Murder Most Right Anup Rijhwani

"Akash Sharma, an agitated infant, a befuddled teenager, a morally flexible youngster and a tormented adult, finds himself tangled up in his worst fears within the confines of the brutal Yerwada jail. He has chosen to bury the memories of his traumatic past, vowing never to reveal them to anyone. But when Shiva, the prison sweeper, takes an unusual interest in his life, Akash is unable to resist the urge to unburden and retraces a long-forgotten path stretching from his birth to the day he murders a person. Through his tale, Akash takes us on a roller coaster ride where he witnesses a hysterical mob prepare to fight a mysterious three-headed monster; is acclaimed as a black magic guru; strands traumatized on a ledge, on the verge of suicide; finds himself ensnared in the web of call centre culture; roams the slums of Mumbai trying to ease others' misery; and finally, turns into a hot-blooded killer. Isolated and mentally disturbed, Akash seeks closure in his daily rendezvous with Shiva; unaware of Shiva's true identity. Who is Shiva in reality and why is he so interested in Akash's Story."
