KUDOS to me!!! I successfully completed only the SECOND novel in my life :-D. I mean to say, read the second novel :p
One Night @ Call Centre - by Chetan Bhagat
I just love his style of writing. For God sake, i am straight, but i just love this guy. Most of the times, if not all, he speaks my mind. He neutralise my inability to put my thoughts into words.
All these praises, doesnt mean that this book is great. I also know that, this one wont be even half successfull as FPS. It lacks the punch which FPS had.
1. Its not for people who prefer to see hi-fi english.
2. Its not for people who have ceased to show their emotional side.
3. Its not for people who havent tasted any failure in life.
4. Its not for people who dont want the kid inside them to speak out.
This post, is in noway a review of the book. Its just an outlet of my thoughts which are pouring out on the day i finished reading it (I used to read only in the bus while going n coming back from office... cant expect more than this from me!!! LOL!!!).
I always loved analysing people (ofcourse more about girls!!!). Right from the day i joined my high school, i had this love to see n analyse people. I read somewhere:
"A psychologist is a person who sees everyone else in the room when a beautiful girl enters a room"
I guess, it really holds good in my case. Bhatta & Giri (my college frz & crazy guys in their own ways) would know about it more, coz these two are also really good at this "TALENT" of judging people ;)
Well, coming back to Chetan Bhagat, this guy specialises in black sarcastic sense of humour. I believe thats the toughest thing to do, adding humour amidst pain in life. In this novel, he has tried to convey a message, rather than just a story, which i feel is the main cause for people not accepting the book whole-heartedly. Imagine the concept of GOD calling up 6 people & helping them!!!! But i know, it was not nonsense to write like that. He is a theist & has tried conveying it in this manner even though it looks unscientific & irrational, afterall life has so many things which are irrational & cant be explained :)
I just want to tell one thing to all atheists here, "I feel i am stronger in life with God in it"!!!
