Hi, I'm Radhika Mehta and I'm getting married this week. I work at Goldman Sachs, an investment bank. Thank you for reading my story. However, let me warn you. You may not like me too much. One, I make a lot of money. Two, I have an opinion on everything.

Three, I have had a boyfriend before. OK, maybe two. Now if all this was the case with a guy, one might be cool with it.

Hi, I'm Radhika Mehta and I'm getting married this week. I work at Goldman Sachs, an investment bank. Thank you for reading my story. However, let me warn you. You may not like me too much.

One, I make a lot of money. Two, I have an opinion on everything. Three, I have had a boyfriend before. OK, maybe two.

Now if all this was the case with a guy, one might be cool with it. But since I am a girl these three things I mentioned don’t really make me too likeable, do they?

Cant really call this as a novel; for it has no story, no twists, just plain narration. Just a screenplay for a movie. If this book is to be made a Cant really call this as a novel; for it has no story, no twists, just plain narration. Just a screenplay for a movie. If this book is to be made a movie, there is no need for a dialogue writer. Did I find it interesting?

Half way through the book, it got really boring and kind of repetitive. But at the end, its worth the read for the one message the author tried to convey. 'Why do women have to choose.?' That's where the whole novel scored. “Someone like me, whose breasts aren’t the size of footballs, as PUNJABI men prefer.” Chetan says. Well, there's another thing PUNJABI men prefer, PICKING FIGHTS and knocking out TEETH.

On behalf of them, I’m here to PICK a bloody BATTLE with you Mr. Lets’ start by discussing you obsession with degrading the community. I can understand the concept of laughing at one self, however I do not believe that’s what you’re trying to do though. In all of your stories, a Punjabi mom can be j “Someone like me, whose breasts aren’t the size of footballs, as PUNJABI men prefer.” Chetan says.

Well, there's another thing PUNJABI men prefer, PICKING FIGHTS and knocking out TEETH. On behalf of them, I’m here to PICK a bloody BATTLE with you Mr. Lets’ start by discussing you obsession with degrading the community. I can understand the concept of laughing at one self, however I do not believe that’s what you’re trying to do though. In all of your stories, a Punjabi mom can be just a HOUSEWIFE and a DUMB bimbo. What’s up with that man? According to you, the Punjabi ladies or moms in specific, are the most shallow people on the face of the planet, right?

Bothered only by SELLING their sons and bringing down their daughters. Or is it that you only reflect the kind of household you were brought up in, is that it?

NoI won’t bother writing good things about them. I do believe it’s your own personal life experiences that bleed through into your books. Let’s talk about how you sound like a cheap script-writer. Do you only write so that your books could be made into cheesy Bollywood Movies? If that is so, then why do you bother calling yourself an AUTHOR, why not a SCRIPTWRITER? I mean your books are filled with instances that are so CLICHED. You just have to have a wedding going on and then you just have to go ahead and ruin it.

I say this as a reader who has read all of your books, all bad with the exception of Revolution 2020, which was marginally OK. You had this same setting going on in the book 2 States as well. Let’s talk about your obsession with FEMINISM. Do you really believe in the concept of FEMINISM, or do you just like to think so? There is another term I’d like to introduce you to, it’s called PSEUDO-FEMINISM.

That’s what your book reeks of. If you don’t know what it means then try googling it.

If you believe, that girls should have equal rights for all things, then why put men down on the same thing. If according to you, it’s ok for a girl to choose to be Career-Oriented, then why can’t a man CHOOSE that he wants a home-maker, or vice versa? Most of the people don’t understand what feminism is really about. It’s about empowering Women, by giving them the FREEDOM of CHOICE. Not reservations and certainly not by putting MEN DOWN. Your book sounded a lot like Deepika Padukone’s advertisement called “My Choice.” Was that a little too much for you to comprehend?

I’m sorry, at times I get carried away. Let’s talk about your writing and book. Well what’s the point of discussing a BAD AUTHOR? You know why I call you a bad author? Allow me to explain in just one sentence.

YOU UNDERESTIMATE YOUR READERS. You think Indians are dumb and can’t read well written books and so you try to dumb it down. You’re not helping, believe me. I don’t know when you left India and what kind of image you carry around in your head but let me tell you that people here, me included, read top most authors they can get their hands on. They love good story telling with a smooth writing style and an enticing vocabulary, even if it means picking up a dictionary. You think your readers dumb and quite frankly insult their intellect by using phrases like “Little bit also you don’t understand” & “Keep Control”.

I do believe, again, that this is a reflection of your own self. You may have been an Indian but don’t let that fool you into the belief that you have an understanding of your Country.

BTW, This is me being an optimist, who believes that you dumb down your books on purpose. Hate to think that an IIT & IIM guy such as yourself, who actually worked at GOLDMAN SACHS, is NOT CAPABLE of writing anything better than THIS.!! I’d like to add just one thing before I sign off. I think you are a worldly gentleman. You have spanned many nations and might know about many cultures across the globe. I hope you know that every single one of them too have their own issues. Saying things like “Considering INDIA is a country where in-laws burn their brides, I guess they were nice people” about your own nation just for a cheap laugh is not very becoming.

You have a knack for highlighting the issues with the Indian society through your books in a very negative manner. It portrays India as a country of savages. I’d like to suggest 2 things: 1.Even though you might not consider yourself an Indian anymore, it would be great if you could highlight such issue is a manner where it doesn’t DEGRADE and DEMEAN your nation and its people. 2.If you truly think that you know the problems with our nation, if you think you can offer a better path and guide this country out of such horrible practices, why don’t you trying becoming a part of the system and then work on it. It’d be better than you commenting on such issues in an insensitive way. Ohh the Book writing part.

Yeah, you can't do that. You're not up to the challenge. I'll say, the amateur guy is better than you since he isn't as well read as you and still he had an imaginative plot even if he couldn't do justice to it. I dare say, given an opportunity, many guys and gals in India could actually teach YOU how to write. Yeah, like I said, You ain't no Author man.!! No judgments, please!

Those of you that know me, know that I sometimes read the really bad books to trash them. What better book is there than Chetan Bhagat's take on feminism? I'm not going to bother with the spoilers here, because I don't actually expect people to read this other than to trash it. If you are reading it because you think 'it's good Indian literature', I would request you to kindly fuck off from this review, because you will not like what I have to say.

Meet Radhika Mehta, smart No judgments, please! Those of you that know me, know that I sometimes read the really bad books to trash them. What better book is there than Chetan Bhagat's take on feminism? I'm not going to bother with the spoilers here, because I don't actually expect people to read this other than to trash it.

If you are reading it because you think 'it's good Indian literature', I would request you to kindly fuck off from this review, because you will not like what I have to say. Meet Radhika Mehta, smart, beautiful, rich, and a general Mary Sue. She's an Indian girl who is opinionated, has slept around, and makes a ton of money, so on cue, you're supposed to hate her, or so she says in the very first few lines of the book. Of course, because she's this quintessential overachiever, she never really believes that she is beautiful, no matter who tells her, and how many ever times they tell her. What did I say?

She reeks of Mary Sue-ness. She's getting married to Brijesh; it's an arranged marriage. But because she is so rich, of course, she's paying for the wedding herself. All one crore rupees of it.

Or, you know, 150,000 dollars of it. Of course, like any CB novel, the protagonist here looks at arranged marriages with much disdain. Now, I'm not one for arranged marriages myself, which is why I wouldn't agree to one and leave my husband-to-be at the altar. I wouldn't spend half the book bitching about it either. I have one question to ask Mr. Bhagat, though.

Pray, tell me sir, what did your mother do to you? Why must you paint Punjabi mothers in such a regressive, conservative manner? What kind of a mother says, 'hey, kid, I'm not proud of your achievements because you earn a ton of money and now no man will marry you?' No mother that I know of for sure.

Every Punjabi mother that CB depicts is such a stereotype, it hurts my brain to read it. Chetan Bhagat does not know the meaning of 'likable protagonists'. Here's what he does: he makes his characters smart and 'unattractive' and opinionated. These opinions are supposed to make the other characters hate or dislike or be in awe of the protagonist, and make the 'educated Indian youth' find them appealing and endearing. The fact of the matter is that it does not work at all.

I hated Radhika Mehta with such burning passion, were I to meet her in real life, I would slap her. More importantly, however, especially with respect to this book, I would like to talk about feminism. Feminism isn't a switch one can turn on and off, you know, Mr. So imagine my surprise when our feminist female protagonist decides not once, but twice, to quit her job because the douchebag that she fell in love with turned out to be a.douchebag. Do not write about issues that you cannot comprehend, Mr. Do not write about women when you don't know the first thing about them.

Actually, you don't know the first thing about humans, so there. And I repeat, as a feminist myself, feminism isn't about trashing men, it's about empowering women, so don't you dare give us feminists a bad name! And seriously, if I have to read about the girl's side adjusting one more time, so help me god! Why, in a book that you claim to have feminist undertones would you repeatedly put that?

And I repeat again, leaving your groom at the altar, on the threshold of marriage, after you agreed to marry him does not a feminist make. Before you write your next feminist novel, Mr.

Bhagat, I would recommend that you actually read up on it beforehand, rather than conjuring up your own convoluted views on it. Tell me, was this to make up for the immortal words of your previous book?

You know, the whole 'deti hai toh de, nahi toh kat le' (which roughly translates to 'give me your virginity or fuck off') drama? You get a LOL for effort, Mr. Let's talk a little bit about the plot, or lack of it, rather, shall we? So Radhika dated this Debu for two years before he dumped her because his fragile male ego couldn't handle her being more successful than him.

I mean, she came to his apartment to propose to him and tell him she was quitting her job, and he had his dick in another woman. Are you telling me he suddenly realised that hey, he loves her after all and flew halfway across the world to woo her on her wedding day? There is more drama in this sentence than there has been in the last three books I've read, and would you believe, it gets worse. So she moved to Hong Kong after her stint in New York, and fell in love with a married man with whom she 'made love, crazy, crazy love' to for almost a year. And then he dumped her because he wanted her on the side and not as a wife, because she wasn't 'wife material'.

He also flies all the way to Goa to woo her back. What bullshit! It gets worse because she considers leaving her groom to be for these two dick for brains, ya know, for old times' sake.

Well, she does leave her groom, but to find herself or some baloney. Much like Radhika says in the prologue, here I am in a situation where I don’t know what the fuck is going on. The situation here being this steaming pile of shit book. And Radhika, like you say so yourself, I did not like you. However, that was not because of your money, or your active sex life, or your opinions. How shallow must you think we are to not like you for such superficial reasons?

No, Radhika, see, most Indian women of your freedom, education, and social standing are as rich, as sexually active, and as opinionated as you are. That their opinions make more sense is of course why we like them. I did not like you because you were a shit person with shittier opinions. Opinions that you only spouted when they suited you. You believed in feminism when it suited you. Where was this feminism when you wrecked another woman's marriage? Don't blame it on the man, you were equally responsible for it, you horrible, horrible woman.

I'm not even going to venture into talking about the writing in this, because that would lead to intense and very expensive therapy for me. I will, however, leave you with some gems; make of that what you will. She was the girl boys had crushes on. I was the girl who started to wear spectacles in class six. Then I joined Shri Ram College of Commerce, or SRCC.

People say it is one of the best colleges for nerds. And what sort of a name is Brijesh? Can it be more unfashionable? I will think about marriage later, mom.

I am still new at my job. ‘You okay with the order, baby?

Wanted anything else?’ Debu said to me. And it goes on.Bad grammar, limited vocabulary, the usual with a side of fries. I can't even muster up enough rage to trash this book well enough. All I can say is that the Indian crowd has grown up, Mr.

Bhagat, and so should you. You should read It's hilarious.

INITIAL REVIEW: I, Anuradha Herur, of fairly sane mind and definitely not enough time on my hands am going to read this book, because, really, can you imagine how much fun I'll have trashing it? Disclaimer: This is not to say that I, in anyway agree with Chetan Bhagat's views on anything, much less his discombobulated idea of what feminism is. Dear Chetan, I have a verse for you Which can be enjoyed by your readers too So without much delay or ado Let me share what I think of you The first book that you penned down Is the only jewel in your crown It did give some meaningful insight Into an engineering student’s plight The second book was quite a shocker Made me wonder if you were off your rocker A story so completely inane It made reading seem an unbearable pain But after that, what happened to thee?

You embarked on this insane spree Of doling out Dear Chetan, I have a verse for you Which can be enjoyed by your readers too So without much delay or ado Let me share what I think of you The first book that you penned down Is the only jewel in your crown It did give some meaningful insight Into an engineering student’s plight The second book was quite a shocker Made me wonder if you were off your rocker A story so completely inane It made reading seem an unbearable pain But after that, what happened to thee? You embarked on this insane spree Of doling out humongous loads of trash While making your neat little pile of cash If Bollywood was your ultimate aim Why write books that are totally lame? Why not simply write a script To be made into a movie – an instant hit Chetan, Have you not an iota of shame? That you further make an insincere claim Of teaching English to our Indian youth? Nothing is farther from the truth Your language is so terribly poor I forgotted my own English for sure Your dialogues make me shudder and cringe For god’s sake, stop your writing binge!

This verse would scarcely be complete If we did not discuss your other feat “Feminism” – a topic you rave about Do you even know what it means? You lousy lout! You think if you wax your ungainly limbs You begin to understand a woman’s whims?

Stop trying to get inside our head And focus on your own self instead Think of how to improve your prose And do stop trying to poke your nose In every other matter of national interest Leave it to those who can do it best As for me, I am finally done with you And so bid you a quiet adieu With a deep regret of all my wasted time I lay down my pen and end my rhyme. DON'T JUDGE ME.

I picked up this book just to rant about it. “Some people are good at taking decisions. I am not one of them.” Me too, Mr. Bhagat, me too. Picking up your book was one such decision.

So, Chetan Bhagat has outdone himself. Some of his past works have actually been readable but not this. Even cringeworthy would be too good a word. I ended up wasting a few hours on this book. Actually, I fucking wasted my Friday evening of this book. Oh wait, I fucking put Wheel of Time DON'T JUDGE ME.

I ended up wasting a few hours on this book. Actually, I fucking wasted my Friday evening of this book. Oh wait, I fucking put Wheel of Time (at one of the peak points in the series) aside to pick this up. What the fuck was I thinking? THE SACRIFICES WE MAKE! Was the writing annoying?

Was it cliched? Was it repetitive? Definitely yes. From reading all the words I went to tap tap tap on my Kindle in like less than half an hour.

Also, I was groaning on like almost every page. It only gets worse when you go along. I would quote but I won’t grace this book by going over it again just to find those cringeworthy lines.

I mean, some of the dialogue delivery was. Bc na ho payega mujhse. The characters were just pathetic.

Not losers, but ugh. The difference was all the more prominent because I had just been reading Wheel of Time.

Seriously, Radhika makes Elayne and Nynaeve look like goddesses. Definitely needs some Mazrim Taim treatment. It was like jumping into a Vortex in terms of quality. Well, on the bright side, this will make that gem of a series look even better when I return to it. Note - Worst book of the year for me, definitely! Read the book at your own risk, might give you a brain stroke. Below is what the book is basically about: Spoilers ahead!

I will tell you something about Feminism, as best as I can in my capacity as a non-intellectual Indian who thank-god isn't a Punjabi. Cuz, Punjabis suck. Ask Chetan Bhagat. He has the dirt on them. So anyway, Feminism is a radical movement that believes that every person deserves to be treated equally - socially, economically, legally and culturally - irrespective of their gender. I could be wrong because I am not smart like Chetan Bhagat. Now I will tell you who can or cannot be called a feminist: A guide by Chetan Bhagat.

If you are a Punjabi Aunty, you can't be a feminist. If you are a pretty girl who has every guy's attention in a room, you can't be a feminist you whore. If you don't get good marks in your 12th Boards, you can't be a feminist. Drop le tu kamini.

You can't be a feminist unless you pay for your own marriage, all 1 Crore INR or 150,000 USD of it yourself. But if you are a nerd and you hate girls who don't study and are really pretty because they spend so much time on make-up and grooming, then my friend, you could be a feminist. If you believe that the very word 'feminism' is unnecessary and all of us should be just 'humanists', again you will make a pretty decent feminist. I am NOT trying to be ironic. Mummy promise.

If you think that people will not like you because you are a woman who earns more than most men and have dated.gasp. two guys, then that too will make you a pretty judgmental fucker. I mean, Feminist.

That will make you a feminist. If you are Chetan Bhagat, you are a feminist. I will tell you something about Radhika. She is the heroine of a very feminist friendly novel. Written by a person who understands Feminism very well. Who earns half a million dollars as an investment banker per year. Now this woman, could be doing charity.

This woman could be befriending other women and having the time of her life. But what this woman does is get dumped by a total loser (which is FIIINE, could happen to anyone but 4 years later she is having second thoughts on her marriage to a PERFECTLY DECENT GUY because of the same loser), has an affair with a married man and father (again FIIIIINE, could happen to anyone but 1 year later she is enjoying Radhika ka Swayamwar right before her actual marriage) and finally dumps everyone and goes on a world tour. Isn't it ironic, that this super-feminist novel reduced its super-feminist heroine (a successful, capable, independent and BRILLIANT heroine) to nothing more than someone who despite all she has achieved couldn't find happiness until she found the right man.

The right man, by the way, is the guy she dumped on her wedding day. Stop writing Chetan. Edit: Okay yesterday I was kinda pissed hence the ranting review. Today I can look at it a little more objectively so I though I should point out the one, only ONE good thing about this novel.

The day Radhika has sex for the first time, she asked her partner to help her get off. It was a genuinely positive message about women owning their sexuality and it was very well portrayed. I was kind of interested to read this one since the tag 'feminism' was attached to it.

But it didn't meet my expectations. The writing wasn't good. The story was okay. The characters weren't likeable except Brijesh(too good to be true in fact) maybe. Radhika, the biggest hypocrite in the book irritated me throughout.

The story was okay. The characters weren't likeable except Brijesh(too good to be true in fact) maybe. Radhika, the biggest hypocrite in the book irritated me throughout. For example, complains all along on how people never considered her pretty and how her prettier sister was preferred by the guys. But at the same time also rejects prospective grooms just because they are 'ugly' saying things like 'I can't wake up next to a man like that'. And then rejects few more for the same reason - looks. Just for the heck of it.

To 'get back' at her mother. The biggest LOLworthy moment came when she rejected a guy because he earned lesser than her. So much for feminism. If what Radhika believes is feminism, I am glad I ain't a feminist in spite of being a woman. I would rather be called a humanist.

Overall, couldn't relate to any of the characters, all being assholes in their own way. The message at the end was good but the ending was too vague. WTF did I just read!!!

Throw in some feminism(totally disconnected scenes and sentences for this) and a jackass who agress to marry the girl who dumped him the first time, you get this book. I took an IQ test to make sure none of my brain cells died off while reading this book. Turns out it had gone down by 2 points:( Bottom line: Don't even think of reading this.

I can't finish this book. It picks up every single stereotype and brings it to Bollywood-like life like only CB can. It would've been hilarious had it not been for the one sentence 'praise' from the New York times on the back page- 'most widely sold English author in India.'

I started reading novels after knowing about the humorous contents his books has. And after that I make sure that I read his books the first day after its release before someone else starts giving the review. Generally people believe in giving negative reviews to his book to prove themselves intellectual, literati or whatever! The last book that made me feel that it's the Chetan Bhagat I know was 2 States. Revolution 20-20 and Half Girlfriend couldn't impress me because I felt that I was reading a movie script than a fiction novel. This time he has come up with a book in female voice named 'One Indian Girl'.

I was doubtful about this one too as I believed that it would be too feminist to digest. But fortunately, I am enough impressed with the story and felt that I read a book written by one of my favorite authors.

The story is about a girl who is quite feminist and does not believe in getting pulled down by her parents or anyone just because she is a girl. She makes it sure that she does things which she feels is right without worrying about anyone else. She also have to hear about how she is doing things which are okay with boys but she shouldn't do it being a girl. But she is what not many girls in India are.

She has a great job out of India. She earns what 10 average men cannot earn collectively in India. She has more than one relationship which is not digestible in Indian culture. And story of such courageous and successful Indian girl makes this book a phenomenal read. Chetan Bhagat have not tried to preach much feminism which is the plus point of the book.

The story is very well handled right from the prologue. As is the case with many stories, even this one gets better when the story goes back in flashback.

The characterization by CB is spot-on once again. The character of Radhika is very well crafted and the writing style of CB does not allow you to think that its not been written by a girl.

Yes, I agree that few sentences are provocative as they are kind of general statements which not many girls would think while being intimate with someone or dressing themselves for a party. And I am pretty sure that CB-haters are going to pick up these sentences against him to pull this book down which has already broken Pre-ordering record on Amazon.

The book has not been stretched anywhere. The second flashback is not as good as the first one and it has a reason because the affair is with a person of another class itself. The climax is little filmy but has an appropriate ending. I was little unsure about what decision will the girl take in the end but the feminist point is well handled in the end and the final decision of the girl only makes you smile in the end of the book. Talking about the drawbacks I would say that too much insight of the protagonist's job has been discussed which becomes irritating after a point of time. As I said above, at few places, CB has not justified a girl's point of view correctly which looks quite fake and attention-seeking.

Also, the humour is again missing just like the last two books for which CB has become popular. Overall, I give this book 3.75. out of 5. It can surely be read once. ABHILASH RUHELA - VEERU!!! Read this rubbish of a book last night.

No stars from me. Throughout the book I could only picture Chetan Bhagat in deep conversations with Alia Bhatt on feminism culminating this bolly-trash of tripe he wants to call a book. Either Chetan Bhagat underestimates the reading population in India or he is as dumb as the protagonist he created, but hey we as a population jump on every opportunity to part with our brains to celebrate movies like Kick, 3 idiots why stop a the big screen then?

Bolly-trash is a cancer now spreading onto the literary world and I wonder if maybe Honey Singh should start writing as well. Well, very honestly, I am disappointed. You ask me why? I just felt, the story was nowhere close to women empowerment or feminism.

As someone, who has actually studied feminism in her graduation, I would say, you haven’t even understood what’s feminism. Wishing to be someone else just to get more attention from men is not feminism. Moving continents, running away from self, just because a man ditched you is not feminism.

Read my complete review here. Such a terrible waste of time. I don't know why the author insists on dumbing down the language in the book and it is full of stereotypes. He probably feels that Indian people cannot read long and complex sentences and cannot accept complicated ideas and plots. He clearly has underestimated Indian readers. The feminism tag is not at all justified in this book.

This is like a classic Bollywood masala story. It's not going to be a surprise if it gets adapted into a film. Over all do not waste your Such a terrible waste of time. I don't know why the author insists on dumbing down the language in the book and it is full of stereotypes.

Interesting plots (which can be converted into movie screenplays) are Chetan Bhagat's strength. Examples are 'Five Point Someone' and 'Three mistakes of my life'. In these two novels, the plot helps the novel transcend the author's inadequacies in style and flair. Sadly, this new novel fails to do that. It is a pity that such a shallow person is celebrated as a public intellectual.

Yes,the numbers and sales favour Chetan Bhagat but I remember what C.Annadurai said in a different context: ' If Interesting plots (which can be converted into movie screenplays) are Chetan Bhagat's strength.

Yet again, Chetan Bhagat has completely lost. The book has promised at the beginning, it might be a better offer than his predecessor Half Girlfriend.

How in the world does the author claims this book is about feminism? The book failed to even touch a base point in that aspect. Its basically a sorry tale of a successful working woman that portrayed as too naive, vulnerable and pretentious.

Before any one pull their trigger it as too prejudice to judge the characters and paint a fiction out of it, let me remind you that, the author has a huge fan base of mostly teenagers. He has set up a bad example of feminism by giving the most ridiculous ideas ever. The plot seems more similar to his earlier novels.

The author may be having this gut feel that, the more he writes a triangular love stories, the better the cash flow. But, he went a step ahead and wrote this garbage, where the character lacks the basic conscience and morale. The story mainly revolves around this woman Radhika, that has no thoughts in her mind other than sex or whom do I go to cuddle up. I am really sorry Mr. Author, this is not the feminism that India needs. The main character Radhika, who once was a studios girl, now wants attention of every men that she ogles.

Oh, what's up with the Brazilian waxing stuff Mr. Does going down again and again makes the character feel more fabulous than anything else? The author makes the character Radhika as someone who is suffering from AIDS (Attention Immune Deficiency Syndrome). This is not a true example of feminism.

The author has abused this feminism and women empowerment in the most obnoxious way. Does having sex with the boss on a business trip is an alternate to erase the past? I have no idea that this could work. The author feels that, the more he paints a bitch out of his heroine, the more empowered she is. Come on, get a life. The character Radhika feels that, the more praises (about work, about her looks, about her achievements, etc) she gets from her man, the more love that exists.

How in the world does that justify? There are certain sections that is ridiculously written. For example: When her mom confronts about her drinking whisky before the dance, the daughter is all worked up and says, 'Mom, you need a drink I guess'. What more can you expect from this outrageous line? Does smoking up, binge drinking, having sex with boss out of trivial reasons all count up to how empowered our woman in this book is? When all such things crop in your mind while reading, and there you go, the discussion at 5AM in the morning by inviting her exes to face each other and giving a long lecture about how they are expecting a wrong person in her? Why don't she do it at the first place?

Hasn't she done all that already? There's more to write but I don't think it is quite important. You all can watch this outrageous feminism movie at the big screen down in few months. It seems Chetan Bhagat is setting a wrong example to his female fans. He is secretly championing them that it is completely okay to sleep here and there, since you're more empowered to take control of it.

If this is the definition of feminism that author has portrayed, then he is wrong on many levels. This novel is stupid, callous and misleading. Not a recommending stuff.
