His production house,\u00a0Roy Kapur Films,\u00a0announced that it has just acquired the audio-visual rights to\u00a0William Dalrymple&#8217;s masterpiece bestseller,\u00a0<em>\u2018The Anarchy: The Relentless Rise of The East India Company&#8217;<\/em>, which will now be adapted\u00a0to a grand scale international\u00a0production, helmed by Roy Kapur Films.<\/p>\n<p>Roy Kapur, will be bringing together a diverse, international team of writers to create a series of ambitious scale and quality. It is his conviction that this is a story that needs to be shared with the world now more than ever before, as the alarming social, political and economic consequences of imperialism and colonialism have finally come into the public consciousness.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4207\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4207\" style=\"width: 247px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4207\" src=\"https:\/\/globalindianstories.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/sid-e1593145371138-259x300.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"247\" height=\"286\" srcset=\"https:\/\/globalindianstories.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/sid-e1593145371138-259x300.jpeg 259w, https:\/\/globalindianstories.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/sid-e1593145371138-362x420.jpeg 362w, https:\/\/globalindianstories.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/sid-e1593145371138-640x742.jpeg 640w, https:\/\/globalindianstories.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/sid-e1593145371138.jpeg 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 247px) 100vw, 247px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4207\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Producer Siddharth Roy Kapur<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cI believe that stories that are compelling, relevant and authentic have the potential to resonate with audiences across all nationalities and cultures. William Dalrymple\u2019s epic tale of The East India Company is one such story. While a debate rages today around the world about the increasing power of giant corporations and powerful individuals to wield control over minds and nations, what could be more relevant to global viewers than the true story of the takeover of an entire subcontinent by a small trading company! We are delighted to be working with William to bring to life this fascinating tableau of incredible characters, each playing off the other in their quest to exercise dominion over what was then the richest subcontinent on the face of the Earth,\u201d says Roy Kapur.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8216;The Anarchy&#8217;<\/em>\u00a0was recently listed by former US President Barack Obama as amongst his Top 10 Recommended Books of 2019. Encompassing a period of more than two hundred years, from 1599 to 1802, it traces the relentless rise of The East India Company against the decline and fall of the storied Mughal Empire. It provides a remarkable account of how a provincial trading start-up, run by thirty people from an office only five windows wide in a nondescript London building, became rulers of an entire sub-continent; in the process establishing the richest and most powerful empire in the history of the world. Now, more than ever before, has the telling of the history of British colonialism around the world become so significant.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4203\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4203\" style=\"width: 256px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4203\" src=\"https:\/\/globalindianstories.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/William1-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"256\" height=\"256\" srcset=\"https:\/\/globalindianstories.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/William1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/globalindianstories.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/William1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/globalindianstories.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/William1-420x420.jpg 420w, https:\/\/globalindianstories.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/William1-70x70.jpg 70w, https:\/\/globalindianstories.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/William1.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 256px) 100vw, 256px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4203\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Author William Dalrymple<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Since its publication,\u00a0<em>&#8216;The Anarchy&#8217;<\/em>\u00a0has received rave reviews from international media and critics.
