Q1.Id Y.

Apparently Y was put to sleep by some potion given by a saint from the Himalayas and buried in the ocean the first time. On his return, by another potion ,he was reduced to a small size, closed in a bottle and buried in a grave. But this was not the end. He returned several times again to wreak havoc in the city. Finally X buried him in an endless hole somewhere near a rocket launch site. But for the last time he was sent to the planet of Zalubar by a rocket.

X: Chacha ChoudharyY: Raka

Q2.

• X is Y’s archenemy. X means King of Darkness.He has lived 6000 years, and is the source of evil in the world. He intends to rule the world by spreading darkness, hatred, sin and evil. It is said that the source of his strength is one-half of the "Shakti Punj” which he managed to retain after he originally obtained the entire Shakti Punj by deceit from Shri Satya, the founder of the Suryavanshi. However, it is also mentioned that the source of his strength is the evil that is committed by people in this world.

• Back

Q1.

• His real name has never been revealed .In the second episode however, he began using the name X when three teenage aliens, after witnessing X survive a huge fall by jumping onto cars, referred to him as X while praising him when he landed — in this case, more of a generic term, i.e. "dude" or "guy." Later, when asked to identify himself, he replied "They call me X." He is also 25 years old (born "25 B.A.").

Q2.

• X’s character was greatly inspired by Oscar-winning black actress and singer Hattie McDaniel, best known for playing "Mammy" in MGM and David O. Selznick's 1939 film Gone with the Wind.

• As a partially seen character, she was famous for never showing her face (except very briefly in Saturday Evening Puss).

• X's appearances have often been edited out, dubbed, or re-animated as a slim white woman in later television showings, since her character is a mammy archetype now often regarded as racist.
