Pakdam Pakdai (transl. Chasing), also known as Rat-A-Tat is an Indian Flash-animated comedy television series, formerly on Nickelodeon India and later on Sonic Nickelodeon.

The show began airing on 27 May 2013. Pakdam Pakdai is narrated by Nana, the eponymous narrator. Worldwide releases of the show, however, omit these in favor of silent comedy.

Mobile video games based on the series have been released by Indian software companies such as Tangiapps.

Synopsis

[edit]

Doggy Don is an anthropomorphic little pink dog, who resides in the modern suburbs of an unspecified location somewhere in South India. Unfortunately, he shares his house with three troublemaking mice: Chhotu, Lambu and Motu, dubbed the "Chuha Party" ("transl. Rat Party"). Don is usually accompanied by his older brother, Colonel, who has a stronger grudge against the mice with his shorter temper, and Ballu, a cranky and aggressive Great Dane, who is Don's neighbor.

Every episode in the series circulates around some type of chaos that the mice produce and the havoc that ensues as the dogs attempt to stop the situation from escalating further, only to either make things worse or take the blame for the mice's shenanigans. Ranging from stealing food to framing others for their own misdeeds and even hijacking vehicles to go on joyrides, the mice will go to any length possible to wreak havoc and irritate the people around them and escalate their situations to extremely outrageous heights, usually, but not exclusively the dogs.

Characters

[edit]

Their names were localized in English-language releases, with the exception of Don, whose name was simply shortened.

Main

[edit]
  • Doggy Don is a dog with pink fur, a brown nose, and a light pink muzzle and stomach. Doggy Don is the titular main protagonist of Indian series Pakdam Pakdai. He is usually irritated by the mice. His days are nearly always ruined by them in some way - therefore, he always plans to get revenge on them by retaliating in a multitude of different ways, and rarely succeeds. In spite of his luck, he is quite intelligent and can quickly solve his way out of a situation if the mice don't interfere (and they rarely don't). His catchphrase is "Don se bachna mushkil hi nahi, naa mumkin hai" (Escaping from Don is not only difficult, it is impossible). Don lives in a house with his elder brother, the three mice, and later Thaw. His house has a built-in laboratory, which he occasionally uses to conspire plans against the mice.
  • The Mice
    • Chhotu is the leader of the Chuha Party and is the oldest out of all of them. He is a mouse with yellow fur, brown hair, a red nose, light yellow feet, muzzle and stomach and he also wears spectacles. Chhotu is funny, hyperactive, and impish for pranking Don with his group. He's also the most ingenious for coming up with ideas on situations or methods. Despite this, he has himself defeated of others, which frequently leads to his defeat at the hands of the dogs and sometimes his own friends.
    • Lambu is a mouse, with purple fur, black hair, a red nose, white gloves, yellowish green eyes, and a light purple stomach. He’s the middle child of the group. He is described as cool, laid-back and chill compared to the others, but still doesn't shy away from having fun with his friends and generally wreaking havoc. He is quite the jokester and he likes to hang around with others. His catchphrase is "Don't make me angry".
    • Motu is the youngest of the Chuha Party. He is a mouse with grayish blue fur, a pink nose, white gloves, black tail, a light grayish blue stomach, and green eyes. As the glutton of the organization, he is fixated on food most of the time, which drives his group nuts.

Recurring

[edit]
  • Colonel is the overprotective, aggressive and occasionally arrogant older brother of Don. He is a muscular dog with green fur, a brown nose, light green muzzle and stomach, soldier’s hat (as he was a former soldier), tags, and white gloves. He almost always helps Don for dealing with the mice's shenanigans. He's quite strong compared to the others.
  • Major Saab Jr. is Don and Karnal's friend, who is also a dog. The brothers adopted him when Thaw's father, who was part of the Air Force, was killed in a helicopter accident. He is younger in age and smaller in size compared to both Don and Karnal. He is often seen hanging out with Don and Karnal and competing against the mice. He seems to be quite a gourmand, and will usually tend to eat everything in the refrigerator for a single meal.
  • Ballu is a cranky, easily angered muscular looking Great Dane with gray fur, a brown nose, and black spots. He lives in the house next door. A running gag of the show shows Don, Karnal or the mice doing something which aggravates him or causes him to suffer in a situation, and as punishment, he'll pummel them in various fashions, either onscreen or offscreen. He and Karnal are of the same age, and are sometimes shown to be friends. He often beats Don and Karnal up.
