Set to be scripted by John Hodge, screenwriter of not one but two other outstanding Danny Boyle-helmed films (Trainspotting, Shallow Grave) the project is being described as “Agatha Christie meets Elmore Leonard” and, if it’s anything like Slumdog, the film will dive into Delhi’s criminal underbelly known for its contract killings and rampant fraud.
