Galli Galli Sim Sim is home to four lovable muppets, namely Chamki, Aanchoo, Googly and Boombah.

Actor Rahul Bose shot a segment with the adorable muppet Googly, which highlights the importance of participation among children. While shooting, the duo emphasized on the message that it is not about winning or losing a game, but the enjoyment that one gets by participating which matters the most.

Chamki and Googly learnt the meaning of 'in the middle' as they played a game with Punjabi pop singer Daler Mehndi. Ace percussionist, Sivamani shot a segment with Googly and human cast Jugaadu, which will communicate the importance of social relations to help learn higher skills. Sivamani also shared the basics of learning drums with the characters on the sets.
