Amar Chitra katha was an in-separable part of a lot of children and in most cases, helped the childhood in imparting knowledge about our rich culture and values. Uncle Pai, whom we know of was very instrumental in maintaining the high standards, yet easily accessible to the common man. I hope the same standards continue at ACK team even after this great mans death..!
As a name he is Uncle to most of our PreMobilised, Precomputersiation days. We used to fight in the school gap hours to read AMAR CHITRA KATHA from the school library.
Based on comic we learnt most of Indian ancient, patriotic heroes too. We always remember you thru those all katha.
I was a regular reader of tinkle during my school days. it used to b fun reading tinkle , that time it costed ard 2.5 rs. i was v excited when tinkle no: 100 was released. i used to regularly get prizes after winning the contest frm tinkle. once a year uncle pai used to organise show in bombay where i used to go with my family. I can just say thks a lot uncle pai and rest in peace.

You said "summer vacation" and brought back loads of memories. Apart from playing and playing and playing, with hardly any TV, exchanging comics and story books and reading every single inch of the book :)
