Review :

Novel kept me going in all the chapters as it is based on a real life story. The book has fiction , sentiment , romance , social message , business life , relations , religion and Cricket. The unique thing in the book is that the author has addressed the sensitivie issue in the most sensible way possible. 

The story is about very simple people’s journey in life, how their lives get affected by the worst disasters in Gujarat’s history which is portrayed in a simple yet efficient way by Chetan.

 This book teaches you how your dreams crash into pieces by unexpected events but how with support from people around you, you get back on track, focus, and rebuild your dreams.

This novel especially comes when people only want to come up with excuses to show or feel how different they are rather than see the common aspects and bring oneness, which can keep us together and achieve our common goal of growth, peace, and prosperity. The language is simple ,  it connects very well with the India’s youth.

There are so many romantic scenes in the book , adding up the spice to the already burning Cricket and Politics.

Few inspiring  lines from the book -

Life will have many setbacks.

People close to you will hurt you. 

But you don’t break it off. 

You don’t hurt them more. 

You try to heal it.

It is a lesson not only for you, 

but our country needs to learn
