ONE NIGHT @ CALL CENTRE

CHETAN BHAGAT

THIS BOOK WHEN I READ. I HAD A CLEAR THOUGHT THAT IT WILL REPRESENT THE YOUTH. BUT MOREOVER I FOUND, RATHER THAN REPRESENTING THE YOUTH IT REPRESENTED THE HUMAN NATURE ,HUMAN EMOTIONS AND THE THRUST FOR LOVE AFFECTION AND FRIENDSHIP AMONG THE PEOPLE.THIS BOOK ALSO OPENED THE DOORS FOR THINKING BEYOUND IMAGINATION.

THE BOOK IN ITS FIRST PART DEALS WITH THE INTRODUCTION AND THINKING OF THE PEOPLE WORKING IN A CALL CENTRE WHERE THEY HAVE TO BE PLACID.BUT IT RISES A QUESTION HOW CAN SOMEONE BE PLACID IF HE OR SHE IS NOT INTERNALY AT THAT STATE OF MIND.MOREOVER THE STPRY IS CIRCUMSTICED IN THE LIFES OF THE PEOPLE OUT THEIR AND VERY LITTLE ON THEIR JOB.THE CHARACTERS INVOLVE SHYAM, HIS EX GIRLFRIEND PRIYANKA WHO IS SOON GOING TO MARRY A N.R.I WHOM SHE HAVE MET ONLY ONCE,RADHIKA WHOSE MOTHER IN LAW IS A RING MASTER FOR RADHIKA'S HUSBAND, VICTOR, ESHA WHO WANT TO BE A SUPER MODEL AND REMEMBER SHE DONT WANT TO HAVE ANY AFFAIR AT PRESENT ,MILLIATRY UNCLE WHO SPEAK LESS AND LISTEN MORE AND EXPRESS EVEN MORE THROUGH HIS FACIAL EXPRESSION.

IN THE MEDIVIAL ERA OF THE BOOK IT DEALS WITH SHYAM'S PAST DATES WITH PRIYANKA AND AN OVERVIEW HOW MUCH SHYAM LOVED HER. BUT THEY BROKE UP AS PRIYANKA'S MOTHER WANTED PRIYANKA TO MARRY SOMEONE WHO HAS A PERMANENT STABLE POSITION NAME,FAME AND MONEY FOR HER DAILY MAKE UP.BUT STILL SHYAM HAD SOME STUFF LEFT FOR PRIYANKA IN HIS HEART AS WHEN PRIYANKA NARRATED HER PLANNING FOR THE MARRIAGE SHYAM WAS ARROUSED WITH ANGER.AND HE DARED TO TAPE HER PHONE CALL ALL THE WAY FROM U.S BY MR MICROSOFT(HIS NAME BY HIS COMPNANY WHERE HE WORKED).WHICH WAS LATER NOTICED BY PRIYANKA AND SHYAM GOT A CLEAR CUT NOTICE FOR NOT DOING IT AGAIN.BUT STILL SHYAM HAD SOMETHING IN HIS HEART WHICH HE WANTED TO SHARE WITH PRIYANKA.

NOW THE OTHER CHARACTERS, THEIR LIFES ARE EQUALLY INTRESTING ESHA DONT WANT TO HAVE ANY AFFAIR BECAUSE SHE THINKS IT WILL WASTE HER PRECIOUS TIME,BUT VICTOR WANTS ESHA TO THINK AGAIN SO THAT HE CAN GET ANY VACANCY IN HER HEART.BUT THE REAL STORY BEHIND ESHA'S BEHAVIOR WAS SOMETHING ELSE. SHE SHARED THIS WITH SHYAM THAT SHE WAS USED BY SOMEONE WHEN SHE TRUSTED HIM. SO HE HAD A MIND SET THAT ALL THE GUYS OUT ARE LOOKING ONLY FOR THE FEMALE BODY NOTHING ELSE AND SHE LOST HER EVERYTHING TRUSTING ONE SUCH PERJURED.THIS STORY VICTOR CAME TO KNOW WHEN ESHA WAS SHARING THIS WITH THE GIRLS,HE HEARED IT FROM THEIR FAV PLACE THE COMMON WALL FOR OYS AND GIRLS TOILET.AND HE WAS IN A SHOCK AFTER THIS. IN THIS SHOCK AND ANGER HE BROKED THE MONITOR OF HIS SYSTEM ALSO.

RADHIKA IS A PERFECT DAUGHTER IN LAW FOR HER FAMILY BUT THE VICE VERSA IS NOT APPLICABLE HERE.

HER MOTHER IN LAW WAS A VERY PASSIONATE COMPLAINER OF RADHIKA TO HER HUSBAND.BUT THE REAL SHOCK CAME WHEN VICTOR PLAYED A GAME OF CALLING HIS HUSBAND.SHE WAS BROKEN WHEN SHE CAME TO KNOW ABOUT HIS HUSBAND HAVING A GIRLFRIEND.

MILLIATRY UNCLE WAS A DIFFERENT CHARACTER HE WAS VERY CALM AND QUITE IN THE GROUP BUT CRIED WHEN HE REMAINED ALONE.THINKING OF HIS SON AND GRAND SON HE CRIED FOR HOURS.HIS SON WANTED HIM NOT TO INVOLVE IN HIS GRAND SON'S LIFE ,HE WAS CRYING BECAUSE HIS INVOLVEMENT IN HIS SON'S LIFE WAS THE REASON FOR HIS PROSPERITY AND SUCCESS.

HEY WAIT WAIT ONE CHARACTER IS LEFT WITHOUT WHOM ALL THE PROBLEMS IN THE LIFES OF THIS CHARACTERS IS NOTHING,THE BOSS AND THE MANAGER OF THE CALL CENTRE HE WAS THE ONE WHO WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SOON POSSIBLE PACK UP OF THE CALL CENTRE.

NOW ALL THIS WITH THEIR PROBLEMS IN THEIR MIND AND THE SYSTEM NOT WORKING PROPERLY HAD A SMALL BREAK TO THE DISCO NEAR BY AND RETURNING FROM THEIR THEY TRIED A SHORTCUT. BUT THE SHORT CUT HAD A BIG CUT ON EARTH AND THE TOYOTA QUALIS WAS IN THAT CUT HANGING ON SOME THIN RODS OF IRON. THEY ALL PRAYED FOR THEIR LIFES WHICH WAS LOOKING IMPOSSIBLE IN THAT POSITION. SUDDENLY SHYAMS MOBILE RANG WITH ALL OTHER MOBILE HAVING NO NETWORK ENEN SHYAMS MOBILE HAVING NO NETWORK.YET HE IN A CONFUSSED STATE PICKED UP THE PHONE AND HE WAS SHOCKED TO KNOW THAT GOD WAS CALLING AL THE WAY FROM HEAVEN. THEY ALL GOT MANY TIPS DIRECTLY FROM GOD AS HE CANE THEIR TO HELP THEM.HE ROMISED TO HELP THEM IF THEY ALL WILL DO WHAT THEY THINK IN THE MINUTE GIVEN BY GOD.

ESHA ACCEPTED VICTOR OFFER ,SHYAM TOLD PRIYANKA WHAT HE HAD IN HIS HEART AND THEY BOTH WERE AGAIN TOGETHER,RADHIKA PLANNED TO DIVORCE HER HUSBAND,AND THEY ALL TOGETHER ENCOUNTERED THEIR BOSS.

SO THIS WAS ALL WHAT I GOT FROM THE STORY.

BEING AN ENGINEERING STUDENT I FEKT THE BOOK WAS TO THE DEPTH OF MY HEART.

THE WRITER VERY HONESTLY KEPT HIS FEELING

INFRONT OF THE Pople AND THEY OPEN HEARTEdLY ACCEPTED THAT.

THE STORY IN ITS THRESHOLD TELLS HOW THE THREE IIT CRAKERS HARI GUPTA,RYAN OBEROI,AND ALOK. AFTER REACHING THE IIT IN THE CAPITAL OF THE COUNTRY, FINDS THE LIFE IN AN IIT. THIS PARTICULAR ERA OF THE BOOK MAY LOOK AS IT IS A BOOK MEANT FOR THE PEOPLE AT IIT OR MOREOVER FOR THE STUDENTS OF ENGINEERING.THIS HOWEVER IS NOT THE FACT BUT THIS POSSIBLITY HAS ALSO BEEN RAISEN BY CHETAN IN HIS NEXT MATERIAL.

CHETAN DESCRIBED THE STUDENTS INTO THE CATEGORIES OF TEN POINTERS AND FIVE POINTERS IT WAS A GREADE GIVEN TO THE STUDENTS FOR THEIR PERFORMANCE IN THE SEMESTER IN PLACE OF PERCENTAGE.

HARI, ALOK AND RYAN BEING FROM THREE DIFFERENT CONDITIONS LETS DISCUSS THEM.

ALOK -FROM A MEDIUM FAMILY.COMPLETED HIS PREPERATION FOR IIT NEAR THE BED IN WHICH HIS FATHER WAS LYING FROM LAST TWO YEARS HE WAS DOING A DUAL JOB OF STUDYING AND NURSING HIS FATHER.

RYAN OBEROI-HE LOVES TO HIDE FROM THE PEOPLE ABOUT HIS LIFE.HE WAS FROM A WELL STABLISHED FAMILY IN FOREIGN.BUT STILL HE NEVER REPLIED TO ANY LETTERS OF HIS PARENTS. HE WAS IN A STATE OF MIND THAT HIS PARENTS DONT LOVE HIM BECAUSE THEY HAVE NEVER BEEN WITH HIM SINCE HIS CHILDHOOD.BUT STILL HE LOVES THEM A LOT AS HE KEEPS ALL THE LETTERS PROPERLY FIXED IN HIS PERSONAL FILE.

HARI GUPTA - THIS IS THE CHARACTER WHOSE ROLE CHETAN PLAYED IN THE BOOK.HE TOLD THE STORY FROM HIS PART.HARI IS ALSO FROM A MEDIUM FAMILY NOT MUCH DEFINED ABOUT HIS FAMILY.HE FALLS IN LOVE WITH A GIRL WHO WAS VERY COMMON GIRL, AS SHE WAS THE ONLY DAUGHTER OF THE HOD OF MECHANICAL DEPTT OF WHICH THIS THREE WERE THE STUDENTS SEE HOW COMMON GIRL.

THE STORY GOES WITH THE UP AND DOWN THEY FACE BEING THE FIVE POINTERS.THEY WERE WORRIED WITH THEIR OWN RESPONSIBLITIES HARI WANTED TO GET NEHA IN ANY CASE.ALOK WANTED A JOB IN DELHI ONLY TO SUPPORT HIS FAMILY.BUT RYAN WAS NOT THE MEMBER OF THIS CROWD HE WANTED TO LIVE THE LIFE TO THE COMPLETE FLEDGE OF IT.THEY ALL MADE THERE THREE YEARS A CRAP DOING WHATEVER RYAN SAID WHATEVER WAS THE PLAN OF RYAN.EITHER GOING TO THE TERRACE FOR VODKA,GOING TO NEHA'S ROOM IN THE NIGHT ABD WHEN CHERRAIN SAW THEM AND ASKED WHO IS THERE RYAN SHOUTED "YOUR FATHER",THEY ALSO DID THE MOST SIMPLE THING AS DEFINED BY RYAN,OF STEALING PAPERS FROM THE ROOM OF THE HOD.

THERE WAS NO HOPE LEFT THAT THEY WILL BE ABLE TO COMPLETE THEIR ENGG IN FOUR YEARS MOREOVER THEY WILL GET A JOB OR NOT BUT PROF VEERA ONE OF THE FACULTY OF MECHANICAL DEPTT,HELPED THEM TO WORK ON A PROJECT DESIGNED BY RYAN,HE ALSO HELPED TO GET IT APPROVED BY THE DEAN DIRECTLY AS THE HOD CHERAIN WAS NOT GETTING IT APRROVED.THEY ALSO. THEY WORKED HARD ON THE PROJECT EVERYONE WAS IMPRESSED BUT CHERAIN WAS NOT. ONE DAY HE SAW HIS DAUGHTER WITH HARI.AS HE SAW THEM AND CAME TO THEIR TABLE HARI GAVE HIM THE LETTER WRITTEN BY HIS LATE SON THAT WHY HE COMMITTED SUICIDE.CHERRAIN WAS COMPLETELY SHOCKED AT THE MOMENT. BUT THEN HE NEVER TRIED TO BE OBBSTACLE FOR HARI AND HIS FRIENDS.HE HELPED THEM GETTING THEIR GRADES AND THEY WERE NOW ABLE TO SIT IN THE CAMPUS FOR SELECTION.HARI AND ALOK GOT THEIR JOBS BUT RYAN COULDN'T MAKE IT.SO PROFF VEERA APPOINTED HIM AS HIS ASITANT IN THE PROJECT MADE BY RYAN AND RYAN'S FATHER WAS READY TO FINNANCE THE PROJECT.

AT THE LAST ALL OF THEM SETTLED IN THEIR RESPECTIVE FIELDS BUT STILL THEY LEFT THOUSANDS OF HEARTS OF THE READERS ASKING THEM TO BE IN THEIR LIFES FOREVER.AS THE BOOK ENDED MY HEART WAS FILLED WITH A DESIRE THAT CHETAN WHY DONT U WROTE A FIVE MORE PAGES AS IM COMPLETELY ADDICTED TO BE WITH ALL OF THEM IN MY DREAMS.
