Book Overview
Jagadish Arora has built a life out of failure. From plastic trinkets to ice-cream carts, every dream he has chased has crumbled, leaving him burdened by debt and dismissed as just another fraud. All he wants is a way out, from the suffocating lanes of Karol Bagh, New Delhi, from his own mediocrity, and into a world where his wife can rest easy and his gifted young son, Ankit, can have a better future.
When Jagadish discovers Ankit's talent for storytelling, he sees not innocence, but opportunity. One viral idea to turn his son into India's youngest godman becomes his ticket to salvation. In a country where belief is currency and the internet a temple, "Chhote Baba" is born.
But as the spectacle grows, so do the shadows around it. A washed-up television hero clings to the boy's rising fame, while a ruthless politician turns the miracle into a movement, and a rationalist journalist closes in on the biggest expos of his career. Beneath the applause and headlines, a family teeters on the edge of collapse.
Darkly funny and disturbingly real, GodMan Inc. is a satire of modern India, where the line between devotion and deception blurs, and salvation is just another brand to sell.
