Confessions of a Bollywood Love Thief
Stephen Alter, Harcourt, 2007
Stephen Alter follows the conception and production of Omkara, Vishal Bhardwaj's reconception of Othello. Indian movie making is inexpensive compared to Hollywood, but not cheap in rupees ( $0.0225 in 2006 ) . These are huge productions involving many hardworking people, and dozens of the cast and the directors, as well as other big Hollywood names, are followed here. Classics and box office successes are discussed.
