If you don’t want to read him…. that is just fine… but you can recommend him to somebody who is in the first lap of a readathon.
He doesn’t belong to the genre of literature but is an inspiration to anyone who wants to be a writer in India.
He sells – (his books are sold like hot appams and sweetened coconut milk) – Anyone who is interested in doing a research about his phenomenal growth can do a market study and publish a paper which can be titled as – ‘The Chetan Bhagat Enigma’
If you want to criticize Chetan Bhagat, it is ethical to read him and do it with some elan.
‘To be simple is not a simple thing’ says the Malaysian poet Ee Tiang Hong, Chetan Bhagat is simple – his language and his thoughts.
A perfect companion for getting the reading block out of the way.
A perfect companion when you travel, when you wait outside the American Library for the security check in or even in the loo.
Free-wheeling reading sessions – not need to underline any lofty thoughts or hard words.
Perfect anti-dote for the clout of intelligentsia.
Chetan Bhagat knows the pulse of India
