I have read many books of this written, Chatan Bhagat who is one of the most popular author of this new generation.
I had a huge expectation on this this book, but after reading this, I finally can say it has not even reach the satisfactory level. I bought it from a local book shop and it cost me around Rs.150
Here I am sharing my experience below.In this book, the author ventures into a less discussed area, what a woman wants; rather what One Indian Girl may want! She doesn’t want to be reminded every day that she is a girl and hence she is different. While most of the girls are not lucky enough to get quality education, few ones are blessed to get some. But then, if she turns out to be intelligent and smart, she would end up earning as much as any man of her age(okay, may be more also). She would be an inspiration for young girls in her family, office and almost everywhere. However, elders in the family and friends would see her as loser because she is unmarried! Her life becomes irrelevant and her achievements becomes insignificant. If she finds love, he will admire her intelligence and her company. He will appreciate that she is knowledgeable. He will be glad to share drinks and smoke. But, if she asks about commitment or marriage, he would shy away. He would say quit job/drinking/smoking, become more domicile – start cooking, bring up kids, stay at home, be a home maker and all that. Many men would even feel insecure because the girl is earning more or because she is independent. They would be intimidated. One Indian girl explores all these topics in a subtle way.
I did no like this book personally. I am also not going to recommend this book to any of my friend as I think it will be the waste of time, if you invest your time in reading this book. It will make you boar after crossing the midway of the book.
Thank you for reading my review.
