Kumar is a visual storyteller whose art production ranges from political cartoons to superhero comics, from animal comics to everyday life animations. He has won multiple awards (including COMIC CON India Awards 2019 and 2018) for his webcomics and his company also collaborates with private corporations, brands, and organizations for merchandise, products, and advertising.
