The book traces the evolution of the Mumbai mafia from a group of thugs and smugglers to the present day mafia dons of organised crime.[1] It traces the journey of Dawood Ibrahim from the by-lanes of Dongri where he first cut his teeth in crime, to Dubai, where he eventually established his empire.[2]
The book was adapted into the film Shootout at Wadala by Sanjay Gupta.[3] A TV adaptation is currently in the works.[4] Bambai Meri Jaan is a web series based on this book.
