Abstract [English]

The major key factor of modern ‘caricature’ art has been not only constricted to only the voice of society and the political domain, neither is it still subjected to newspapers, magazines and journals, banners, templates, and posters but it is legitimated to be spontaneous equally an ambiguous ‘etiology’ of art practice having its inseparable bonding through 21st century as ‘digital expression’ as well. Caricature art has always been hands-up with its impact on the human psyche or vice-versa as well and its elongated limbs hold a tremendous grip over any fragile, discursiveness, and expectation that weakens the stimulus growth of society which can never be overlooked. This research paper- ‘Satire and its Rhythm through the Lens of Caricature and Cartoon Practices in India: A Review’ fundamentally has made an attempt to showcase the study of satire through caricature and cartoon art by Five eminent artists from India and their perception of this subject.
