The Three Mistakes Of My life

Akhilesh Last Tuesday Loaned me his copy of the latest novel by Chetan Bhagat, The 3 mistakes of my life.Wednesday Afternoon I started reading it and it was over by my evening walk time.

Genre - Fiction

Age Factor- 16 and above.

The book - Much Much better then his last book, the call centre one.The story evolves around the guy Govind Patel and his two friends ish and omi and a business plan mooted by Govind to accommodate his and his friend's future.
The book has been written for the mass audience, so ofcourse the story, the pricing all go tandem with it.Not a very high class or polished product but an ok, timepass read.
Chetan Bhagat deserves appreciation for touching on sensitive issues like Ayodhya,earthquake,
The 2002 riots but I think the liberal use of the word fuck could have been avoided.Also
I failed to understand the point that in 2000 when cellphone had just begun to gain popularity in the common homes of people, a girl from a financially and socially conservative family,has a personal phone and she is just 17.Also the idea of long sms chats. Anyway my opinion thats all.

Gifting ideas
As I wrote earlier its well priced [95 rupees only] and written for the masses.So that makes it a good

A thought to share

Does India Need communal parties?

I think, it was Tan's post on this blog itself, Republic Day Event, where this question was raised. My answer. YES. we need communal parties even in Independent, Secular India. Now let me take you, back to events before 1947. When India was a colony of the British Empire. The congress party, in its attempt to gain momentum for the independence movement, heavily used Hinduism, an example of which is the famous Ganesh Utsav held in Mumbai every year. Who complains? No one. But at that time, due to various policies of the congress, Muslims started feeling alienated. Jinnah, in these times, got stubborn over the need of Pakistan and he did find a lot of supporters. Congress, up till late 1940's never got bothered by it. And why should we? Who complains? No one. But there were repercussions. The way people were butchered and slaughtered during that brief time when India got partitioned, was even worse than a civil war scenario. All in the name of religion. And there indeed
