REST IN PEACE

The third and last part of the Ravan and Eddie trilogyBelt up and hold on tight. Ravan and Eddie are back in another zany ride that takes them from anonymity to fame. Yes R&E or E&R as they are known in Bollywood have made it to the top as music directors. But they have neither lost sight of the big dream nor forgotten their past struggles. Ravan and Eddie are determined to become superstars even if they have to produce the damn film themselves. From the glitz and glamour of Bollywood to the badlands of Chambal from the high-rises of tony Pali Hill to Indian literature's most famous chawl address CWD Chawl No. 17 from air-kissing high society to gun-wielding mafia bosses Ravan and Eddie muddle along from one catastrophe to another without ever losing their trademark sangfroid. Poverty and life have taught them to reinvent themselves every time there's a crisis. Keeping them company through it all are old friends like Granna Parvatibai Violet Pieta Belle and Asmaan and new ones like Mrs Venkatraman the dacoit Maan Singh and Jagannath the son of Three Point One. As bawdy and entertaining as Ravan and Eddie as exuberant and over-the-top as The Extras yet possessing a hard cold edge Rest in Peace is a fitting finale to the trilogy featuring Indian fiction's most epic characters.
