the day has finally come.
do we get autographs from you from the book pre-order at flipkart? or is it only at infibeam?
Imcha, i love our little interaction here, yes, the pre orders from flipkart will have the signature and a skecth drawn in it, i will have to go to there warehouses to perform this ritual.
hopefully i'll be done in two three days.
:)
The graphics used in this book is too good! nice.
razor wire
this iz fantastic
Punit, and FYF, Thanks a ton, appreciate it:)
I read the digital edition over the weekend and will buy a paper copy as well. This was one of the best depictions of the story of Krishna I have ever seen. This book will have a place on my shelf next to my copies of the Gita, Ramayana and Mahabharata. The artwork lends itself to animation. What are the chances that the book ever becomes an animated film?
You are an incredible artist. If you are selling any prints of the art featured in your book, please let me know.
A new fan,
Nick Zaveri
I stumbled upon this from my friend who owns a comic book store in Canada and bought a copy. Abhishek - this is unbelievable. The art is absolutely beautiful, and I love how you interpreted parts of Krishna's story. I especially loved how you illustrated Krishna showing his celestial form to Arjuna.
Look forward to reading more from you. I'm recommending this to all friends. What are the chances you will make a whole Mahabharata series? That will be something amazing.
As Nick said - if you sell prints, let us know

that's a huge compliment, to get a place next to the great books on the shelf, i'm replying a bit late to your message.
i must confess that i read it much earlier, with my spontaneity jaded with happiness, i just couldn't decide how to word it, so, it equalled the level of gratitude i felt.
that relentless act accumulated itself in a terrible delay, eventually when now, like a silly man,i am finding myself using generic ways to extend my jubilation, while my heart dances on the most sublime tune to which the words are yet to be set.
i'm currently working on other stories, Mahabharatha was my retirement plan, it'll engulf a big chunk and i just want to gain more maturity to handle a subject like that, making this book has led me to many possibilities, to distill a mammoth text like Gita is quiet a cerebral drill in itself.
but for sure i'm working on some very exciting stories…
Thank you so much for sending out such a beautiful message.
…the prints are on their way soon, i will for sure keep you in the loop.
Nick and your message, really made my day,
i really apologize for this delay, hope this finds you.
at times this task of making this book felt like i was drowning in a sea of possibilities, willingly lost, if that makes any sense, to find that delicate abysmal balance between the word and the image which says just about everything this universe is about, Krishna is about.
each time i draw, i write, is for this search.
the Gita was one portion of the book, which was probably the most consuming, even stacks of sketches and note couldn't do justice to what was going on in my head at some point.
collating quantum mechanics, secrets of the brain, and all sorts of the moral signage systems of life, embedded layer inside layer, fascinated me.
i'm still finding ways to inculcating those possibilities and learnings into my new works, so, hopefully this is just the beginning.
…my site is in the works, and prints of my book and of my paintings will be available through that soon, i will send out a mailer to you both,
and Thank you again for this beautiful message.
Abhishek
I love these paintings, Thanks for this amazing collection.

Abhishek Singh-Thank you for the experience-one of a kind. #Respect.
Well i have been following the author/artist Abhishek Singh of this classic journey thru the story building via his artworks. I can now confess at this point of time in life that the journey is a 'masterpiece' & presents Krishna & some other characters in different physical forms as so 'different' from the formatted characters. The air of mystery that shrouds his creations clear the air towards the end-he is Krishna away from the mold. Yes, truly said-it may not represent 'father's Krishna' but the transition is fierce, bold & challenging & a far cry from the molds. Abhishek's art works his use of the colors, hues, brush creates the aura & the glory the book does. Like i said-its not a comic, its not a Graphic novel or a book of 'Fine Arts' but a complete new experience. Each of the art work he shared along his journey of creating this masterpiece-stopped me by to earnestly comment. It gave me goose bumps each time-& i do believe in reincarnation again-in super natural forces recreating his work-his knowledge database, presented by him-show him to me in a complete new light. Highly recommended.
The review as written by you Mr. Tarun Padmakumar is complete #respect to you-you have said it all, just that if i can scale, i would give it more than full out of 10.
