Om Books Internatio​nal releases The Dialogue of Devdas: Bimal Roy’s Immortal Classic Shah Rukh Khan, one of the onscreen Devdas launches the book

Om Books International, in association with Hyphen Films, released Nasreen Munni Kabir’s The Dialogue of Devdas: Bimal Roy's Immortal Classic. The book was released by Shah Rukh Khan in the presence of the late Bimal Roy’s Family and publisher, Om Books International, Ajay Mago.
The Dialogue of Devdas: Bimal Roy’s Immortal Classic features the film’s complete dialogue by Rajinder Singh Bedi, based on a screenplay by Nabendu Ghosh, and lyrics by Sahir Ludhianvi. It is presented in a three-language format: Hindi, Urdu, Romanised Hindi/Urdu and an English translation, the book also includes an introduction by Nasreen Munni Kabir and comments by Bimal Roy’s family. The book is accompanied by a free DVD of the film Devdas.
Speaking at the book launch, Nasreen Munni Kabir said, “BIMAL ROY spent his life serving cinema and elevating the standard of Indian films. His Devdas is an example of his great understanding and love of filmmaking. It is a rare film that has everything just right ― the visual experience, the performance, the music, the photography, an atmosphere seeped in quiet unease, and above all, a masterful screenplay and memorable dialogue with depth and meaning. Reading Rajinder Singh Bedi’s dialogue is a pleasure in itself and allows us to enter the interiority of its characters and discover the mind of Devdas. A deeper familiarity with the text will undoubtedly provide a fresh understanding of a first-rate film, and in addition give insight into the most melancholic character of Indian cinema.” 
Ajay Mago, Publisher, Om Books International said, “It is an honour for Om Books International to come together with Hyphen Films to publish The Dialogue of Devdas: Bimal Roy’s Immortal Classic. This book brings back the memories of a graceful era gone by, where geniuses came together to create inimitable masterpieces. It is an honour for us to have Shah Rukh Khan—his portrayal of Devdas is unforgettable—release the book.”
