All.
And Prashant Kulkarni
This cartoon to them
Thank you. I'd like to ask Granthali program coordinator Dhanashree Dharap to welcome the honorable Uddhavji Thackeray. Book presentation.
And they're being welcomed with bouquets.
It's been mocked, and sometimes it's even been held up to a mirror. Editor and cartoonist Prashant Kulkarni and Granthali have taken on the tough task of capturing all of this history in a single book.
It started as the Granthali readers' movement.
Thank you very much.
This book, which costs Rs 1500, is available for Rs 1000 today on its launch day. I'm sure you'll all definitely buy at least one copy.
This gift will definitely be a lasting memory for you, your loved ones, and everyone close to you.

For the past three and a half years, editor and cartoonist Prashant Kulkarni has been working tirelessly to explore the last 100 years of Marathi cartooning. He's been meeting with cartoonists, visiting the families of those who have passed away, and collecting their cartoons. This is a very important book for Maharashtra's cultural history, and that's exactly why the honorable Prashant Kulkarni...
Granthali is giving him a special honor. I'd like to request the Honorable Chief Minister to present this award.
This honor is being presented with a shawl, flowers, and gifts.
