Characters[]

  • Chikoo: He is an 11-year-old boy who is the elder sibling of Bunty. He is calm and relaxed, optimistic, friendly, reliable, witty, fun-loving and a quick thinker. He has the answers to all of life’s problems. The only problem is that nobody agrees with him and his approach. He is the ultimate shortcut master. He loves cricket and aspires to become a cricketer but doesn’t want to work too hard. He loves to bat but feigns injuries when he must field. And often, he even manages to get away with it.
  • Bunty: He is the 10-year-old younger brother of Chikoo. He is a cheerful ball of energy, crafty, attention-seeking, provocative, sarcastic, outgoing, quick learner, fast on his feet, has an entrepreneurial spirit and is a jack of all trades. He tends to get carried away when he is in the zone and makes amends that may not be needed in the first place. But his failures do not discourage him one bit. He thinks that one day he will invent such a product that he will never have to study again to find a job. He is an expert in fixing things and also loves dancing and considers Michael Jackson as his idol.
  • Papa (Mr. Batra): He is a rational, perpetually tired, noninterfering, practical, naïve and humble father. His life's mantra is, everything will work out just fine, on its own. He likes anything and everything that can help him relax – reading, meditating, singing, walks, listening to music and dislikes having to punish the boys, his me time getting interrupted, quarrelling with his wife.
  • Mummy (Mrs. Batra): She is loving, anxious, borderline obsessive, sensible and straightforward. She is constantly finding ways to motivate her boys to do well in life. She is not as easy to fool as the father. She tries hard to run the house and have everything under control.
  • Barfi: He is the family's pet dog, who is playful, intelligent and quick-learner. Barfi is not even remotely as ferocious as he looks.
  • Dada: He is a disciplinarian who believes in living by a schedule. Early to bed and early to rise is what he'd love to get the boys to follow. He wakes up every morning at 5 AM for a walk. He is pretty active for his age. He often taunts his son about how he failed to discipline his boys.
  • Dadi: She is quite the opposite of Dada. She supports the boys' extracurricular activities and believes there are alternate career paths that can be successful. She is okay that both boys are not studious but want to become cricketers and dancers, respectively. She is socially active and has a large friend circle.
