    This merch featuring Tinkle comics characters is your portal to the ’80s


     Ask any millennial about the time they spent on Tinkle comics. Just the mention of Shikari Shambu, Kalia the crow, Suppandi, and Tantri The Mantri evokes nostalgia, transporting us to our childhoodand the tradition continues with every generation. The Mumbai-based weekly magazine has now teamed up with Mumbai-based online clothing brand A47.in for a merchandise collection that features three of the most famous beloved Tinkle characters.

    The designs showcase Suppandi, a village simpleton created by Ram Waeerkar in 1983, who turned 41 this year; Shikari Shambu, the reluctant hero who would rather spend his time relaxing on his hammock than being a shikari (hunter), and Tantri the Mantri, the notorious minister of a kingdom called Hujli with a rotten luck and the never dying desire to be king.
