Creating comics is a sort of an outlet for the artist, and he mostly works on them at night and on weekends. It's not a career for now, but if these cartons are successful, then why not?
The artist enjoys the creative process, and the positive feedback these funny office stories get makes them work even harder.
"The most rewarding is when a comic expresses the thought you wanted to convey. It's a bonus when readers tell you that they connected to it."
"My love for comics started at a young age with me doodling on the back of my exam question sheets. I continued making comics in college, but stopped once I started working. After a few years of working, I saw and heard so many funny incidents at work which I thought would make great comics, and hence restarted with work as the central theme for my comics," the artist behind these cartoons told the reporters.
