Billoo is an Indian comic character created by Pran Kumar Sharma. Billoo is a school going teenager. Much like the American comic book character Archie, Billoo is fun loving, likeable by girls although not so "Casanova friendly" and loves to play cricket. He is shown as a prankster and naughty teen and his naughtiness which make him face problems, but with to his cleverness he comes out of all troubles with the neighbourhood aunties. In 1973, cartoonist Pran was looking for a school going teenage boy who could feature in the comic strips. Thus he created a boy with a long hair covering his eyes and named him Billoo. This was liked by the readers so much that the editor of the magazine asked the cartoonist to increase the episodes from one page to two. Billoo is seen roaming the streets with his pet pup - Moti. When he is at home, he is stuck to the TV.
