‘Who is bigger than the King?’ Dawood Ibrahim went undercover after the serial blasts of 12 March 1993 in Mumbai. Nobody knew how he had managed to escape from India while his D Company had proven links to the blasts. Yakub Memon was subsequently executed, resulting in the bloody split of the Mumbai Mafia. What happened to Dawood Ibrahim then? Where is he now? As these questions began to surround, S. Hussain Zaidi’s riveting investigation led to Karachi, where Dawood is now the Kingmaker. Fiercely protected and valiantly denied by the Pakistani government, he has come to become the protector of the country’s dwindling economy and tumultuous polity. Yet, Dawood Ibrahim remains untouched by either of the governments across the Line of Control.

If you are interested in reading about the world of crime, any book authored by Hussain Zaidi is a must-read. All of his books are based on meticulous research, facts and information which are also based on primary research done by him in the form of interviews. At the same time, his narrative way of writing ensures that the book is not boring or mundane. Always recommended.

A total disappointment
Does not do justice to the book title. Old repetitive stories written again. No as such new information on dawood was written as claimed by the book. Weakest work of hussain zaidi. A total disappointment

Poorly Researched - better for Bollywood
I have been a huge fan od Zaidi's work, however his latest work 'From Dubai to Karachi' is a poorly researched, poorly structured piece which gives you no additional information than what is already available on the internet about Pakistani polictical scenes - Zaidi just 'alleges' after narrating each political episode that there is a Dawood link to it. Without any concrete proof, except for his imaginary source Kamaal Hassan. I have started to doubt all other books he has written now for lack of cohesion or logic shown in this book. I think since he has started to write fiction, he got confused if he was writing a fiction novel or a fact based well researched non fiction saga about Dawood. Extremely disappointed!
