In his book, Sardesai mentions a chilling incident in Gujarat soon after the riots when things appeared to be back to normal. One night, he was returning after recording an interview with Modi, when, not far from Modi's house, his car was stopped by a mob that wanted all occupants to drop their trousers to check if there were Muslims among them. Sardesai discloses in the book that his parents had circumcised him in childhood for hygiene's sake and the driver was Muslim. This was trouble. When all entreaties didn't work, Sardesai flashed his press card and showed the mob the interview he had just recorded. Only then did they let them pass.
