The city of angels wore a thin haze of ambition that clung to every palm tree and billboard. It had been years since Rishi last walked through a studio lot.
Two months earlier, the knock on Rishi's door had come at dusk.
When he opened it, two officers stood there—one older and calm-eyed, the other visibly uncomfortable. Between them stood Zoey, her hair pulled into a ponytail tha...

The idea of making a movie out of a children's book no one had ever heard of? A British import from a barely known author with a strange name like J.K. Rowling? It sounded more like a hobby than a business deal. He had been in and around the entertainment industry long enough to know how brutal it could be—how many promising projects ended up forgotten o...

Mrs Keating, the music teacher, had left it open during the free period, promising to be back in ten minutes. The room smelled faintly of sheet music and dry erasers. Posters of Mozart and Whitney Houston lined the walls. There were maracas in a bin and a lonely tambourine on the chair beside him.

The ceiling fan above him creaked rhythmically, a tired metronome marking the passage of another day. It was an old fan, the kind you no longer bothered to fix, like Raghav Malhotra.
