Street knowledge is more important than book knowledge for Vikas Swarup.
In 2008, Vikas Swarup's debut novel, "Q&A," was adapted into the Oscar-winning film "Slumdog Millionaire."
Director Danny Boyle and screenwriter Simon Beaufoy cut and changed much more than just the title. Yet, Swarup was never anything but tactful when speaking about relinquishing his work to Hollywood.
It's no surprise. By day, Swarup is a high-flying diplomat who has worked in the Indian Foreign Service for 25 years.
Currently the Consul General of India in Osaka-Kobe, Swarup has been variously posted in Turkey, the U.S., Ethiopia, Britian and South Africa.
