It-s hard not to "aww" over Catana Chetwynd-s Instagram IG account. Her comics series inspired by her bearded fiancé John has over 2.9 million followers on IG. She-s now come out with a new book called Snug Simon & Schuster India, which she began working on in early 2019. "It focuses a lot on the fun, silly moments that couples have when they have that level of friendship," she says. A fan of Mumbai-based cartoonist Sailesh Gopalan who runs Brown Paperbag Comics, Chetwynd also loves indulging in chalk art on pavements. She began creating comics in 2016, when John gave her the seed of an idea. They never anticipated such a huge following and wake up in disbelief every day. She says, "I don-t think it will ever truly hit us."
