Description
Thugsen is an Amar Chitra Katha folktale based on a Marathi legend in which King Vikram of Avanti unjustly exiles Queen Shashikala, who raises her son in a forest fortress with the help of her maid Devaki. Trained in disguise and mimicry, Prince Thugsen grows into a thief and trickster and heads to Avanti to avenge the injustice done to his mother.
The cover features classic Amar Chitra Katha storytelling artwork, highlighting Thugsen in a dramatic folkloric setting with bold colors and period costume details that evoke royal intrigue, adventure, and mischief.
