Mainstream entertainment is teaching our kids all the wrong lessons disguised as fun—and we NEED your support to change this!
WHY we are CROWDFUNDING?
At Sochu, we believe entertainment is food for the soul.
Children absorb the world around them like sponges, and what they watch shapes who they become. Sadly, most popular entertainment today is filled with violence and mindlessness, designed to be addictive.
Sochu is different. Our best-selling books have already brought value to countless kids across India, and now we’re bringing these stories to life through animation—making these stories accessible to every child in India.
By pre-ordering from Sochu, you’ll help fund our mission to create meaningful, nonviolent entertainment for kids everywhere.
Together, we can shape a brighter future for our children!

Through Sochu, we want to instill the idea that thinking is fun—and it’s for everyone!
Sochu aims to spark children’s imaginations with entertainment that broadens perspectives, helps them navigate life’s pressures, and introduces them to the rich diversity of society.
Sochu embodies essential 21st-century skills like collaboration, nonviolent communication, creative thinking, problem-solving, gender equality, empathy, kindness, experiential learning, and more—all while keeping the fun and entertainment alive!
Are Sochu stories really that impactful?
In just 24 months, we’ve sold over 1 lakh Sochu Books becoming a best-selling children's book series in India. This is a proof of the immense value that Sochu Books bring in children’s lives today.
Countless parents and children have shared how these stories have positively impacted them, sparking creativity, connection, and growth. The value that not only children, but parents too find in Sochu stories is truly extraordinary!
Here are just a few examples of the impact of Sochu stories (out of many):
- After reading Book 10, a three-year-old girl from Hyderabad has stopped drinking soft drinks and does not let anyone in the family drink them.
- An eleven-year-old boy from Kolkata chose to get Sochu Books instead of a smartwatch for his birthday.
- After reading Book 6, a five-year-old from Kolkata buys only one toy at a time and plays with it for a long time instead of buying many.
- Numerous children who never liked reading are now avid readers because they started with Sochu!
Educators and Psychologists Approve and Highly Recommend Sochu!
‘Sochu Books are my go-to survival kit with my kids! I’ve also used them with my clients. These books are a wonderful way to teach emotional intelligence to children.’
– Dr. Era Dutta, Mindwellness
Renowned child psychologists, educators, and facilitators vouch for the transformative value Sochu brings to children’s lives, including:

…and many more!
Our content is powerful and created with the child's best interest in our heart and mind.
Where Does the Money Go?
Each episode costs us ₹10 Lakhs to produce. This is way below the industry standard cost in India, which is close to ₹14-16 Lakhs per episode. We have created our own streamlined method of making the best quality of animation in the lowest possible cost in-house.
We’ve already created a few episodes, and with 36 episodes planned across Series 1, 2, and 3 (12 episodes each), there’s still a long way to go.
Your support helps bring these stories to life!
