Some additional information: Crossword is an upscale and popular
bookstore with multiple locations in many of the big cities. Prominently
displayed in one of their Pune locations were multiple copies of
Hitler's Mein Kampf. I walked over to the guy at the desk to chat about
the prime display and general customer interest. He responded that the
book has been moving fairly fast off the shelves. He had no particular
explanation to offer for this phenomenon.
