Of all the books I have read offlate..I find this the best..

Its about this little guy Piscine Patel a.k.a. Pi Patel  (no..he is not named after the mathematical symbol  but a swimming pool)and his journey his fighting for survival..

And then Richard Parker,a Bengal Tiger accompanying him in his lonely estranged travel..

There are lot of good stuff about this book.. and i loved every page of this book..it is fantasy..it is reality..its fiction..it is adventure..

This book reminded me of  Chetan Bhagat’s One Night at a call center at lot of places..while life of Pi  is way different from the other one..and it is just my take…

One of my favourite quote from this book.. Where we can, we must give things a meaningful shape..

Train to Pakistan by Kushwant Singh

What an ending! I read the ending three times..Wanted to know whether i got it correct..No..Still I didnt..

 I was hesitant when I picked this book..but i couldnt keep it down..very few pages and an easy read..

Read very few novels by Indian Authors and amongst all I find this one the best..

The Great Gatsby by F.Scott Fritzgerald

After White Tiger by Aravind Adigas, this is my 2^nd ebook..I’m not a big fan of PDFs

Loved the way it started..

‎’Whenever you like criticizing anyone,’ he told me, ‘just remember that all the people in this world haven’t had the advantages that you’ve had’

 I was more curious to know about this guy Jay Gatsby..and that made me to keep going on ..

I somehow felt..I would have loved it if i had had read this few years ago..

I’m not saying its a bad good..but not my best too..

“ShashiTharoor

Frantic constituency day: inspected incomplete AirIndia hangar 2press for action, observed StateAssembly, inaugurated jail,spoke at a school”

He inaugurated a jail today. Is this something that we should be proud of? With the increase in populations, the crime rate is also increasing?

What exactly happens in jail? I’m a layman and I really do not know what is happening in the jail..I’d like to know what exactly happens in jail and how the prisoners are treated. Is it exactly the way they show in films or is it any different?

I have seen in most Government offices in India the officers with higher designation act like the masters to the one with lower ranks. When this happens in between colleagues, how a prisoner is treated by the officers in jail?

Is there somebody or some kind of process or something which concentrates on how to reduce the in mates in jail?

Are the inmates given any kind of counseling regularly?

P.S. : I’m not blaming Mr. Tharoor. Is just a thought or few questions after reading his tweet.

Few months ago..that was the time we started speaking to each other well.. He told me that he had lost his mobile in a parking lot near MG Road.. and this fellow is lucky enough and he found his mobile late in de nite..(and his new phone…..he dropped that in the middle of a traffic and he never got it back… thtsa lil sad ending at times…..)

Hamara mallu man, once travelling from Gods own country to Bangalore..he left his bike key in the bus..Bugger traced the bus..and got his keys back..Another time he told me that he lost his bike keys again and got a duplicate key made for his bike..and the original key was just lying down near his feet…once he found his helmet replaced by a solid pungent smelling small helmet at the parking lot…… he lost his another new helmet in the parking lot once…thats gone..

Tuesday Morning..he told me that he lost his bike..it (w)a(s) Pulsar 200.. he told me that he had parked the bike infront of his house the previous night..and morning when he came down to take his bike..it was missing..its an one year and half yr old bike..and the insurance was expired a lil over half yr…He told me that he had given a police complaint..Like me..most of my colleagues were feeling sorry for him..His gchat status on that day says, “Myself, cant stop losing things…. and this time something BIG. Thanks to those souls for helpin me lose it… So very Satisfied”“..

Yesterday evening he got a call from the police department..Saying that they found a bike without a number plate close to the place where he stays..he went and fortunately for this Lucky guy that bike was his…and now his gchat status says,”Myself, cant stop losing things…. and this time something BIG.    Thanks to those souls for helpin me get it… So very Satisfied”

First thing I noticed was..the book is no more called as Q and A..Now the name of the book is Slumdog Millionaire previously Q and A.. Yeah..The impact is more on the movie than the book..after all the movie had won 8 academy awards..

Then There are lot of difference between the movie and the book.

I found the movie is very real than the book..Yes!! The book is rather filmy and I didnt like the book..Ram Mohammed Thomas is not Jamal Malik..They both are different..

If you have already watched the movie and have plans to read the book, My suggestion is Please don’t..Not worth..
