About the book

A lively romp through the fascinating world of Hindi cinema, Fantasies of a Bollywood Love Thieftracks the making of Omkara, Vishal Bhardwaj’s highly acclaimed adaptation of Shakespeare’s Othello, from the hours-long script narration for the actors to the star-studded premiere. Interspersed with interviews with Bollywood’s best-known directors, lyricists, producers and actors, including Gulzar, Javed Akhtar, Madhur Bhandarkar and the inimitable Dev Anand, Alter’s account of behind-the-scenes Bollywood is informative, insightful and often quite funny.
