SUDHIR TAILANG
(Trustee)
Sudhir Tailang is one of India’s finest political cartoonists,
known for his unique drawing style and unsparing satire. He has tried his hand in different genres of humour. He has made TV programmes, anchored a celebrity TV show, done books, made animated cartoons, held exhibitions of his cartoons in different parts of the world and made even a CD ROM!
But his core strength remains his daily dose of biting satire laced with wit and vitriol. He has his fans spread across the political spectrum. Even his victims admire his cartoons.
He has worked with all major newspapers of the country, He began his career with the Illustrated Weekly Of India of the Times Group in Bombay in 1982. Next year he shifted to Delhi.
He worked with the Hindustan Times for about two decades where he drew the front-page pocket cartoon Here & Now, daily-- apart from his big political cartoons. He also had a brief stint with the Indian Express.
Presently he draws a daily political cartoon for the edit page of the Asian Age( Delhi, Bombay, Calcutta, London) and the Deccan Chronicle( Hyderabad, Bangalore, Chennai).
He formed a voluntary group to raise funds for the Bhopal gas victims by drawing on-the-spot caricatures of people at different localities of Delhi. He has auctioned cartoons to collect money for the Kargil soldiers, sold drawings and donated Rs 1 lakh to the Rajasthan drought affected to make ponds. His live drawing of Kapil Dev on a huge canvass was auctioned for Rs 70,000/- in Delhi and the money thus raised was donated to a children’s organization. His live caricatures were auctioned in Delhi for CRY as well.
Sudhir does cartoons on developmental issues -- themes like women, children, environment and wild life interest him. His forte though is political cartooning.
He was awarded Padma Shri by the President of India in 2004 for his contribution to the art of cartooning.He has got many other awards and samman also in these so many years.Got Trophy's and Shawls etc, but not money as reward.
Widely traveled in India and abroad.
am feeling bit nostalgic today,as Sudhirji's B'day is on the 26th. He'll be 49 yrs old.Jub we met, he was 24(in dec 1984).We got married on 24th Nov,'86 and chinu was born on 10th sept,'87.We both belong to traditional families trying to change with time. With Sudhirji its not just a 'safarnama' of husband-wife, family person, but a wife of a celebrated cartoonist as well. I was a professional journalist, and still by nature a journalist, freelancing occasionally.
Being his wife is an interesting and difficult job, you need to be updated in News, if not indepth, but in basics, as you won't be able to understand if you don't know the news it potraying.He makes Political Cartoons but, it covers all the leading and newsy issues, wether political(which is also social),social, economical,sports,entertaintment,environmental,national, international....coated with political line.So you need to be all rounder to smile on and feel the crux, the satire and the irony it dipicts.Its like an editorial in a frame, with one liner.Its like a Charlie Chapplin's Film which makes you laugh as well as sad at a time.
So you need to be sensitive enough to understand it, and should have sense of humour as well to appreciate it.
One need to understand the pain and suffering of a leading cartoonist who consistently for last 27 yrs(officially) and for last 39 yrs (unofficially)...busy in creation.At times he feel stagnated,he is on the Plateau from where he wants to go up and up so that more and more people can hear his voice..his issues..his protest and his suggestions...for which he is struggling for last 27 yrs...to make the difference...this what his mission is. For this he has to deliver 6 days a week and read books, magazines, litreature, search in internet and watch television..to be update and to be the latest.
Cartooning is a unique profession- combination of a well educated person who has allround knowledge of issues to depict, language to attack,artist to potray in a small frame and have a sense of humour, sense of proportion,vision to see between the lines and future as well.Its his understanding,presentation and packaging of News which makes his cartoons unique..as News is the same for every newsperson. I like his thinking and conviction with which he makes the Cartoon. Every day he has to deliver a baby...At times I don't agree with his perspective or point of view...but I have all praise for him and I am Proud of him...I love you Sudhir...Keep going on.
February 23, 2009 10:29 AM(i wrote it in my another blog-chinuaditi.blogspot.com)
I think CARTOONIST's are very serious people, a thinker, who are loner's at the time of work(8hours)-all the artist's are-even my daughter is like this. They are sechluded -as well very observent as they need to observe and understand life and features of people to potray them.so usually they mingeled and jel easily with others.
I find cartoonists a good journalist as well...though this combination is rare, that's why there are very few good Cartoonists.Its a 'offbeat'profession...people at times think they are cynical or humours(jokers) or negative person who kills you with his satire...but the fact is, in the normal life they are as normal as any body...

Sudhirji's new avatar as political commentrator from tommorrow on wards daily 6-30pm to 7.30pm on India T.V till elections will make me busy.
March 2, 2009 1:53 PM (chinuaditi,blogspot.com)
Saw Sudhirji's programme on India T.V. Its a first kind of reality show on politics.Sudirji is a one of the judge...programme is from 6.30 to 7.pm daily till elections...'voter ka meter'...but need more gravity...should be given more time to judges to speak more on topics than just giving numbers...Like watching
March 4, 2009 10:49 PM (chinuaditi,blogspot.com)
Sudhirji's programme 'voter ka meter' is picking up-- its getting repeated at 9.30am.Now Judges are getting more time to speak as they deleted last segment.Good wishes to them.
March 6, 2009 9:01 PM (cut n paste from chinuaditi.blogspot.com)
Sudhirji's 'voter ka meter' programmes TRP is picking up...Quite a crisp programme...I like watching it, timing should be changed to 7.30pm, when everybody is back from their work an can watch it...
LokSabha TV programme 'Topshot' shown on Monday's and get repeated also,did Sudhirji's interview...its one hour profile based indepth programme, anchored by Suresh Prabhu-MP..ShivSena...Nice interview.Must Watch...
March 13, 2009 8:48 PM
Some one asked Sudhirji on what basis he is commenting on Politics- very funny question, I think people do not understand cartoonist's role in society...that's why I said, they should watch 'Loksabha TV programme-Topshot',Political Cartoonists read alot, meet and observe politicians, sketch them or make their caricatures...do travel and meet masses. Sudhirji is observing and commenting on Politics officially since '1982...in fact in his sangat, even I started commenting and predicting at times on politics...
March 15, 2009 5:40 AM

Sudhirji has a background of right ideology as many of his family members were/are member of RSS,and he is a Vaishnav Hindu,but at the same time he has a leftist thinking because of 8o's influence in journalism,which creates balance and objectivity in his views and political thinking as a newsperson.
IS ONE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTOR IN JAVED HABIB'S GROUP,OF FAMOUS HAIRSTYLIST AND HIS OLD AND GOOD FRIEND JAVED HABIB.HE'LL HAVE TO VISIT MUMBAI IN EVERY 3 MONTHS INTERVAL.

ADITI TAILANG (CHINU)
(Trustee)
Aditi was a part of the Neighborhood Project in her school (Sardar Patel Vidyalaya, lodhi road) for 2yrs where about 20 volunteers stayed back in school for 2 hrs after school hrs twice a week to play, educate, interact and help the underprivileged kids from all age groups from the neighbouring areas who were invited to their school. she has attended workshops like YOUTH PARLIAMENT and for SIGN LANGUAGES. Worked with SAHMAT and JANNATYA MANCH as a volunteer.So as with Musical NGO 'MANZIL'. Has done theater for NSD's child theater group, SANSKAR RANG TOLI in summer vacation. she has 4yrs course in Applied Arts(advertising) from Delhi College of Art. She had a subject and is interested in devolopment/fashion photography and sketching. She loves travelling. Has captured Delhi, ahmedabad, rishikesh, Dharmshala, various part of Rajsthan, Goa, Gujrat, Kerala, Karnatka, Andhra Pradesh, North East and Nepal. Has a plan to do a book on it. Has organised and participated in Fashion shows for her college festival. She will be incharge of Aditifoundations media campaign.As she is one of the Trustee of it. A perspective of a young girl and her friends will be always beneficial for us in it. Currently she is working with National Newspaper-Indian Express as a press photographer. Already covered many leading news and events.
(I am glad today as aditi's work- 24 photo's and mini ad campaign is selected for her college annual exhibhition, its shows improvement in her work, as last year her fewer work was exhibhited. Her college festival is also scheduled for next week, though she is not participating directly in anything...for last two years she has participated and organized Fashion Show, with mix of very relevant causes and litrary touch as a theme.
I am watching her group for many years, they truly represent new generation who are going to vote for first time for Lok sabha elections(10 crore in no.s)and (two third of our total population is young and below 35.)
Aditi is intelligent girl...creative,sensible, sensitive and aware. Its reflects in her work...She love to capture beauty of nature, life in detail-which is traditional,trendy and mordern,..which shows prosperity and progress as well as uglyness and poverty...but there is emotion,life and hope in every photo's and sketeches...I like her photo of a begger girl of hydrabad who looks so beautiful and sane..at peace, when she offered chips and cold drink by her...she was most beautiful..seeing urban and rural areas...streets and big hotels from her camera's eye...from Delhi's chandni chowk's to haridwar, Rishikesh, masoorie, Dharamsala,Pilani,jodhpur,jaisalmer,daman,goa,hampi,hydrabad...and so on..Its her begining...Computer can enhance the quality in photoshop and corel draw but cannot put emotion...you can feel this from their eyes...who reacts, rejects,rebel positively as they need to get convineced then swallow..for them left,right,straight,gay,black,white,rich,poor,all are same.There is no bar or barrier against religion, caste,tribe or region. They look equally good and comfortable in western clothes as well Indian,including saree...doesn't expose unduly as she know her physical limitation as well as social limitation..she respect tradition, elders but has head over shoulders,mature enough to not follow them blindly and respect her individuality...she like food from everywhere...but-- lacks in experience and maturity which comes with time,quite busy learning, have to learn many more thing in life...which can make her life more comfortable and beautiful...we are hopeful.. )
March 4, 2009 10:38 PM (cut n paste from chinuaditi.blogspot.com)
Aditi- like wearing all the colours, it reflects in her work also,though quite often she uses black and white,cipia effect and ...manual work.. in the photography. Quite a Papa's daughter in creativity.
March 5, 2009 3:28 AM (cut n paste from chinuaditi.blogspot.com)
Aditi's college exibhition and college festival will starting from 17th to 23rd of march- 9am till evening. It is open for everybody and for sale as well. These are the few of their practical work they did every week,whole year.
March 6, 2009 9:06 PM
Aditi is underestimated, I said, as she was not a topper..in studies she stumbled few times, failed once but is in control now as ART is her subject of choice...she and two of her friends painted 2 showrooms of NUNs chain--one in Noida atThe great India place Mall and another in Gurgaon--at Ambience Mall, Nun is a bird. I don't consider her a failed person as she is a good Human Being, same as Sudhirji, who is always ready to help others, a sucessful person, a good student...who failed once in school...

I have started an NGO ADITI fOUNDATION--which is based on my philosophy of 3 P's- Freedom from Physical, Psychological and Professional Problems--- it is a KOSHISH- to do a bit of our contribution to Society, which gave us so much.
It will take time to establish it, but I am sure I will create a Platform for myself to connect with masses...I'am waiting for my papers to get cleared, as our CA is getting my work done. He is saying it will take at least 4 months, so few more months of waiting, it shows how OUR SYSTEM works…and how much time it takes….if you go through proper CHANNEL. My Blog ad. Is www.aditifoundation.blogspot.com.
People do asked me why its aditi foundation…actually I like this name, as it means ‘mother of gods’ – and only motherly touch with affection(MAMATV) can heal,help and guide. My daughter’s name is also Aditi, it is she who insisted and pressurized me to do something, though I took initiative when my heart said ‘Yes’…Initially Sudhirji was against it, as he thought, its better to carry on as a journalist…but supported me, and still doing that…I think I can do my writing work as well social work…If I try to…
Aditi is FACE of my NGO, as she represents youth, who need to inculcate the spirit to live free from 3 P’s…in- themselves and around them, kid, young and old…I am sure she will try to fulfill the responsibilities of being Brand Ambassador of our NGO – by living Healthy and motivating others to be healthy---Physically, Psychologically and Professionally…

am feeling bit nostalgic today,as Sudhirji's B'day is on the 26th. He'll be 49 yrs old.Jub we met, he was 24(in dec 1984).We got married on 24th Nov,'86 and chinu was born on 10th sept,'87.We both belong to traditional families trying to change with time. With Sudhirji its not just a 'safarnama' of husband-wife, family person, but a wife of a celebrated cartoonist as well. I was a professional journalist, and still by nature a journalist, freelancing occasionally.
Being his wife is an interesting and difficult job, you need to be updated in News, if not indepth, but in basics, as you won't be able to understand if you don't know the news it potraying.He makes Political Cartoons but, it covers all the leading and newsy issues, wether political(which is also social),social, economical,sports,entertaintment,environmental,national, international....coated with political line.So you need to be all rounder to smile on and feel the crux, the satire and the irony it dipicts.Its like an editorial in a frame, with one liner.Its like a Charlie Chapplin's Film which makes you laugh as well as sad at a time.
So you need to be sensitive enough to understand it, and should have sense of humour as well to appreciate it.
One need to understand the pain and suffering of a leading cartoonist who consistently for last 27 yrs(officially) and for last 39 yrs (unofficially)...busy in creation.At times he feel stagnated,he is on the Plateau from where he wants to go up and up so that more and more people can hear his voice..his issues..his protest and his suggestions...for which he is struggling for last 27 yrs...to make the difference...this what his mission is. For this he has to deliver 6 days a week and read books, magazines, litreature, search in internet and watch television..to be update and to be the latest.
Cartooning is a unique profession- combination of a well educated person who has allround knowledge of issues to depict, language to attack,artist to potray in a small frame and have a sense of humour, sense of proportion,vision to see between the lines and future as well.Its his understanding,presentation and packaging of News which makes his cartoons unique..as News is the same for every newsperson. I like his thinking and conviction with which he makes the Cartoon. Every day he has to deliver a baby...At times I don't agree with his perspective or point of view...but I have all praise for him and I am Proud of him...I love you Sudhir...Keep going on.
February 23, 2009 10:29 AM(i wrote it in my another blog-chinuaditi.blogspot.com)
I think CARTOONIST's are very serious people, a thinker, who are loner's at the time of work(8hours)-all the artist's are-even my daughter is like this. They are sechluded -as well very observent as they need to observe and understand life and features of people to potray them.so usually they mingeled and jel easily with others.
I find cartoonists a good journalist as well...though this combination is rare, that's why there are very few good Cartoonists.Its a 'offbeat'profession...people at times think they are cynical or humours(jokers) or negative person who kills you with his satire...but the fact is, in the normal life they are as normal as any body...

Sudhirji's new avatar as political commentrator from tommorrow on wards daily 6-30pm to 7.30pm on India T.V till elections will make me busy.
March 2, 2009 1:53 PM (chinuaditi,blogspot.com)
Saw Sudhirji's programme on India T.V. Its a first kind of reality show on politics.Sudirji is a one of the judge...programme is from 6.30 to 7.pm daily till elections...'voter ka meter'...but need more gravity...should be given more time to judges to speak more on topics than just giving numbers...Like watching
March 4, 2009 10:49 PM (chinuaditi,blogspot.com)
Sudhirji's programme 'voter ka meter' is picking up-- its getting repeated at 9.30am.Now Judges are getting more time to speak as they deleted last segment.Good wishes to them.
March 6, 2009 9:01 PM (cut n paste from chinuaditi.blogspot.com)
Sudhirji's 'voter ka meter' programmes TRP is picking up...Quite a crisp programme...I like watching it, timing should be changed to 7.30pm, when everybody is back from their work an can watch it...
LokSabha TV programme 'Topshot' shown on Monday's and get repeated also,did Sudhirji's interview...its one hour profile based indepth programme, anchored by Suresh Prabhu-MP..ShivSena...Nice interview.Must Watch...
March 13, 2009 8:48 PM
Some one asked Sudhirji on what basis he is commenting on Politics- very funny question, I think people do not understand cartoonist's role in society...that's why I said, they should watch 'Loksabha TV programme-Topshot',Political Cartoonists read alot, meet and observe politicians, sketch them or make their caricatures...do travel and meet masses. Sudhirji is observing and commenting on Politics officially since '1982...in fact in his sangat, even I started commenting and predicting at times on politics...
March 15, 2009 5:40 AM

Sudhirji has a background of right ideology as many of his family members were/are member of RSS,and he is a Vaishnav Hindu,but at the same time he has a leftist thinking because of 8o's influence in journalism,which creates balance and objectivity in his views and political thinking as a newsperson.
IS ONE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTOR IN JAVED HABIB'S GROUP,OF FAMOUS HAIRSTYLIST AND HIS OLD AND GOOD FRIEND JAVED HABIB.HE'LL HAVE TO VISIT MUMBAI IN EVERY 3 MONTHS INTERVAL.

ADITI TAILANG (CHINU)
(Trustee)
Aditi was a part of the Neighborhood Project in her school (Sardar Patel Vidyalaya, lodhi road) for 2yrs where about 20 volunteers stayed back in school for 2 hrs after school hrs twice a week to play, educate, interact and help the underprivileged kids from all age groups from the neighbouring areas who were invited to their school. she has attended workshops like YOUTH PARLIAMENT and for SIGN LANGUAGES. Worked with SAHMAT and JANNATYA MANCH as a volunteer.So as with Musical NGO 'MANZIL'. Has done theater for NSD's child theater group, SANSKAR RANG TOLI in summer vacation. she has 4yrs course in Applied Arts(advertising) from Delhi College of Art. She had a subject and is interested in devolopment/fashion photography and sketching. She loves travelling. Has captured Delhi, ahmedabad, rishikesh, Dharmshala, various part of Rajsthan, Goa, Gujrat, Kerala, Karnatka, Andhra Pradesh, North East and Nepal. Has a plan to do a book on it. Has organised and participated in Fashion shows for her college festival. She will be incharge of Aditifoundations media campaign.As she is one of the Trustee of it. A perspective of a young girl and her friends will be always beneficial for us in it. Currently she is working with National Newspaper-Indian Express as a press photographer. Already covered many leading news and events.
(I am glad today as aditi's work- 24 photo's and mini ad campaign is selected for her college annual exhibhition, its shows improvement in her work, as last year her fewer work was exhibhited. Her college festival is also scheduled for next week, though she is not participating directly in anything...for last two years she has participated and organized Fashion Show, with mix of very relevant causes and litrary touch as a theme.
I am watching her group for many years, they truly represent new generation who are going to vote for first time for Lok sabha elections(10 crore in no.s)and (two third of our total population is young and below 35.)
Aditi is intelligent girl...creative,sensible, sensitive and aware. Its reflects in her work...She love to capture beauty of nature, life in detail-which is traditional,trendy and mordern,..which shows prosperity and progress as well as uglyness and poverty...but there is emotion,life and hope in every photo's and sketeches...I like her photo of a begger girl of hydrabad who looks so beautiful and sane..at peace, when she offered chips and cold drink by her...she was most beautiful..seeing urban and rural areas...streets and big hotels from her camera's eye...from Delhi's chandni chowk's to haridwar, Rishikesh, masoorie, Dharamsala,Pilani,jodhpur,jaisalmer,daman,goa,hampi,hydrabad...and so on..Its her begining...Computer can enhance the quality in photoshop and corel draw but cannot put emotion...you can feel this from their eyes...who reacts, rejects,rebel positively as they need to get convineced then swallow..for them left,right,straight,gay,black,white,rich,poor,all are same.There is no bar or barrier against religion, caste,tribe or region. They look equally good and comfortable in western clothes as well Indian,including saree...doesn't expose unduly as she know her physical limitation as well as social limitation..she respect tradition, elders but has head over shoulders,mature enough to not follow them blindly and respect her individuality...she like food from everywhere...but-- lacks in experience and maturity which comes with time,quite busy learning, have to learn many more thing in life...which can make her life more comfortable and beautiful...we are hopeful.. )

Aditi- like wearing all the colours, it reflects in her work also,though quite often she uses black and white,cipia effect and ...manual work.. in the photography. Quite a Papa's daughter in creativity.

Aditi's college exibhition and college festival will starting from 17th to 23rd of march- 9am till evening. It is open for everybody and for sale as well. These are the few of their practical work they did every week,whole year.
March 6, 2009 9:06 PM
Aditi is underestimated, I said, as she was not a topper..in studies she stumbled few times, failed once but is in control now as ART is her subject of choice...she and two of her friends painted 2 showrooms of NUNs chain--one in Noida atThe great India place Mall and another in Gurgaon--at Ambience Mall, Nun is a bird. I don't consider her a failed person as she is a good Human Being, same as Sudhirji, who is always ready to help others, a sucessful person, a good student...who failed once in school...

I have started an NGO ADITI fOUNDATION--which is based on my philosophy of 3 P's- Freedom from Physical, Psychological and Professional Problems--- it is a KOSHISH- to do a bit of our contribution to Society, which gave us so much.
It will take time to establish it, but I am sure I will create a Platform for myself to connect with masses...I'am waiting for my papers to get cleared, as our CA is getting my work done. He is saying it will take at least 4 months, so few more months of waiting, it shows how OUR SYSTEM works…and how much time it takes….if you go through proper CHANNEL. My Blog ad. Is www.aditifoundation.blogspot.com.
People do asked me why its aditi foundation…actually I like this name, as it means ‘mother of gods’ – and only motherly touch with affection(MAMATV) can heal,help and guide. My daughter’s name is also Aditi, it is she who insisted and pressurized me to do something, though I took initiative when my heart said ‘Yes’…Initially Sudhirji was against it, as he thought, its better to carry on as a journalist…but supported me, and still doing that…I think I can do my writing work as well social work…If I try to…
Aditi is FACE of my NGO, as she represents youth, who need to inculcate the spirit to live free from 3 P’s…in- themselves and around them, kid, young and old…I am sure she will try to fulfill the responsibilities of being Brand Ambassador of our NGO – by living Healthy and motivating others to be healthy---Physically, Psychologically and Professionally…
