Characters[edit]
Chhota Bheem: Bheem is an adventurous and fun-loving 11-year-old who is gifted with
extraordinary strength (his character is a take-off on Bheem character from the
epic Mahabharat). This power is a boon for Dholakpur, Bheem's village, which is constantly
beset by all kinds of perils. This child has a big heart and he always uses his strength to help
those who are wronged or needy and nabs culprits, robbers and is seen as a Guardian of the
innocent and poor people and also the animals.He is the protector of the world. Bheem loves
food and has a certain craving forladdoos, which in fact, gives him a surge of energy and makes
him even stronger than he normally is. These laddoos are often offered by Chutki. He has three
main friends called Chutki, Jaggu (a monkey) and Raju.
Chutki: Chutki is a eight-year-old girl. She is Bheem's closest friend, and assists Bheem on their
adventures. While she is responsible about her household chores and gentle towards all
creatures of the forest, she can be tough too, when the situation demands it. Surprisingly, she is
seen greedy for taking gold in the episode "The Curse of Bramhbhatt-Part 2". She has a soft
spot for Bheem and often becomes angry whenever Bheem interacts with any girl as can be
seen in episodes. She also has many ideas or tricks to help Bheem in many of his adventures
as seen in the episodes "Pirates on the ship", and "Hercules".
Raju: Raju is a cute and courageous four-year-old kid, whose role model is Bheem. Rajus size
belies his courage, which he gets from his father, the Senapati (chief officer) of the Kings army.
Raju also wants to be the Senapati of the Army. (seen in the episode "Chutki's Wish"). He is
very good in archery and has won the "Arjuna Cup". He appears as the protagonist in the spinoff
movie "Mighty Raju".
Jaggu Bandar: Jaggu is a talking monkey. Jaggu and his group play Lord Rama's adventures
and he will be Ravana.Jaggu has his own special way of solving problems, using tricks and his
amazing sense of humour. Jaggu and Bheem always have fun together, be it exploring forests
or helping people with their chores. From him, Bheem learns useful techniques like swinging
from trees. Whenever they are really hungry, its Jaggu who assists Bheem in stealing laddoos.
He also loves playing tricks on Dholu, Bholu and Kalia. He wants to be the Protector of all
animals in the jungle (seen in the episode "Chutki's Wish").
Kalia: Kalia or Kalia Pehalwan, is a 10 year old bully. He is also very greedy and tries to become
rich by cheating. Kalia has two silly followers, Dholu and Bholu, who sometimes help him in his
plans and at other times completely abandon him. He often blows his own trumpet by claiming
he is the only strongest and courageous person whenever any problem arises he runs away. In
order to make Bheem lose, he often overhears what Bheem is planning. However, at times he is
seen helping Bheem in common causes or in attempts to save Dholakpur.
Dholu and Bholu: Dholu and Bholu are identical twins and followers of Kalia Pahelwan. Though
they are not strong themselves, they bask in Kalias strength and are arrogant with the other
kids. Occasionally, they allow themselves to be easily bribed by Bheem and Chutki and are
therefore not always loyal to Kalia. Whenever Dholu and Bholu blurts out the truth about Kalia
(like telling Kalia being scared of anything) they get whacked mercilessly by Kalia.
Kichak: Kichak is a 16 year old wrestler from Pehelwanpur. He is later introduced in the series.

of friends & sidekicks like Chipru, Manna, Motu & Birju etc. who aids him but also gets the
punishment with him. He then was noticed helping and advising a participant in the episode
