Is Tinkle your favourite comic book too? In this episode, I speak to Ms. Reena I. Puri, the Executive Editor of Amar Chitra Katha and Tinkle to learn more about the process of building ever lasting stories and characters.

There are many stories and characters like Suppandi and Shambu that bring a smile or laugh.

The Puffin Book Of Funny Stories has 16 such stories written by world famous authors such as Ruskin Bond, Satyajit Ray etc.

Durian is considered the world's smelliest fruit, but what happens when unknowingly some German postal workers open a package full of Durian fruit?
