar,” which premiered on Zee Kids. Centered around the adventures of a
spirited young protagonist navigating playful chaos and imaginative challenges,
the show introduced audiences to Kayhan’s signature blend of humour, emotion,
and culturally rooted storytelling. Its successful reception established the
studio’s ability to translate original Indian narratives into engaging
mainstream kids’ entertainment.
Founded
by Dalbir Singh and Arushi Govil, Kayhan is being built through a distinctive
creative partnership that brings together vision and execution in equal
measure. As one of India’s most defining IP-creator couples, the two founders
combine storytelling ambition, worldbuilding expertise, and production
discipline to create and scale original IP from India. Their complementary
strengths are shaping Kayhan into an integrated creative ecosystem designed to
accelerate India’s shift from execution-led services to ownership-driven
storytelling.
Speaking
about the launch, Dalbir Singh, Co-Founder, Kayhan Entertainment,
said,“FAB 5 represents the direction we have always envisioned for Kayhan,
building stories that are rooted in Indian imagination while being universally
engaging. India has already proven its execution capabilities in animation and
VFX for global productions. The next step is ownership, and that is where our
focus lies. Through FAB 5, we are continuing our effort to build original IP
that can travel across platforms, formats, and audiences.”
Adding
to this, Arushi Govil, Co-Founder, Kayhan Entertainment,
said, “For us, children’s storytelling is about more than entertainment it is
about sparking imagination and encouraging young minds to think creatively. FAB
5 has been designed to immerse kids in a world where curiosity,
problem-solving, and courage come naturally through storytelling. At Kayhan,
our focus is on building stories that not only engage children in the moment,
but also inspire how they imagine, explore, and create.”
FAB
5 follows Anand, a kind ten-year-old who discovers a set of magical wooden toys
crafted years ago by a legendary, kind-hearted village toymaker known as
Dadaji. These toys: Rikki, Mimmi, Mitthu, and Mayur… are alive, infused with
the magical energy of Aranyavann after Dadaji bravely intervened to save a
powerful guardian, Zee. Chosen by a sacred Rudraksh left behind to find a true
hero, Anand transforms into ‘Super Anand,’ merging his spirit with his new toy
companions. But FAB 5 is not just a story about magical battles; it is a
coming-of-age journey rooted in universal emotions. Whether he is learning that
true strength lies in taking responsibility for careless mistakes, realizing
that clever teamwork outshines brute force, or discovering the power of empathy
to calm a frightened creature, Anand’s adventures mirror the everyday emotional
growth of a child. Each fast-paced eleven-minute episode blends action,
sophisticated humour, and heart, creating an emotionally intelligent world that
resonates far beyond the screen.
The
launch of FAB 5 further advances Kayhan’s long-term strategy of building an
integrated IP-led ecosystem spanning animation, gaming, digital storytelling,
education through Macra, and immersive experiences including AR and VR.
Conceived as Kayhan’s talent-development engine, Macra is focused on
identifying and nurturing the right creative talent across animation, VFX,
gaming, and digital storytelling equipping emerging creators with industry-led
mentorship, production exposure, and practical skills needed to build globally
relevant IP from India.
As
the studio expands its original content slate, its focus remains firmly on
building stories that can evolve across multiple formats and create lasting
value through transmedia storytelling.
