Chetan Effect

I rarely read all the books written by an author. I have not read the complete works of Shakespeare (I do not want to) nor any of the literary giants living or dead. Strangely enough, I have read all the books written by best selling Indian author - Chetan Bhagat. It all started with ‘FPS’ then ‘One nite @ the call Center’ and the recent one ‘The Three Mistakes of My Life’. A strange occurrence indeed. I did something which is stranger than this - writing a review to Chetan on his number 3. The strangeness came to a full circle when i received a reply from him. Almost the whole of last week of my classroom time was spend discussing the speech given by Chetan at Symbiosis Pune. It is a good one (We i.e. me and my students agreed) in this speech he talks about the need to have the spark within us to live our lives in a lovely way. He also warns against the factors that may act against this spark. The full text can be accessed at www.chetanbhagat.com. Given below is my review and the reply which I received from him.

Hi Chetan
Thanks for giving all of us one more chance to forget this world and its trivialities (at least for some hours) 3 was good. To be frank with you i had enjoyed the neha love episode in FPS but somehow this vidya one didn't strike a chord in me. i felt it was too immature and unrealistic. Maybe i am getting old or you are becoming younger. Anyway hope you will give us one more chance to forget this world ASAP....wishes – Prem


Will definitely do.
Thank you so much for being my support

God bless
Chetan
