5. Book Review One Indian Girl
Chetan Bhagat announced his latest book One Indian
Girl via tweeting it. He also shared the official
teaser which you can watch. One Indian Girl is the
Ninth book of the author. His previous book Half
Girlfriend is very well received by his readers and
soon releasing as a movie.
Unlike his previous books, Bhagat chose a female
protagonist and written the story in female first
person. A girl who is well educated, Intelligent and
successful in his life. Unlike other girls, she has an
opinion on everything. Here is the Book Blurb :
6. “Hi, I’m Radhika Mehta and I’m getting married this
week.
work at Goldman Sachs, an investment bank. Thank
you for reading my story. However, let me warn you.
You may not like 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 I were a guy, you’d be cool with it. Since I am
a girl, these things don’t make me likeable, do
they?”
7. The Story starts with the wedding scene of Radhika Mehta. It’s the first
destination wedding in Mehta’s family. Everywhere is a pleasant chaos
of the wedding preparations and relatives. Goa Marriott is the hotel
where both families are planned to stay.
But in the last minute, Goa’s CM came in the hotel for an event due to
which Hotel staff reduced the no. of rooms booked by the Mehta’s. And
then the pleasant chaos converts into a horrible mess.
Radhika suggested a relocation for the boy’s side but her father and
relatives denied. And the logic behind denial is that “You can’t ask
boy’s side to adjust because they are The Boy’s side.”
Really? Is that so? But in India, it’s like our traditions to expect
adjustment from females. In this book, the author tried to make you
understand the female point of view.
As the author says that women are mysterious and no one can actually
understand what they really think. He added that ” I have wanted to
write a book in female first person for the past several years. Not only
that, I wanted that book to be about women and deal with feminism.
8. Why should Read :
The author tried a new thing this time.
Chetan Bhagat came in a female
version through this book which is definitely
fun to read.
Like his previous books, this book also
consists a strong message to the society. I
think Chetan Bhagat is doing his bit for the
society along with entertainment. One Indian
Girl is a story which is based on feminism
and the pathetic attitude of people towards
females.
