The life of Anant Pai, creator of the `Amar Chitra Katha` series of comic books centred around historical and mythological themes, will soon be translated into an audio-visual story based on the biography `Uncle Pai` by Rajessh M. Iyer.
Children growing up in the India of the 1970s to the 1990s, had one common factor uniting them -- their lovely association with Amar Chitra Katha. Growing up reading his creations was an essential rite of passage that escaped no one. And all this fun, frenzy, and madness was thanks to the epoch-making vision of one man popularly known as Uncle Pai.
