An Unsuitable Boy by Karan Johar
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I picked up Karan Johar's memoirs on a whim during an Amazon e-book sale, and was surprised by the author's candour. "An Unsuitable Boy" (2017) is a breezy read that doesn't dish out dirt on the Bollywood industry. Indeed, if you are looking for kiss-and-tell stories about actors and tinseltown gossip, these memoirs are not for you. The author waxes philosophical about life, love and loneliness as he relates the story of his childhood, anecdotes about his family, friends and the making of his movies. Recommended, especially if you have watched Karan Johar's films.
