This is the story of three young boys who are still struggling to decide their goal.
It’s the story of
Govind, a brilliant student of Mathematics. He has an aptitude & penchant for business.an, a failure in studies but a great cricketer (obviously great in the local school team).
Ishaan, a failure in studies but a great cricketer (obviously great in the local school team)
Omi, comes from a family of priests with no inclination of becoming a priest,
Vidya, Ishaan’s sister, a teenager with her eyes on Govind.
Ali, a gifted batsmen & the son of a local Muslim politician.
It’s the story of how Govind, Ishaan & Omi come up with a sports store in their area and how they achieve success in it by clubbing it with Math’s tuition & Cricket Coaching classes. The writer has thrown in the angle of Ali a gifted batsman who is in need of coaching & Ishaan comes in as his savior because he doesn’t want a brilliant talent to be wasted.
Then there is the love angle of Govind & Vidya thrown in.
And to top it all Chetan Bhagat has placed the novel in the era when Ahmedabad suffered with a nightmare of an earthquake & the riots.
The book traces the lives of these characters & their trials and tribulations. Of how their lives are impacted by the causes sometimes natural & mostly man made.
