This book tells the story of Ram Muhammad Thomas, an orphan in Mumbai who was suddenly arrested because he won a huge prize of 1 billion rupees in a TV quiz show. The police thought he had cheated. How could a child from a slum be so knowledgeable? Just as he was being brutally interrogated, a female lawyer rescued him. While watching the video of the quiz show at that time, they unfolded Ram's magical experience. From orphanages to brothels, from train robbers to the leader of the beggar gang, every suffering he experienced became the most precious wealth. This book presents a rich picture of Indian society. It not only displays the ethical and moral dilemmas of Indian society, but also discusses the relationship between money and material desires derived from the quiz show. It is full of complex comedies and thrilling tragedies, and is both thoughtful and readable.
