If you're in Bangalore from February 18 onwards, try and catch this.

Laxman known as the 'Shakespeare of Indian cartooning' had during holidays to Mysore and Bangalore between 1975-1991 sketched around 97 doodles, some of which were an extension of conversations with his late brother R K Srinivasan.
