Om Books International celebrated the launch of The Stranger in Me at Taj Lands’ End, Mumbai. The book was launched by Bollywood actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui.

On the occasion author Neeta Shah and Aditi Mediratta shared their experience of putting together the book with moderator Salil Acharya and the audience.

Also present on the occasion were producer Ashok Thakeria, distributer Anil Thadani, actor Siddhanth Kapoor, music composer Sulaiman Merchant amongst others.

When asked whether books should be adapted into films, the actor replied that books have a lot of material and if you want to make it into a web series, then you can give detailed information about the story and if you want to make it into a film, you need to highlight certain special incidents which will develop the story.

Nawaz further added that The Stranger in Me has special elements. There are a lot of twists in it, the pace of this book is really fast and there is an inner connection between human emotions, so he felt that there is a possibility that a film could be made on this book.

PVR was the official multiplex partner for the event along with Ballentines & Indiosa as official beverage partner and Amazon India as official online partner.

 “The Stranger in Me” is available across all leading book stores and online platforms.
