Chacha Chaudhary aur Chunavi Dangal

IN THE RUSH OF FOREIGN SUPERHEROES PADMASHRI CARTOONIST PRAN GAVE INDIA ITS OWN AUTHENTIC CARTOON CHARACTERS WHICH ARE FULL OF COMPASSION. THE FIRST NAME IN THIS LIST IS OF CHACHA CHAUDHARY. HE IS AN ORDINARY LOOKING OLD MAN WHO IS SO INTELLIGENT THAT HE CAN FIND SOLUTIONS FOR THE MOST INTRICATE PROBLEMS AS WELL. HIS COMPANIONS ARE THE MOST POWERFUL SABU FROM JUPITER AND A VEGETARIAN DOG ROCKET. FROM PETTY PICKPOCKETS TO BIG CRIMINALS… EVERYONE IS SCARED TO THE CORE ON SEEING THE RED TURBAN.

THE MASKED SUPERHEROES HELPING PEOPLE WITH A HIDDEN IDENTITY HAS BEEN A COMMON FEATURE. BUT A CHARACTER WEARING A TRUE INDIAN ATTIRE WITH A WALKING STICK IN HAND, LEFT AN INDELIBLE MARK ON THE INDIAN COMIC WORLD WHICH IS INTACT EVEN AFTER FOUR DECADES. A SERIAL MADE ON CHACHA CHAUDHARY, WHICH HAD MORE THAN SIX HUNDRED EPISODES BEING TELECAST ON SAHARA TV, WAS THE FIRST EVER SHOW BASED ON AN INDIAN COMIC. ACTOR RAGHUBIR YADAV PLAYED THE MAIN CHARACTER IN THIS SERIAL AND DISPLAYED HIS UNMATCHABLE ACTING SKILLS. NOT ONLY THIS, OTT PLATFORMS LIKE DISNEY AND HOTSTAR HAVE ALSO BEEN GETTING A LOT OF DEMAND FOR CHACHA CHAUDHARY’S ANIMATION SERIES.

THE CREATOR OF THE CHARACTER CHACHA CHAUDHARY, CARTOONIST PRAN GAVE MAXIMUM NUMBER OF COMICS TO THE INDIAN COMIC WORLD. NOT ONLY IS HIS NAME IS MENTONED IN THE LIMCA BOOK OF RECORDS, BUT ALSO TWO OF HIS ORIGINAL CREATIONS HAVE BEEN KEPT SAFELY IN AN INTERNATIONAL MUSEUM IN FLORIDA, USA. HE WAS ALSO CONFERRED THE PADMA SHRI AWARD, THE COUNTRY’S FOURTH HIGHEST CIVILIAN HONOUR IN THE YEAR 2014. THE POPULARITY OF THIS UNIQUE CHARACTER CREATED BY CARTOONIST PRAN CAN BE ESTIMATED FROM THE FACT THAT THE INDIAN GOVERNMENT CONSIDERED CHACHA CHAUDHARY TO BE THE MOST APPROPRIATE NAME THAT COULD BECOME THE BRAND AMBASSADOR FOR ITS PROJECT NAMAMI GANGE. AND WHY NOT? EVEN TODAY PEOPLE BELIEVE THAT CHACHA CHAUDHARY’S BRAIN WORKS FASTER THAN COMPUTER.
