MBA for the Mafia is a story about a guy who has earned his
MBA from a premier institute in India and is successfully interviewed for the
job of an investment banker in Mumbai. He obviously feels gifted enough, but
soon realizes that along with a life of glamour, he’s faced with serious
challenges – the firm that has hired him is run by the Mafia, and he needs to
play by their rules. Soon enough, he realizes that all his life he has played
by the rules of his parents and society, and finds himself incapable of
accepting the circumstances he’s now trapped in. He decides to revolt, and this
story is about how he finds friendship, love and meaning in life, once he
decides to follow his instincts.
The story is set in the posh Colaba in Mumbai, where two very
different approaches to life play out – one, the life of an academic and a
professional, and the other, that of a vagabond. When the two meet, a common
set of values unfolds. The reader is compelled to dwell on the commonality in
us all.
