The uncommon man behind the ‘common man’ has left us on 26th January 2015. Now the Common Man is alone, without his creator, and has to take care of himself.

Dear Anil, First of all, even though I too draw cartoons, R.K Laxman is a giant and I'm mere a speck. Kahan R.K Laxman Aur Kahan Main ? He is in the sky and I'm on the ground.
Now let me tell about late R.K Laxman. He worked as a regular cartoonist in the beginning days as a political catoonist in The Freepress Journal, Mumbai. Later he Joined The Times of India and became famous for his Immortal cartoon " Common man."
His cartoons remain forever.
One of the cartoons which impressed me was, A dialogue between two Villagers. Both had seen that a laughing politician approaching their village for the first time after his election.
They say, It seems, it is the election Time now.

True. cartoons make you laugh especially cartoons with satire. They remind us about the sorry state of affairs prevailing in the society and poke us in a subtle and smooth manner.

A great cartoonist indeed. It was heartening to see the Google Doodle yesterday on the Google Homepage yesterday as a tribute to the legend. Just loved it.
