A special thanks to

  • Pinki Virani for having had the courage to write a book as moving and insightful as "Bitter Chocolate", and inspiring me to take the challenge of stepping into the skin of some of the characters from her book.

  • Mr. Muchkund Dubey (Chairman) and Mr. Asthana (Director) of the Council for Social Development for their support. Their immediate belief in the significance of the message delivered through this production and their sponsorship encouraged me to go ahead with "Bitter Chocolate".

  • To YMCA for their support.

  • Kanika Satyanand, a dear, dear friend who unstintingly gave me her time and steered me towards "Bitter Chocolate" - Thanks Kaniks!
