After Harshad Mehta, Nirav Modi’s life story to get a screen adaptation

For the uninitiated, Nirav Modi, the founder of a chain of diamond jewellery stores, is a fugitive Indian businessman. He is being investigated in the PNB scam case. He has been accused of money laundering, fraud, embezzlement and breach of contract.

The book, “Flawed: The Rise and Fall of India’s Diamond Mogul Nirav Modi” chronicles the story of Modi from his rise to power to his subsequent fall. It is based on personal encounters, incisive interviews, and meticulous research conducted by the author, who will also serve as a consultant writer for the yet-to-be-titled series.

Thrilled to be a part of this book-to-screen adaptation, Pavan C. Lall said, “Capturing the sensibility of a book in a cinematic way is not a simple task but I have full faith in Abundantia Entertainment and believe that they will do complete justice to this endeavour and give Flawed the appropriate visual mounting.”

He added, “Flawed: The Rise… is my effort to bring to the audience the tale of a larger-than-life entrepreneur – his spectacular rise and equally dramatic fall which brought an entire industry to its knees.”
