A cartoonist's sketchbook with early Offbeat greeting card ideas

Since Pondicherry, 2000

Before memes had templates, Offbeat had a pencil.

Offbeat began with cartoons, cards and illustrated T-shirts inspired by everyday Indian life. Office frustration, family drama, relationships, travel, ambition and everything people were already thinking but rarely printing.
