Based on true events, For No Reason at All captures the mood of the New Delhi administration, where its new, young prime minister must make a difficult decision. In a time when global trade borders are opening, the reputable Metkem Silicon and the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, collaborate to produce silicon metal locally.\n\nBut Anand Seshadri, the powerful head of the Department of Electronics pushes to import the technology from the US. The ‘silicon metal controversy’ erupts, and the prime minister must decide: Support Indian innovation? Or concede to foreign imports? When Seshadri takes drastic, underhanded measures to discredit Metkem Silicon, the task of countering him falls to Metkem’s lobbyist—a young, adroit lobbyist named Adityan ‘Solly’ Nilla.\n\nThings get interesting when Solly receives an unexpected call from the embassy of the Soviet Union. And then the French and the Americans, and the Indian intelligence get involved.\nSet in the New Delhi of the 1980s, this tale of espionage, intrigue, deception and sexual escapade is pacy, funny and sometimes touching.
