Vinod Pande has walked many a path. A civil servant with the
British Government, a broadcaster with the BBC, the maker of several
documentaries and ad-films, he helmed one of the popular TV networks launched
during the late nineties and ran his own advertising agency in London. After
his foray into Bollywood, he was a member of the jury for important award
ceremonies and chaired the selection committees of the Indian entry for the
Oscar Awards on two occasions. He is, however, most well-known as the producer,
writer and director of the Hindi film Ek
Baar Phir; and other notable ones like Yeh
Nazdeekiyan and Sins; and
acclaimed TV serials Air Hostess and Reporter. He lives and works as a
filmmaker and author in Mumbai. After Dons
Wife, a story on forbidden love, born in the crucible of crime, this is his
second novel. His next novel, Destiny,
is to be published soon.
