Achyut Godbole is a perfectionist! Not at the beginning but eventually by learning from his mistakes. Dark horse is truth of our society. But i want to know who is santosh, i think u r.
Really a nice book. I think each kid who comes from a small town to a big city to fulfil his dreams is Santosh.
He has to go through various struggles. He has to adapt to the city life and then keep focused on the goal with which he came here. But often that is not very easy. Most of the times they get too awed by the city life and forget what they came here for. I bought the book and read it. I don't promote pircay on my blog. I'll urge you to buy thep book. This singular love story deftly explores the many facets of love-mutual trust, obsessiveness, the arrogance of passion, the need for self-fulfillment, the yearning for the beloved, and the complexity of modern relationships.
The lives of Cason Martin and Davis Channing intersect in a powerful way. Both are struggling to survive life-threatening diseases. Neither feels in control of their lives. Can they be brave enough to beat the odds? In , the screenwriter, lyricist and journalist Neelesh Misra started mentoring a handpicked group of writers called the Mandali.
These were men and women of all ages, backgrounds and dispositions. The Mandali soon started writing radio stories in Hindi, for Misra's show Yaadon Ka Idiotbox-short, pithy, bittersweet narratives that immediately struck a chord with listeners across the country.
Translated for the first time in English, this collection represents the Mandali at the height of its powers. These stories are blessed with a keen sense of place, attuned to the rhythms of both small-town India and rapidly expanding mega-cities like Delhi or Mumbai. Homesick yuppies reconnect with their hometowns, old lovers reconcile against all odds, and parents learn to get along with their grown-up children.
A mother-in-law uses questionable tactics to bond with her distant daughter-in-law, a war widow learns to stand up to family, and a life-threatening mountain slope brings two strangers together.
These are fresh, untamed voices aided and abetted by a master storyteller. Author : Parul A. Personality contains six lectures delivered in America during Tagore's second visit there.

Along the way, she lived with an indigenous Mayan community in Guatemala, hiked alone in the Ecuadorian Andes, got mugged in Costa Rica, swam across the border from Costa Rica to Panama, slept under a meteor shower in the cracked salt desert of Gujarat and learnt to conquer her deepest fears.
With its vivid descriptions, cinematic landscapes, moving encounters and uplifting adventures, The Shooting Star is a travel memoir that maps not just the world but the human spirit.

It is a simple and unique love story between Sudha and Chander and a lot of resemblance with today's era. There are so many good lines that I kept on underlining and so many lines of wisdom and knowledge. I have heard the TED-X speech of this author where he had emphasized on reading at least one book in oyur regional language every year.
After reading this one, I have become a fan of his writing and will surely follow his advice of reading at least one regional book. I would recommend everyone to give a shot to this book.

The characters are imperfect just like us and gave a new meaning to love. Chandra is a software engineer and wanted to be a storyteller. Divya Prakash Dubey has quite a few observations about how we shape our lives through things that set us apart rather than things that make us fit the frame This book, left so much impact that one of my dear friends opened a cafe with the same name.
On the whole, Musafir Cafe is a read that all of us can learn something from, irrespective of age and experience. The language of the book is quite simple and common that we use in day to day life. There are many philosophy about love life given in a one liner which you will know once you read it. Note : The author has given credit to many notable legen This is a new age hindi story about Sudha and Chandar from Divya Prakash Dubey.
Note : The author has given credit to many notable legendary hindi writers and their work. Infact on the cover of the book, one book is 'Gunahon ka Devta' from where the author has taken lead character names.
As the book is originally written in Hindi I recommend to choose the Hindi version. Why do 'book-readers' not prefer movies? A straight answer would be, movies are concise and lack depth that the pages in books offer. Now, why do 'book-readers' absolutely hate when a book seems like a straight-up script for a movie? The answer lies with this book. Musafir Cafe could have been a great book if it didn't lack the soul that a book needs.
A book provides the essential time for its readers to know and familiarise with its characters. A book takes the readers into a dive in the plot, Why do 'book-readers' not prefer movies? A book takes the readers into a dive in the plot, lets the readers swim with the development and live the fictional lives through the words. Each and every aspect that makes a book great lacks from this one.
Musafir Cafe is just another cringy "Bollywood Romance" with its shabby narrative that spoils the every single chance of the book to become a great one. PS - The translation is pathetic. Nov 24, Tarang Sinha rated it liked it. It's an unconventional, unpredictable and entertaining love story. A quick read. The characters are very limited but interesting. However, I felt the language is something we call 'bol chaal ki bhaasha' - extra casual for a book.
Some editing errors can be spotted easily. There are many thoughtful lines but I would have liked it more the language was deeper and a little descriptive. If you are looking for a light and quick read, pick this book!
