Blurb (from the jacket):
In the final year of college, Anurag's life was falling apart - he vowed never to see Aditya, his best friend of many years again. Of course, what Aditya did was unpardonable! 

Not just losing his best friend, Anurag's love Urmi too got married to someone else the day unemployed. Anurag got the job of a flight purser in an airline company. 

But life has its twists and turns and one never knows where it will take him. Anurag too could have never imagined all that happened thereafter. 

In this page-turner of a spellbinding novel, every reader would ride the crests and troughs of myriad emotions, love, hate, anger, depression, excitement and joy that fill life's every moment and savor the essence of true love that is mystic and magical.

My take on the book:
The very title of the book was discouraging for me, so I kept it in the queue for a very long time. Finally, I thought I will have to get through it, no matter what. So here I am reading the entire book in a record time of four hours and writing a review about it.

If one reads a books so fast, there could be to plausible reasons - one, he might have liked the book and the story very much; or two, he might have hated the book so badly that he just wants to get over with it. In the case of this book, it is the latter: it was real hell to get through the book.

Actually, it was not a problem to get through the book. The read was a breeze. The language was very easy and the flow was good, too. But it is the story. All the silliness and absurdity of the story had given me quite a laugh. Maybe, this book indeed is a humor, a comedy.

I still can't believe the author had dragged Ram Gopal Varma, my favourite director, into this intestinal mess of a story.

Overall, I wouldn't recommend anyone this book. I also learned, from this book, that any English book with a Hindi word in its title shouldn't be read.
