Bad Boy Billionaires India (Documentary) review :
Released on Netflix earlier this month, Bad Boy Billionaires India documents the rise and fall of three noted industrialists - Liqour baron Vijay Mallya, Diamantaire Nirav Modi and Saharashri Subrata Roy. Each episode has running time of close to an hour and comprises of news clippings, interviews and relevant life events properly presented in a story format.
Personally, I liked the Mallya piece the most followed by Saharashri ki Kahaani and then Nirav Modi's tryst with Punjab National Bank. An episode of Satyam owner Ramalingam Raju was also shot but not streamed due to legal issues. I hope they do it soon as it will certainly make for an interesting watch, specially for a finance professional like me.
One common factor in all the three (alleged) fraudsters lives is the presence of top Bollywood celebrities gracing their parties and wedding ceremonies. It clearly highlights the parasitic nature of that industry.
Overall, this is a brilliantly directed documentary which is highly recommended.
