India Unboxed by Safir Anand

* What does Emperor Bahadur Shah Zafar have to do with the origin of our much-loved chaat? * Did you know that laddus were first used for medicinal purposes? * What is the Indian garment used as a towel, scarf, bandana, suraksha kavach and cushion seat, and endorsed by Queen Sofía of Spain and Antonio Banderas? In a society with many fault lines, this book celebrates our glorious past, our quirks and our deep-rooted cultural traditions that unite and define us. While there are many things that divide our country of more than a billion people, our love for baarish, Bollywood and boondi laddus binds us together. Or is it chaat, chai pe charcha and champi? India Unboxed is a salute to our diversity, our unsung heroes and our unapologetic desi way of living. Aspects that will warm your heart, baffle you or simply make you laugh!
