## Description

‘Vintage Shobhaa Dé, with scathing take-offs on everything, from the caste system to male chauvinism, from sex to social pretension . . . in other words, it’s all great fun’- Economic Times Watching the preparations for independent India’s 60th birthday in 2007, Dé-poised then to enter her own sixth decade-was struck by the thought, ‘Surely my life has taken the same trajectory as the country’s!’ While she reflected on this, many more questions arose: Does India really deserve to congratulate itself? Has it lived up to the early promises it made to its people? Does Dé herself believe in India? In Superstar India , an intimate confession to her readers, Dé answers these questions and discovers a jawan -young-India, ready to find its place in today’s world. Witty, passionate and gloriously opinionated, Superstar India celebrates the spirit of a nation that is certainly not about to lose its glow.
