CHACHA CHAUDHARY AND FORMULA RACE: CHACHA CHAUDHARY ENGLISH

by Pran Kumar Sharma

Once cartoonist Pran struck upon an idea of a wise oldman who solves problems with his sharp intellect. Thus CHACHA CHAUDHARY was born in 1971.Tall and robust SABU, who is an inhabitant of planet Jupiter, gave Chaudhary an ideal company. A combination of wisdom and strength was formed to tackle any difficult task. It is said that " Chacha Chaudhary's brain works faster than a computer". Though both fight the criminals and tricksters, each episode ends with a touch of humour. The duo perform in lighter vein. The CHAUDHARY family consists of his wife Bini, a fat sharp tongue woman, Sabu, Rocket - the dog and Dag- Dag, an old truck who is half human- half machine. Chacha Chaudhary is the most popular Indian comics. More than 10 million readers enjoy this series regularly in newspapers and comic books in ten languages. A T.V. serial based on the comics has crossed 500 episodes and still continue to be telecast on premier channel "Sahara ONE".

Nostalgia

The Chacha Chaudhary series of comics were a childhood favourite during long distance train journeys. They were available plentifully with the Wheelers book stalls on railway stations throughout the country. Enjoying reading these on Kindle purely for that childhood nostalgia and no other reason!

Evergreen Chacha Ji

Must read, it's like walking down the Memory Lane. I grew up reading Chacha Chaudhary comic books and it is a very good read. Sabu-Chacha combo is too good to be true!!!
