WRITING FROM THE MARGINS

Q. What was your reference point for the Disney+ Hotstar series City of Dreams?

My inspiration was The Wire. One of the most amazing things about the show was that the creators took different aspects [of Baltimore] for each season and explored it in depth. I wanted to explore Bombay without offending people and give audiences a peek into what happens in the so-called ‘city of dreams’. The series format allows you to explore many different lives. There were no boundaries.
