Hello comic lovers! Today we will talk about a unique magical book of Raj Comics, which your dear friends say, “Oh yes, this is the one where Kobi and Bhedia go ‘mad’ because of the heat!” Yes, I am talking about the special number 180 of Raj Comics, “Bhaago Pagal Aaya.” You started laughing as soon as you heard the name, right? Just imagine what will happen when you actually read it!
The heart becomes happy just by looking at the cover page of this comic. Kobi on one side, Bhedia on the other, both in torn red-yellow clothes, and bats flying in the background! (Maybe they too are feeling hot and looking for some cool breeze). The cover says “Kobi and Bhedia” and below in big letters “Bhaago Pagal Aya” Hey brother, if you warn us like this, of course we’ll run away—why should we even read? Well, we are die-hard fans of comics, the name itself pulls us in.
The story of this comic starts with the impact of global warming. Now you might think, “Oh, he is giving us environmental knowledge!” No, no, wait a minute. This is just a short intro, after that the real trouble created by the heat for Kobi and Bhedia makes us laugh like crazy. People in cities can avoid the heat with ACs and coolers, but what about the forests of Talabre? Lack of water and scorching sunlight has made life difficult there. In cities you find restaurants and big “pop drink” advertisements, but in the jungle there is nothing like that!
The ‘madness’ of the heroes and the spice of comedy
Now look at our hero Kobi. He is dying of thirst. His throat is dry like a desert. Suddenly he sees a lake and thinks, “Oh! This is heaven!” But as soon as he drinks the water and moves forward, some clan members appear. These clan members, using their “brains,” collect water from the night’s storage and stop Kobi from wasting it. The real comedy begins here.
Kobi is extremely thirsty, and the clan members aim arrows and bows at him to save their water. Kobi pleads, “Hey brother, just give me water, I’ll leave the rest!” And the clan members reply, “When a lion drinks water in the jungle, goats should stay silent!” Now you tell me, is Kobi a lion or a goat? Only Kobi knows that. Kobi gets so angry that he almost goes mad with thirst. And that’s exactly why the comic is named “Bhaago Pagal Aaya!”
Now comes the entry of Bhedia. He is also suffering in the heat. His fort feels like a furnace. Cities have electricity, ACs and coolers, but in Bhedia’s fort there’s nothing! Poor Bhedia thinks, “I wish I had my own personal fan blowing cool air just for me!” His soldiers bring him water, but Bhedia says, “It’s so hot that even my wife has run away. Where will I get water from?” Oh wow, what a sorrowful personal problem! Bhedia even beats up his own soldiers—first the heat, then the boss’s anger!
After this, Kobi and Bhedia finally meet. Both are troubled by heat and lack of water. Their meeting is like two madmen bumping into each other in the middle of summer. Both call each other “mad.” Now the real question is—who is actually mad? Honestly, I think it’s us readers who keep enjoying this madness in the middle of the heat!
Comic encounters with animals
There are also some animals in the story, like a bull and a demon. Both Kobi and Bhedia end up facing them. Kobi fights with the bull, but the bull throws him away. Later, he gets pulled into the water again. Kobi shouts, “Hey, leave me alone, I don’t want water!” It’s like the thirsty one is being forced to drink.
Meanwhile, Bhedia has his own trouble with the demon. He even gets his teeth broken. These demonic animals have no idea that both superheroes have already gone half-mad because of the heat!
Why this comic is special
Right from the start, the comic shows the burning heat in a funny, over-the-top style—people pouring buckets of water on themselves and animals suffering from thirst. On one side, city folks hide in their AC rooms, while in the jungle there’s no electricity or comfort at all, which makes a sharp contrast.
Kobi’s madness, especially when he attacks the clan members over water, justifies the title “Bhaago Pagal Aaya.” His extreme rage and destruction make us laugh out loud. When he destroys a water tank, we wonder, “Can someone really go this crazy for water?” But then we remember, “Hey, this is comics!”
Bhedia’s character is equally funny. His anger and sadness about his wife running away add a surprisingly human touch. Who would have thought that a ferocious wolf would cry about his wife leaving him? It makes the reader laugh in a different way—suddenly these larger-than-life characters feel more real and relatable.
Kobi and Bhedia’s first meeting, where they call each other “pagal,” is one of the funniest moments of the comic. It feels like a childish argument, where both are desperate to prove themselves right.
