Dedicated to my readers.......

Hello dear readers,
firstly, i would like to thank you for your precious feed back. But there are a few things i would like to explain here. I have received a few positive as well as negative feedback, and today, i would like to explain the way i look at my work of fiction. To begin with, i wrote this book with an aim to entertain people. The people who are tired after working or studying for six days a week deserve a good break. And what better than reading a good book. And as far as my book is concerned, i promise you of good entertainment, provided, you don't apply logic to the story. I mean, don't judge the book. Just flow with the incidents in it. Don't judge whether it is right or wrong, just keep your head by your side, and keep reading. I am sure it will serve as one of your best entertainments and you will never regret buying the book. There are lots of people around who complain a lot about the way the story unwinds, but let me tell you that the book is written keeping in mind the average age of a reader. So it is very difficult for a writer to satisfy each and every reader. I have given my best to entertain people, and if it hurts someone's sentiments then i am really sorry for that. Thank you for you feed back and i will try my level best to entertain you in the future.
Regards,
Mandar Kokate.

hey!!
i just completed ur book n wanted to surf through ur profile....it was a good one....seriously i really liked...but i would like to tell some negative things for which u didn't pay attention while writing this book....

Nish said...

Hey..Really loved your book...I guess with some more improvement you will be on par with some of our Indian Writers like Chetan Bhagat

I really liked the book..

Can you please let me know if you are working on another book??

Can you divulge the details of you next novel??

Rohit said...

hmmm... don't know about my reaction but yes it definitely makes me to read next chapter, but language you have used sometimes bit unnecessary and unwanted i mean yehhh many English writers have used such language in their creations but I guess you have gone an extra mile (not in positive sense) sometime I felt like I am reading a typical rupa/ penguin published novels. But overall nice try and I am proud to have someone marathi novelist, and I actually made my friends to go and buy your novel from crossword,. All the best for your next venture.

smit said...

nikhil said...

The book starts of well, and helps you empathise with the characters and put yourselves in their shoes.. however i felt that it loses focus for some time, though manages to amek you in the end.. a nice effort, though the editing has been a bit of a hassle at times.. but please do continue writing...best of luck

Unknown said...

hey there mandar,firstly i thank u fr writin such a buk....i luvd readin it....i read it juss a day b4 my 10th board examz....i completed the book in 5.30 hrs...n was vry touched by sejal's letter....bro,if possible,write its sequal....i wud luv to read it too....with best regards,MITTI....

Unknown said...

Great book Mandar!!
Started reading it at 12 in the night couldn't stop reading it till I finished it at 4am in the morning that too on the weekday knowing I have office the next day.

any plans for another book??

Anand said...

Book was very good.

But was very unrealistic.
Always gals fall for Raj! Aarti who's very good looking and beautiful [as explained by Neha], Sejal Aunt who's also a sexy one in the colony as all had eye on her.


Otherwise the book was very good and very interesting, I bought book on this Saturday night and finished it by Sunday Morning. It's awesome.

Soon I would be writing my story [my own love story].

Unknown said...

hi Mandar,

As per the above comment published, its true that this book is easy to read as i myself complete the same in a day. I found it ok initially then got the grip. It was wonderfully written.

Also at many places u really twisted the tides where we expected much of passion, but you kept in mind regarding the auidience, and cut it short. Ur subtitle said, "u will die laughing", but why such dying end to the book. Pls consider what u are showin the readers, as while purchasing they wll read the summary at the back of the book and the 1st 2nd page of ur book. Keep up to what u say.

Same questions as others asked...are you on writing the next novel.

Good work,

Manish v

manas said...

Hi Mandar !!!

Wanna read your next book. Waiting eagerly..

All the Best.

hey it was very fabulous..i really enjoyed it.raj was indeed lucky fellow & survived every time.well written again it was gd one...is there anyother book of urs??? tell me...cya

GURU said...

Hey.....
its an superb novel.
and there is no need to satisfy everyone, you just put your efforts like this what you done in this novel and it will be sure block buster.

I liked all charracters but Neha was exceptionally cool and nice charracter.

I am thinking, why movie industry is taking this story, it can become a good movie, not just for Bollywood and also Hollywood...

I hope, i could have girlfriend like Neha.....ha ha

im waiting for your next novel buddy....

Unknown said...

hey mandar... ur book is awesum.. enjoyed a lot 2 read.. i hope every teenager will like 2 read it...

ninad said...

The story was excellent and unfolded out well ... i can relate to raj's thoughts ..... that made the experience furthermore great ....
But my only complaint (over a million praises ) is that the english could have been more polished ...

Senthil Murugan R said...

hi mandar, "oh shit not again" :))).its awesome to read your book after office hours. a common book from a common man. write some pure love stories.......... do you hav another titles??????

Unknown said...

a page turner.. I loved the way u portrayed raj's personality.. The first person narration was awesome.. Bt d end was sad.. Still d sudden twists made it more enjoyble.! Keep it up.. Waiting for ur next novel.!

Santhosh Varadhan said...

hi mandar ji,

wow what book which i have ever read, finished in a night, i am suggesting my friend to read this book, i felt like i spoke to my friends about an incident when i finish the book

by
santhosh varadhan

Unknown said...

Hi Mandar,
I would like to give some sincere feedback to implement it in your next novel.Whole Novel is perfectly written except the last part. When you are entertaining people, you are not suppose to end the novel in a tragic note or I would rather say a sad ending. You have killed the interesting character Mrs.Sejal and her daugther Khushi for not a very strong reason. Neither She was poor nor she was a fool that she could not lead her life without protagonist Raj.You could have ended the story saying that She has left the town after understanding the meaning of love that Aarti had for Raj. See even i like writing and I strongly beleive we should not pass on any negative apporach of anyone towards life like commiting suicide and killing one's child that can be taken in a wrong sendse by many depressed people.

Hope You understand my point

Thanks & Regards,
Feroz

Unknown said...

Hello Mandar,

Terrific Writing Man !!

I bought your book in one of the book fairs in Bangalore, but finally read it in Colombia when i was in vacation in just 6 hours.

Review: Yes the plot is very good and interesting. I liked the Sejal's letter, interesting, very genuine & touching for the plot created.

I am now a good fan of you and want to say a few words as a good critic,
Considering the readers you could watch out for the content too, otherwise I thoroughly enjoyed the story. The first page of the book says "beware before you read...you may die laughing...". NO yaar, though the story took different twists, but NOT MAKES ONE LAUGH SO MUCH..
Hope there is a relevant first page in your next book and keep writing....

All the very best :)

Regards
Vijayan

jyotsna amla said...

hi....
it was a funny book...
but yet...
raj was a big jerk,..
he was really an idiot...
it was a fun to read...

ipsita said...

hey,
its just a while back that i completed the book. It was awesome. i would love to get along with you and write a fresh concept about perfect entertainment. please do talk to me when you come across this comment. There was no other way to reach you so its in this comment. I aspire to work with you. It would be a prefect dream come true.Waiting for your reply.Thanking you in anticipation.

Akshata said...

Hey... I read ur book & found it good. When I started it, i found it to be funny, in the mid it got irrational with some words that i found were horrible but later at end the way story turned out was amazing. At times, i found Raj was a jerk who peeped & sneaked in people's bedroom to get a rear view & also never missed a chance to kiss any girl/woman he found attention to. But later he turned out to b a mature & reliable person.
No doubt book turned bestseller coz i read it complete to find out why. Anyways, may i get more such of ur writings ahead.
Best of luck man!!!

phaneendra raju said...

Wow,what a book...

Hello Mandar Kokate,

I have enjoyed reading this book. Sejal Character is too much but I liked it too.
Thing is first initial (two or three) parts are not that good.

But I can give 3.5/5.
I Have Enjoyed Reading This Book

By the way... Best book...
keep on... Best Of Luck

Unknown said...

One of the best book that i have read,
Awesome story.
Happy end was the best thing about the book.
Although the whole story has enough mischiefs to entertain anyone.especially the one,who has been exhausted,out of work or out of studies.
I had the book since long time, but im not good at staring at books for long hours, so it was kept 'nicely' on the book shelf.��
By d way, the story was so entertaining that it would definitely keep the readers on their seat while reading the book.
I would not mind,naming my dear ones as sejal and khushi.
Looking forward for more books written by you.
