Very true. I loved it. Chetan Bhagat is too over rated. His crap sales because the IIMers are over rated for anything that they do. For the media they are the “Know it all” people. But I wonder what National Geographic is doing here ? For me CB represents the new wave of crap that has engulfed India. Look around us & the newspapers need more & more of crap writers these days. Thanks Sanjay.

CB takes things light heartedly? Well obviously, you haven’t seen the likes of Jim Carrey/Steve Carrel off screen.
Has anyone read his holier than thou articles? Has anyone noticed the bloated image he has on himself in his works? The guy is an easy target by the media and possibly one of the nicest guys around, BUT, he needs someone to parody him real soon in this, the land of free-speech-but-not-really.
That being said, Sanjay, your paragraph on writers and story tellers, the best criticism on CB I’ve seen to date. You sir, have earned my self rightous FB share+like!

It was a very interesting read. However I would like to point out, that belittling someone just because he is “famous” doesn’t cut much ice does it? I cannot for one second believe Mr. Bhagat is worse or better than any of our young Indian Political leaders. And,also if you care to read Mr. Bhagat’s books, they are almost entirely based on the urban and the urbane India. I am not supporting Mr. Bhagat, nor do I have any reason to… but is bashing him the right thing way to go about it? If you need to blame anyone for Mr. Bhagat’s apparent negligent attitude to the rural India, I think you should blame it more on the NatGeo producers who decided to rope him as the showman in the first place. I think “celebrity bashing” is becoming a new trend in India. Really hoping you wouldn’t get trapped into that.

Good blog, very interesting read.

As a journalist, I am aware of the shit that floats around in the name of understanding India. Cheers!
