The teen periodicals ‘Kishore Jnan Bijnan’ and ‘Sandesh’ published two priceless Ghanada specials in 1986 & 2004 respectively.
The neglected graphic world of Ghanada was first brought to light in an illustrated write-up by Subhendu Dasmunshi from the latter.
A delightful Ghanada issue of ‘Nawbopotrika’ from ‘Ekdin’ followed (2011).
Juvenile fiction in Bengali is dominated by the ‘Da’-s. Tenida, Pheluda, Wrijuda, Pindida….
Ghanashyam Das was among the first to popularise this trend.
Ghanada’s zany yarns were originally decorated with a set of uber-cool drawings complementing his persona.
Sadly, only a sprinkling is gettable at present.
This website, a companion to our Facebook Page ‘Ghanada‘, ventures to display the illustrious Ghanada illustrations.
And more… if you’re keen!
