'Neelkanth' written by IRS Officers, Satyam Srivastava and Rajeev Garg, being launched by Bollywood actor Rajkummar Rao

Fantasy could be different for each individual, but when it comes to the fantasy of authors, then possibly it would be getting their debut work launched by a bollywood superstar in one of the exceptional Book stores of the country. Getting the book launched by the bollywood superstars would be like a dream of any author coming true but Rajkummar Rao in Title waves, Bandra would be fascinating and something to flaunt about and fortunately, IRS officers, Satyam Srivastava and Rajeev Garg became one of the luckiest authors , and also found the wish of the renowned actor to be a part of the film based on their debut work; Neelkanth.

The famous actor further stated his pursuit for good stories and added that Neelkanth’s storyline has excited him a lot as an actor. Neelkanth: Truth, Lies, Deceit & Murder is a fast-paced crime-mystery-thriller that has been published by Leadstart.

Satyam Srivastava and Rajeev Garg are engineers who were batch mates during their training period of Indian Revenue Service (IRS) and now, they both work as IRS officers, praising them for managing their busy schedules for writing the book, Rao said, “Both of them are civil servants, so it feels nice to see that apart from doing their job they are following their passion of writing. I am sure it was tough for them because they told me that they used to write drafts of the book in the middle of daily travelling, so hats off to their passion. It’s a mystery thriller about a cop in Delhi, so the concept of this book itself excited me a lot. After knowing both of them and after knowing its basic storyline, I am looking forward to reading it.”

Expressing his feeling after Rao came to the book launch event, Rajeev Garg said, “It was not easy for us to think that Rajkummar Rao will come for our book launch event but I am very glad that he accepted the invitation very humbly and gracefully and also showed up to the event passionately. So we both are very grateful to him.”

Satyam Srivastava added, “I was amazed when I heard that Rajkummar Rao agreed to come to this event. It was like a dream come true moment for us. We are humbled that he came and it was a very amazing experience interacting with him.”

After Rajkummar Rao finally said that he would like to be a part of this amazing film which will be based on Neelkanth, Malini Nair, Executive Director, Leadstart says about the book, “Neelkanth is a expeditious thriller with a distinctive storyline and very fascinating characters. We are already in talks with a few production houses and OTT platforms for the screen adaptation of Neelkanth.”
