Ian was in Mumbai recently and met Raj over dinner to discuss the project, adapted from his page-turner, which Lionsgate is in talks with to co-produce. The two have been in talks for the last 2 years discussing the characters and the events that the book is based on.
Confirming the news says Raj Kundra, “It was so lovely to meet Ian over dinner in Mumbai. He is a fantastic guy who loves India and it’s a huge honour for me that such quality and awarded screenplay writers were selected by the UK producers, to write the screenplay adapted from my book. We have been speaking on and off for the past two years discussing the characters and events since the book is based on a true story. I am looking forward to seeing my book turn into a movie and I know it’s going to be an edge of the seat British crime thriller.”
