no matter wat one says,the adjective “confused” needs necessarily to be attributed,once one finishes off the entire reading,and i think in this context the majority of the people who have read would far outdo the minority,and lastly,one really can’t turn a blind eye to his faults,no matter how big a fan you may be.Even,i believe all those who have blogged here are somewhere great fans of him,myself being one.But,he could have delivered much more for sure,anyways u like it or not,u always have to go through the works of great people,this being no exception!

The book s really good,its no use comparin it wid the others,all 3 are intriguing and mind-dazzling in their own way,wat i really learnt from this book is that der is a lot of hype that exists in today ‘s community reagardin de ‘caste-wars’,mr bhagath has given us a beautiful insight into dis from another perspective,we should appreciate his boldness for that,apart from that the character govind’s mistakes are quite relatable to today’s youth,overall de book was worth readin 3 cheers to u mr bhagath

Confused is the one word review for the book.
Absolutely agree on that with you.

Bhagat has tried to squeeze in a lot of morals for the reader. I guess he was confused whether or not to touch deep politics, and so was seen publicizing his book on the entrepreneurial front.
After finishing the book most people realise the 4th mistake.

That’s the mistake you are committing. You read this book with a preoccupied mind that compared the previous work of author with the latest one.
I got a clear message from this one though I understood it already. The message is

1. One should not keep a stiff mindset about people. Govind considered Omi & Ish mindless before they became partners. But both of them contributed in one or other way in business.
2. One should not consider human beings to be a tool to get something. The choice of including Omi in business was to get his shop inside temple. Govind cursed Omi in narration at one point or other, whenever he got a chance. For him, Omi was just a mean to do some work. He needed people not friends in the business. Given a choice, he would have taken some intelligent stranger in business rather than Omi and Ish. Later they became the integral part of venture.
People, either as partners or employees, should be trusted first. Businessmen with ‘USE & THROW” mindset can not be successful. This comes into their personal life, also, very easily.
Thanks

The character “Govind” reminded me of Nirav. for some strange reason I could see a connection between the two characters.

overall the book didn’t excite me enough as Five Point Someone. and yes, I agree I didn’t know what he was trying to get at by the end.
