'The Godfather' is undoubtedly the best book on mafia: Rustomjee Group's Boman R Irani

Boman R Irani, chairman & managing director of Rustomjee Group talks about his favourites: "The Godfather", Dubai and a meal at Salt Water Café.
Music

Jazz, soft rock and ballet. These are intelligent genres of music and keep your mind energised.

Movie

I think "Life Is Beautiful" may be one of the best films ever made. I've never seen a movie with such a balance of hysterical comedy and serious drama. Roberto Benigni totally deserved his Oscar. He had a lot of guts to make this film; he handled both the comedy and drama aspects beautifully.

Food

John Dory's crisp-on-the-outside but soft-on-the-inside fish preparation at the Salt Water café in Bandra, is something I particularly enjoy.

Book

"The Godfather" by Mario Puzo, is undoubtedly the best book written on organised crime and the mafia. This book is 'an offer you can't refuse', if I may say so, in the Don's words.

Holiday

Give me a beach and you've got me. A retreat and spa in the Maldives is amazing; you can just step out of your bedroom and jump into the water. For a quick getaway, I love Dubai too.

Phone

The exceedingly powerful and efficient, iPhone 6 Plus. I Don't have to carry any other gadget or device.

Brands

I love suits and I'm all for comfort, both for work and site visits. Raymond made-to-measure works very well for me.
