When he created the 'Angry Hanuman' poster, he didn't expect it to become a rage across India.

"I designed the face in 2015 for a group called Aryan that my friends were running. They wanted a new look for their flag and so the ‘angry Hanuman’, as everyone is calling it now, was born"

"My Hanuman has attitude, not aggression. He is powerful, not oppressive. But that’s the problem with art. There is no limit to interpretation"

The artwork became so viral that even PM Modi has responded to it and lauded the efforts:

"I want to applaud artist Karan Acharya whose Hanuman portrait has captured imagination of people across India. This is a laudable achievement and is the power of his achievement, talent and imagination." Modi said.

Here are some of the best works of Karan:
