In this book, I have chosen to\n share not just my creative, but also my emotional, political, and spiritual\n experiences of the six years I spent with Manto. It was a very personal\n journey and while writing the book, I travelled with the film all over again.\n I believe, together, the images and words will tell you a different story. If\n you have seen the film, I think you will enjoy reading about the ?whys? and\n ?hows? of making it. If you have not seen the film, I hope this book piques\n your interest enough that you will want to see it. I have been as candid as I\n could in sharing the excitements, the challenges, and all that it took me to\n make the film. With Manto and I, my journey feels complete.
