When Mumbai-based author Bilal Siddiqi started penning his first book, The Bard of Blood, his mentor – crime writer S Hussain Zaidi – gave him concrete advice: Make each scene as cinematic as possible. Fast forward to 2019, and that piece of advice seems to have helped. Siddiqi’s spy thriller will be brought to life as a new Netflix original series (it will be out on September 27).
