Abhaya!! excellent video on the internals of Amar Chitra Katha. ACK has a special place in everyone's mind. I hope they leverage this advantage and create adaptations beyond the comic form, audio/visual etc so that kids of future generations can learn our history in this creative form.

Awesome. :)Great to see such a fascinating process behind making one single panel! Wah! We truly need to support the comic industry in India.

I LOVE TINKLE..

its awesome to learn how much work goes in to make a single comic..

i think Tinkle should go the disney way.. its high time..

That was fantastic. Our cartoonists have world class talent and it shows in the huge readership. Indian comics should be made available in DVD format or through iTunes to reach a wider audience.

Very pleased with this effort. During my childhood, I enjoyed Amar Chitra Comics immensely. Today, being a father myself, I am glad that these treasures are still available for my children (and myself!) to enjoy.

I'm deeply surprised that this excellent video about the history of Indian comics is going unnoticed with just a mere 621 hits so far. It's a must watch for childern and adults who have been fasinated by comics and for those who do not know much about Indian comics. A very good effort by those who created it, and a very special note of thanks for the guy who poster it, cheers..
