600 million Indians, more than half the population, are under
twenty-five. This generation lives between extremes: more connected
and global than ever, but with narrow ideas of Indian identity;
raised with the cultural values of their grandparents, but the life
goals of American teenagers. These dreamers are the face of a new
India. Angry, and frustrated with being marginalised by both
globalisation and India's old politics, they place hope in the Modi
government's exclusionary nationalism and, above all, in their
personal truths: shape your own future; exploit, or be exploited.
Journalist Snigdha Poonam tracks these young fortune-seekers --
aspiring Bollywood stars and clickbait gurus, the Cow Protection
Army hoodlums and Allahabad University's first female Student Union
President --all united by the belief that they were born for bigger
and better things. Dreamers brings to life their boundless ambition
and extraordinary imagination to create opportunities in the
unlikeliest of spaces.
