Gangs of Wasseypur
Running close to five hours and thirty minutes and boasting of no big stars, Gangs of Wasseypur is unlike any Hindi film you might have watched.It is also one of the most feted Hindi films of recent times in international circles. It has been spoken of as India's answer to landmark gangster films of the west, like The Godfather. In Gangs of Wasseypur: The Making of a Modern Classic, the authors go behind the scenes through its chaotic gestation to bring to life the trials and tribulations, the triumphs and ecstasies involved in following one's dream. Including the complete screenplay, the book is as much a testimony to the spirit of everyone associated with the film as it is a tribute to the intellectual honesty and indefatigable spirit of its director, Anurag Kashyap.

Blending fiction and documentary, the short stories recreate the lives of the Madrasi villagers of Berbice, Guyana in the 1950s and 1960s. With their drum-laden music and worship of Mother Kali at the heart of their lives, these fishermen, rice farmers and market traders speak directly to the reader in their pungent and elegant creole.
