Nehru and Bose
Parallel Lives
Rudrangshu Mukherjee
This book explores the complex relationship between two great nationalist leaders, Nehru and Bose.

Similarly, the book explores Nehru's emotional reaction to Bose's untimely death and how he saw Bose as a younger brother. The reader will be fascinated by the intricate details of a friendship that did not quite blossom due to differing political ideologies and the shadow that fell between the two men.

Read Rudrangshu Mukherjee’s fascinating book Nehru & Bose. One matter on which Nehru & Bose shared the same values was in their secular instinct & in their desire to create an inclusive India. Rabindranath described Netaji & Nehru as the only “two genuine modernists.” – source2021-02-17T21:53:59.000Z
@Vivek_Iyer_ @ghazalawahab @Aakar__Patel Judith Brown I also liked Tharoor's - I haven't read Frank Moraes's book but would be curious: Rudrangshu Mukherjee's parallel bio of Nehru and Bose was good – source
