  1. Ankit Yadav

    Loved hearing about his process! Some parts dragged a bit, but overall a very informative book. Rahman’s foreword was a treat.

  2. Neha Lalwani

    Informative and interesting! It covered many aspects of filmmaking. Though sometimes the text felt a little dry and academic for casual readers.

  3. Sahil Singh

    An absolute must-read for any film student. Ratnam’s insights are invaluable. I wish there were more behind-the-scenes photos.

  4. Om Ashokkumar Sahitya

    A fascinating glimpse into Mani Ratnam’s mind. Rangan’s questions are insightful, but sometimes the answers felt a bit too brief. Still a worthwhile read for fans.

  5. Satyaman Shukla

    A must-have book! I thoroughly enjoyed reading about Mani Ratnam’s work and life. The book is well-written and engaging.

  6. Pragya Singh

    Amazing! This book offered a rare peek inside the director’s creative process. The selection of topics discussed was excellent. I especially enjoyed reading about ‘Bombay.’

  7. Prashant Singh

    Some of the topics explored were very interesting, while others felt a bit irrelevant. Overall, a worthwhile read if you’re interested in Mani Ratnam.

  8. Chitransh Singh

    Felt repetitive at times, revisiting similar themes. However, Ratnam’s wisdom shines through. A mixed bag, but worth it for die-hard fans.

  9. Jahnvi Nankani

    A deep dive into the making of some iconic movies. Definitely recommend to anyone interested in Indian cinema and want to learn about film making.

  10. Jatin Premkumar Paliwal

    Insightful, but a bit slow-paced. It is a good read overall. Provides great understanding about Mani Ratnam sir’s perspective.

  11. Ketan Anand Thakur

    A great conversation! I’m a huge Mani Ratnam fan, so I enjoyed every bit of it. The book design could be better though.

  12. Basant Kumar

    A solid collection of interviews that reveals the thought process of legendary director. It could be better, especially considering the subject.

  13. Aayush Gupta

    I enjoyed the book, but I felt like Rangan could have pushed Ratnam harder on some topics. Still, a good addition to my film library.

  14. Gitansh Bhola

    Five stars! An enlightening conversation about film and art. Offers a deeper appreciation for Mani Ratnam’s work. I loved it!
