Few artists have shaped modern Indian art like Maqbool Fida Husain (M.F. Husain)—a painter whose bold strokes told stories of beauty, culture, and controversy. Known as the ‘Picasso of India’, Husain’s life was a canvas filled with triumphs and trials, adored by some and criticised by others.

In this dramatised episode of Qisse Kahaniyaan, we bring Husain’s voice to life through a skilled artist, letting him narrate his own journey.

Step into the world of M.F. Husain and discover:

His rise from painting Bollywood posters to becoming India’s most celebrated modern artist.

The vibrant and thought-provoking artworks that made him a legend.

The controversies that led to legal battles, protests, and eventual exile.

His journey from India to Qatar, and the unbreakable spirit of an artist who refused to be silenced.

Was M.F. Husain a fearless visionary, a misunderstood genius, or both? Hear his story—raw, unfiltered, and as colourful as his art.
