The BBC is to make Oscar winner Vikas Swarup's next novel, Six Suspects into a film.
BBC and Starfield Productions of the UK are finalising a screenplay writer in the next stage of making Six Suspects into a film.
The BBC is already producing an audio-book of Swarup’s new novel, which is also being translated into 10 languages. UK's Radio 4 is making a radio play of Six Suspects in less than six months after the book’s publication.
Swarup's Q&A hit pay dirt at the Oscars by winning eight statuettes.
Six Suspects is a thriller with its genesis in Jessica Lal murder case in Delhi, in which a barmaid was shot dead in 1999 for refusing to serve drinks after hours to the son of a powerful politician.
