US-based Parmar Entertainment’s Daljit DJ Parmar, along with Samir Gupta of India’s Impact Films and filmmaker Mohit Ramchandani (“Dreamer”), have acquired the rights to adapt British author Hamish Morjaria’s forthcoming novel “The Muziris Empire”.
The book, the first in a trilogy, is due to be published by Pan Macmillan in summer 2024. It delves into India’s ancient history and its connection to the Roman Empire, unravelled by rebellious archaeologist Harveen Gill. Jumping back and forth in time and set in present-day Kerala – once home to the ancient city of Muziris – the story follows Gill and a team of Indian archaeologists as they search for clues to the site of the ruins of the lost empire of Muziris. The soon-to-be head of Santa Alleanza, a holy alliance formed to protect the interests of the Vatican and the Papacy, is keeping a close eye on the Indian team’s progress, as their next discovery could shake the very foundations of the Church.
