About the book

This is the story of Naiya Kapur, a Princeton University graduate who comes to Mumbai to chase the big Indian dream – Bollywood. Naiya isn’t searching for her soulmate, or hoping to find her roots in the India her parents once knew; she is searching for fame, fortune and fun in the new India. We follow Naiya as she navigates the labyrinthine lanes of Mumbai and Bollywood, where identities are fluid and murky – and where lines are meant to be crossed. In the middle of scuttling between auditions and parties of every hue, Naiya enters into a potentially ‘happily ever after’ relationship – that turns out to be an ‘it’s complicated’ one – with a neurotic ex-model-turned-film producer. As she battles her demons and tries to deal with her increasingly tangled life, the stage is set for high drama, and her Opening Night.
