The above article expands on the sequel's premise and I have to say it definitely piques my interest. I would be keen to read the book and watch the film adaptation.
"After I wrote Calling Sehmat in 2008, I spent another 10 years with her, on and off, depending on the little time she gave me. [The book will focus on] how she went into depression after the mission but fought her way out of it.
It will reflect her personal journey since her return from Pakistan how she never accepted her son as her own, and denounced public life. Dr Manmohan Singh offered her the Padma Shri, but she turned it down. The mysteries around her will be decoded in Remembering Sehmat. A portion will also include why she made me take two trips to Pakistan, during the decade that I knew her," reveals Sikka."
