M F Husain was born in Pandharpur, Maharashtra in 1915. One of India's best known artists, Husain who started off by painting cinema hoardings is often called the "Picasso of India". But his art has also always pulled him into controversies with certain paintings that triggered a row of protests for offending religious sentiments.
He was alleged for hurting public sentiments through his paintings.
