About Us

The brainchild of Ritika and Abhishek Talwar, Biplob World Pvt. Ltd. (BWPL) creates and promotes content that educates & informs young children on:

  • Sustainability and understanding the SDGs
  • The rich cultural heritage & history of India

We believe that stories are the best engagement format for children to learn something new. Not only do stories make the learning and discovering process more accessible to young minds, it also firmly anchors the lesson in easily recognisable situations. A lesson learnt through stories is a lesson for life!

Our first title, ‘Adventures of Biplob the Bumblebee – Volume 1’ was published by Penguin Random House India in 2019, making it to the Nielsen500 list twice that year. Since then, we've published 25+ titles, clocking over 6.8 lakh copies in sales, with 50+ titles in the pipeline till 2026.

Besides books, we've created S.T.E.A.M games based on our stories and featuring our characters. Each of these is an immersive experience for children and adults alike. The games bring home the message of Sustainability through engaging and thought-provoking formats, providing hours of learning and fun for the entire family!
