Vish Dhamija is a British Indian crime-fiction writer. According to the Indian Press he is India's Best Page-Turner[1] and one of the ten most popular Indian thriller authors.[2][3] He is the only writer of Indian origin listed among the major legal thriller authors of the world. He is also known for his psychological thrillers.[4] Dhamija is one of the very few Indian authors to be translated into French.

In August 2015, at the release of his first legal fiction (his third novel) Déjà Karma, Glimpse Magazine called him India's John Grisham [5][6] for stimulating the genre of legal fiction in India which was almost non-existent before his arrival on the scene.[7] In a survey by eBooks India website, Vish Dhamija was listed along the top 51 Indian authors you must follow.[8] The Asian Age and The Times of India have cited him as the only legal fiction writer in India.[9][10]

Dhamija's stories have been published in India (Pan Macmillan, Harper Collins, Srishti Publishers), in the United States (Blackstone, Tantor Media) and in France (Mera Éditions).

In March 2024, Amazon India announced that Bhumi Pedenkar would play Vish Dhamija's fictional DCP Rita Ferreira, based on his bestselling book, Bhendi Bazaar.[11]
