In a cult of their own : Bollywood beyond box office / Amborish Roychoudhury - 1st ed. - New Delhi Rupa Publications India Pvt. Ltd. 2018 - xvi, 260 p. ; 21 cm

This book is a tongue-in-cheek ode to these cult movies of Hindi filmdom, ones that despite not having made moolah at the box office, still made it to viewers’ memories for reasons—good or bad. Drawing from his own reminiscences of growing up on these delectables, and also face-to-face interviews with actors and directors such as Aamir Khan, Pankaj Kapur and Deepti Naval, the author celebrates these underdogs in a manner that is extremely readable and relatable.
