THE EXTRAORDINARY LIFE OF MAX BULANDI
Nirvana's life is a mess. . . he is a jilted lover, a bored addict and a disillusioned journalist. Nothing, it seems, can get him out of his funk. Until one afternoon, when he discovers a pile of back issues of India's premier youth magazine from the 1970s, Junior Standard. An article on a famed rock contest of the time catches his eye. It mentions a band called The Flow and their frontman, Max Bulandi, hailed as India's answer to Jim Morrison. Nirvana is consumed by the article and when a chance meeting with an old Bombay rocker whets his appetite further, he embarks on a search for the mysterious Max Bulandi and the early pioneers of the Indian rock music scene. As he traces the lost history of The Flow across Bombay, Calcutta, Shillong and Benares, it opens up to him a world of riffs and beats that transforms his life quite completely.
