Plot

Sanju is a young and compassionate boy with boundless courage. Fate leads him to an extraordinary discovery one fateful day—a magical pencil imbued with the power to bring the sketches it creates to life.

As Sanju begins to grasp the astonishing abilities of the magical pencil, he inadvertently draws the attention of a comical gang, led by the gangster Tiger. Standing beside Tiger is a malevolent black magician named Kalicharan who wants the pencil for its limitless potential.

In every episode, Sanju employs the enchanted pencil to aid his friends in remarkable ways. Meanwhile, the relentless gang, under Tiger's leadership, continues their determined pursuit of the pencil, sometimes almost succeeding, only to be foiled by Sanju's clever tactics and unwavering determination.

The second season centres on an alien, Shaan, and his adventures with the magical pencil. [6] The third season is about Sanju and Shaan's adventures in a magic school called Jadoo High, and in the fourth season, Sanju travels to the year 2022 to protect his family. [7]
