[edit] Language

Nickelodeon India has been alternating its languages between Hindi and English. Originally broadcasting in English, it swapped to Hindi from 2004 to 2006, but switched back to English in June 2009; currently, it dubs all the anime it airs into Hindi, while keeping English language shows such as Spongebob Squarepants in the original audio form.

Nick India contains a lot of cartoon programmes that appeal to children such as SpongeBob SquarePants, Ninja Hattori, Perman, and Mighty Cat Masked Niyander amongst many others.
