Let's make this birthday one to remember.

54 years old (Born on April 19, 1971)

Happy Birthday, Manjul! May your day be filled with more laughter than a politician's promise and brighter moments than the ink stains on your drawing board. From Dainik Jagran to India Today, Rashtriya Sahara to The Economic Times—your cartoons have tickled our funny bones while cleverly nudging our conscience. Winning the Maya Kamath Memorial Award in 2009 was just icing on the cake (or should we say ink on paper?), proving that humor truly is mightier than any political speech.

Here's wishing you endless inspiration, sharper pencils, and politicians who never cease providing material for your brilliant satire. Keep sketching smiles!
