Discovery Kids has just launched a new animation series, 'Akbar & Birbal'. The tales of famous Emperor Akbar and his trusted adviser Birbal have been passed on from generation to generation, enthralling young and old listeners alike. The series will take its viewers to the era of Mughals where they will witness amusing exchanges between Akbar and Birbal. The show went on air on March 10, 2014, and will air everyday at 2 PM.

Rahul Johri, Senior VP and General Manager – South Asia and Head of Revenue, Pan-Regional Ad Sales and Southeast Asia, Discovery Networks Asia-Pacific said, “Discovery Kids would continue to bring engaging content that inspires children to believe in traditional wisdom and also inculcate moral values in them. Expanding our bouquet of indigenous titles, Akbar & Birbal will entertain the viewers with its clever wit and exciting storytelling.”

Birbal who was in the court of the Emperor Akbar is considered one of the best loved figures in the folklore of India. He will be seen outsmarting everyone, even the Emperor sometimes, by his exceptional wisdom, presence of mind and his excellent problem solving skills.

Birbal was popularly known by this name in the court but his real name was Mahesh Das. It is believed that he belonged to a poor Brahmin family of Tikawanpur on the bank of the Yamuna but it was only by virtue of his sharp intellect that he rose to be a minister at the court of Akbar.

Entertainingly narrated in three languages – English, Hindi and Tamil – this multilingual series encourages smooth language development in children and also makes the experience of listening to stories more enjoyable by offering popular stories in a familiar language. Akbar & Birbal series consists of beautifully animated and captivatingly narrated stories which bring to life traditional wisdom.
