The comics are available in six vernacular languages namely Hindi, English, Telugu, Kannada, Bangla, Marathi to aid kids in honing their linguistic skills.

They should utilise this time in reading which will not only entertain them but also hone their linguistic skills and supplement classroom learning. This initiative is in line with our commitment to offering curated experiences to our readers. It will keep kids engaged while their parents work from home,” commented Rajeev Tamhankar, Founder and CEO, TBS Planet Comics Studio.

The interactive comics enable the young ones to play games where they can choose to be a character and shape the adventure according to the choices they make in the story
