Have you heard of Bhooshan’s Junior? It had the best week in the biz!

This young animation studio from India is working with JoJo Siwa, which Kidscreen readers rewarded with this week’s Gold Star.
February 2, 2026

When former Nickelodeon star JoJo Siwa decided that being a mainstream pop idol wasn’t for her, she returned to kids content and picked a lesser-known Indian studio—Bhooshan’s Junior—to support her ambitious animation initiative. That’s a big win for Bhooshan’s, which is why readers gave the company this week’s Gold Star!

You can read what we wrote about Bhooshan’s Junior—as well as runners-up Zack Olin, Simba Dickie Group, Thunderbird Entertainment and a combo of PhatMojo, Spin Master and Story Kitchenright here.
