The Review:

First look at the title and cover and the thing which attracts me the most is the writers’ name Shasha H. singhal when we clearly know that the writer of  book is Harsh Agarwal, then why did he choose some other pen name for Nazaqat; but my all questions are answered when I finished Nazaqat.

The title too is simple and adds touch of some resemblance to some old filmy story like the girl is in need of money for her mother’s operation, her family is in urgent need of money which lend her into prostitution but that’s not the case in this book.

The blurb has been kept short and mysterious and talks about how a prostitute turns into an entrepreneur. It’s a good blurb considering the way Harsh narrated the story of nazaqat.

The story is about Nazani, naez for friends who adapted prostitution not because she is in need of money, but because she love doing it and doesn’t feel anything wrong in this business. How she plays various roles in her daily life. How beautiful Nazani turns into Sexy Nazaqat. And how virtual world plays a vital role in young Nazani’s life.

Just like her name she indeed had Nazaqat in everything she does. She was innocent and naïve at one point and just opposite another second. The curiosity she had for every new venture. She was selective with her clients. She is a feminist.  

Verdict:

If someone asked me to describe the book in one word it will be “tremendous”. It is a tale which will catch readers off guard with its wonderful story line and alluring tale of nazaqat and her story.

Harsh had done a wonderful job in portraying the character of nazaqat. Her story & her views he done a tremendous job. There are surprises in the book and the command over the narration is fabulous. A complete page turner it is. Harsh describes both dark and bright side of Nazaqat amazingly.

There are no faults in the book.

If as a reader you are looking something different or something fresh and new then without any second thought Grab your copy of Nazaqat as soon as it comes out in the market.

REVIEW EMOTIONAL FOOL

ABOUT THE BOOK

The protagonist, Selva narrates his life story? His childhood, his upbringing, friends, travels, college life, career and Priya. The story revolves around Priya, his best friend and confidante who he eventually falls in love with & attempts to court. His sensitive nature leads him to take actions that are atypical & abnormal for people around him. What happens when he continues to let his heart rule his head?

THE REVIEW

The title says it all, a very apt title for the book and additionally impressive cowl page i need to say. Once you begin reading the story, the author rushes through his initial stages of life, it felt like, lots of thoughts and characters were sent in noticeably hurry.

After the introduction of central character priya pace of the book is changed completely. This is often once you begin fully enjoying the book. selva terribly fantastically conveys tiny, specific in addition as implicit conversations between Selva and Priya. Initially you'd suppose that Priya could be a confused woman however as you make it the book you would feel the protagonist –selva is additionally very confused, it took him such a lot time to accept that its love....and “How will one not feel unhealthy if somebody you're keen on tells you that she likes someone else??? ”. It’s like living up to the title of the book ‘Emotional fool’. The book is a straightforward to browse and can leave you with the sensation that love are often such a lot painful typically. It tells you what it suggests that to love categorically and at a similar time it additionally offers you lots of insight into what all you should not do once loving. in particular I can tell one issue, the book is associate honest reflection of Selva’s thought method, how he feels regarding love, what relationship suggests that to him, and what Priya suggests that to him.

RATINGS

3.5 out of 5.

Goliyoon ki Rasleela.

Ram Leela has the soul of a misanthropic previous noir peppered with a number of tiny glimmers of masala. . Borrowing a number of pages from Shakespeare's play, this moving picture is that the epitome of formula.

The setting may be a crazy 'Bhansalized', fantastical trigger happy version of an area in Rajasthan-

Gujarat, wherever a bloke and a woman from 2 rival, constantly-clashing mob gangs fall for every different while the others are spraying bullets and shedding blood.

Performances

Deepika Padukone delivers an honest performance, as was expected. However, Ranveer is that the surprise package. Bhansali has managed to urge the simplest out of him. If DP charmed along with her swish moves and sweetness, Ranveer has given a solid performance. From his dialogue delivery to his comic temporal arrangement, the young actor gets it okay. and the way will we tend to

forget the chemistry that he shares together with his co-star! There are quite few caressing scenes,

but they need been shot esthetically. There are a number of scenes wherever Singh utterly

overshadows Deepika. In one, Ranveer says, “ Ab hum dushmani bhi nibhayenge, pyaar se.”

Though Dippy is gift within the frame, all you see is SLB’s Ram. His presence is therefore sturdy and

charismatic. Also, his shirtless act is visual treat. Supriya Pathak did  full justice to her

villainous role. when a degree, you really begin hating her. Richa Chadda, Barkha Bisht, Sharad

Kelkar and Gulshan Devaiah have compete their parts well.

VERDICT:

Amazing motion-picture photography,Direction,Choreography and such bright and delightful colors are used that you simply can’t take your eye of the screen. ‘Goliyon Ka Raasleela Ram-leela’ is visually spectacular but the love story makes little impression.

P.S: still Leela jaisa koi nahi ;)

Time for a Review:

The way this story keeps u bonded till the end is simply amazing. It does have a page-turning power and sure to keep glued in quest to find what next. Best are the parts where I always try being the author and starts visualizing the situation and next twist to the track. Surprisingly he brings different twist than what I expect.

I am in love with the way love has been captured in this novel. It just reads out loud and clear to you that love can't be bound by time or age or for that matter anything in this world.
With so much of clarifications in writing, Novoneel Chakorboty, I feel has given his best.

 His choices of words are excellent. I guess he didn’t want to overload his novel with same words again and again. But for the same reason he also used difficult words.
There is an exquisite portrayal of characterization and that made the novel worth reading making ourselves to get into
the characters. The flow is good and some of the quotes really deserves applaud.

 The two i loved more are:

 

“just like a river has different names as it traverses different territories, our love too have a different names as our life traverse different births. But the essence, the nature, the taste of love shall remain the same”
“certain choices in life develops thorns with time. But since they were your choice, you got to hold onto them even if it means your emotions continue to bleed.”

I would love to rate this book 4.5/5 & will surely recommend Ex: a twisted lovestory to everyone.

I am sure you will love this book of his too. 

I hate you Like i love you

I hope you are fine. And, even though I am the one who have decided not to see your face ever again and haven't even talked to you on the phone since the last time which was more than a year from now, I still want you to know that I miss you. I wish you were here, despite the fact that I'll never allow that to happen. 

I am glad that the last time when I left your house even though I was in tears, I managed to smile and tell you, "it’s okay". But, I am also gravely sad, because you failed to understand I was lying. Right there, I knew I will never return. Actually, may be you did realize it too that I was leaving forever and yet had let me go. Nevertheless, the dilemma remains- I miss you. 

And, yes, at the beginning I said 'friend' because even though you were and still are so much more than that to me, it's just I have yet not found the perfect word to describe you. Well, sure, we were friends, but you were different. In fact, now that I think and look back, I see you were always more than a friend to me. You were that person to whom I for the first time in my life I learned to calm down, rather than my Mom and Dad. Like my other friends I did never go crazy with you, but beside you I sat...and learned the world. I sat beside you and felt absolutely weightless. I sat beside you and dream endless. True, I was always a mess, but with you beside me I freely scattered, because I had you to gather me preciously and take home.

With you, I grooved…I was fearless more than ever. You were the person I believed who will remain. 

Back there, I was clumsy, spoiled, loud and brave, but yet you held my hand. You hugged me even though you knew I was too scared to hug back. Just like my Mom. You saw right through me, the real me. The person who has been loved way to much from her childhood, whose family and parents had loved her in such a way and granted her such freedom that sure she became the confident, stubborn, brave kid who was never afraid to fight and question the authorities, but inside very secretly who also was scared; very frightened that one day her family will not remain and the great love all in her surround will be vanished.

I miss you; I miss you smiling on my stupid deeds. I miss you trying to be tough yet giving it away to me. I miss you scolding me for whining too much, then again getting pissed because I had stopped whining according to your words. I really miss you holding me, keeping me together. I miss having lunches with you.

It’s just....I loved you. You were my friend, my shelter, and someone whom I once deeply loved and respected, but now hate. It is impossible for me to continue to love you. But you are too important to be not present in one of my most passionate feelings. And, sadly, rather than 'hate' , I know no other passionate and gallant feeling that can dare compete to 'love' ; the most profound of all feelings.
