The event also witnessed Prime Minister Narendra Modi giving a special video message addressing the participants about the importance and values of practicing yoga. Together, the Nicktoons not only spread the joy of yoga but also instilled a sense of mindfulness and self-awareness in the hearts of those who attended.
Nicktoons have been actively advocating a healthy mind and body amongst children through initiatives like #YogaSeHiHoga.

Nickelodeon has been celebrating Yoga Day virtually in partnership with AYUSH Ministry to inculcate yoga habits and highlight the importance of building a healthier immune system. The digital partnership was extensively promoted through interactive posts, videos, followed by a nationwide contest that reached out to over 6,30,000 mothers & kids combined through digital mediums and 3000+ entries received under the Yoga contest hosted on the brand platform.
