Indeed its been my 3 mistakes for judging a book by its cover and believing
in the hype surrounding the author Chetan Bhagat and spending100 bucks
to buy it. All I started with a great expectation fuelled by his previous
take Five Point Someone, gradually turned into ashes.
The story supposedly woven around cricket, religion and business does not
leave any impact on reader. Maybe the cricket fanatics find it good coz of
some quiz on cricket being brought out. Clearly no homework is done on
the other two topics. It shows how desperately the author wants to
interwine all these in a single plot. How desperately he wants to bring in
humour and successfully fails in it. And how despearately used real things
like earthquake, hindu-muslim riots to add to reality. Boy! its a straight lift
from our bollywood masala movies of 90's where you will get every of these
things mixed. And trust me its a boon not buying it.
