	Amar Chitra Katha - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Amar Chitra Katha is a comic book series from India that sought to retell stories from Indian mythology, history, folklore, and culture in illustrated format.
		The original printings of Amar Chitra were not in full colour—because of budgetary constraints, the panels were printed using yellow, blue and green.
		Amar Chitra Katha was launched at a time when Indian society was slowly moving away from the traditional joint family system, because of (among other things) socio-economic constraints and urbanization.
