More a Prologue than Revolution

Every revolution has a prologue to it and Chetan Bhagat's latest seems like a good attempt at writing such a prologue. At times, I did get a feeling that Mr. Bhagat has become slightly narcissistic. It was a good tour of the general education system in India, and Varanasi too. Raghav, Aarti and Gopal felt like real people in real situations and their reactions felt relevant to our times. I do have some objections to the story, but all in all, one of Mr. Bhagat's good reads. Every great has an equivalent interesting back story of origin.

Revolution 2020 felt like a good prologue to a great revolution that would come about.

I believe Chetan could've done better with the characterization, they felt slightly stereotypical - a poor boy, a middle class boy and a rich girl, with the girl finally getting married to the middle class boy because the poor boy who became rich realized that he has acquired everything by wrong means and isn't a suitable match for the girl as the girl thinks that he has earned everything through hard - work. Does that give you a deja vou? I'm sure no producer will buy the right for this book as it feels like the book comes straight out of the movies.....Chetan are you guilty of this reverse flow??....Tell Tell.
