About Amar Chitra Katha

Amar Chitra Katha (literally "Immortal Picture Stories") was founded in 1967 by Anant Pai, affectionately known as "Uncle Pai." The inspiration came when Pai noticed that Indian children could identify Greek gods but not their own mythological figures. He set out to change that through comics.

Today, ACK is recognized as one of the most significant contributions to Indian children's literature. The comics have been referenced in academic studies, used in schools across India, and credited with shaping the cultural awareness of millions of readers worldwide. The brand has been featured in The New York Times, BBC, and The Guardian as a cultural phenomenon.
