Junoon?

A bright sunny morning, we’re moving homes. From a village to the city, I’ve little comprehension of what’s going on around me. I’m 7yrs old. Last minute packing the trucks of the movers and I get on my papa’s scooter for the journey. He stops to buy me a chocolate and I notice a man with mustaches, and a gamcha..traditional to the Ramu kakas of movies, sitting in the corner with lot of pictures in front of him. I get down, pick up one and read slowly ‘Chacha Chaudhary aur Sadak ka Bhoot’…

That was the beginning of a fateful journey. By the time we covered the 40min drive to our new home, I had read and lost the comic book but the memory, the smiles, the stupid yet simple jokes ignited a cinder that still glows in my heart and is essentially a part of who I am. I’m sure similar little stories surround all of us of how we picked up our 1st comic book. We had little money, we had exams, we had to balance homework with co-curricular, despite all hardships we managed to fight with our parents for the next Raj, Manoj, Tulsi, Diamond…the list goes on.

Life moved in and passions moved out. Childhood interests were slowly covered by girls, internet, gaming, career and money. 13 years later. I met a group of friends who surprisingly enough shared the same interests years back. This was my 1st interaction with a group of intellectuals, each successful in their own walk of life and was the beginning of a new era,..a new friendship…a union that is now known as Raj Comics Fan Nation.

We took it on ourselves to bring the passion back, relive the memories. From every nook and corner that we could find, we bought Raj comics, Diamond comics, torn up Tulsi comics and started scanning them. More people join in and we grew in size. Now, we have over 2000 comics and more to come. This, my friends, brought back the one thing that I can always remember about my childhood. One thing no one understood but me. But now there were others.

The nights spent hiding a Dhruv between my history book, or a Bhokal comic next to my plate during dinner. I can relive them. You ask for passion, I reply RFN. You ask for memories..i reply RFN. You ask for Junoon..I reply RFN, you say comics..i say RFN….you say friendship…. I answer you…Raj Comics Fan Nation. Live the passion. Join us on Orkut.
