The story is of an alcoholic, a chronic depressive, who decides one day to end it all by jumping under a truck on the highway. He survives, however, and following a strange turn of events, is transformed into a godman of sorts. The tale weaves through the debris and chaos that is modern-day Bombay and also explores the phenomenon of instant stardom, which is now such an intrinsic part of our celebrity culture.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Harpercollins India","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46465145176215,"sku":"9788172237851","price":293.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9788172237851.webp?v=1769307393","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/arrack-in-the-afternoon-9788172237851","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
