Vir Sanghvi is probably the best-known Indian journalist of his generation. Founder editor of Bombay, his career has included editorship of Imprint, Sunday and The Hindustan Times. Sanghvi also has a parallel career as an award-winning TV interviewer and has hosted various successful shows on the Star TV network and on the NDTV news channel. One of India's premier food writer, his book Rude Food won the Cointreau Award, the international food business's Oscar, for Best Food Literature Book in the world. He is the author (along with Rudranghshu Mukherjee) of India Then and Now, also published by Roli Books. Madhavrao Scindia: A Life, a biography co-authored with Namita Bhandare is his latest publication.
Throughout the book, Sanghvi has very generously offered us snippets of information like anecdotes, life lessons, etc. He digs into the conception that Infosys came up as an answer to North Indian businesses of that time by South Indian Brahmins. He also finds out on the transformation of the very average Nandan Nilekani to the business leader of today.
And it seemed as though I had chosen the right side. The campy Batman TV show of the Sixties did not conform to my (or the comic books) idea of Batman but it was great to actually see a live-action Batman. Marvel had nothing similar till the 1970s, when it came up with cheapo TV shows about the Hulk and Spiderman.
But by then, DC had got even grander. In 1978 (I think), the first Superman movie, directed by Richard Donner and starring Christopher Reeve came out. It remains, to this day, one of the best superhero movies ever made. It seemed to have sprung from the comic book (Reeve looked like he had stepped out of a panel in a Superman comic) and yet, because of its vast budget and its all-star line-up (Marlon Brando, Gene Hackman, etc.) it had a top quality, high gloss feel to it.
i wish a book was written about the life and times of all the great industrialists of India and every one made into feature films. The only decent one we have had till date on Dhirbhai was based on a foreigner's account of THE POLYESTER TYCOON.The book by Gita Piramal does not really count for it falls short on the human angles.That Ratan washed dishes in America, that Tatas would not buy $$$ on the black market, that he gave his bonus to officers his company is touching!
So, how good a movie is it? Well, it is a lot better than Man of Steel and I also reckon that it is far superior to the last, ludicrous Avengers movie (Age Of Ultron). It is not great but anyone with any interest in comic book movies will enjoy it.
The tragedy is that I cannot use it in any other book or publication because parts of it have already appeared in print. But here, on the site, you can read it as it was originally written.
O for OTT: The web series boom has put OTT platforms front and centre of any discussion on cultural trends and indeed writing. Many authors now are as interested in their books being optioned as they are in readership reach. Sarbh and Anuvab Pal will feature in sessions about how OTT shows captured our attention. 2b1af7f3a8
