Five point someone...


As usual, i was very late in catching up with a popular Indian writer i.e. Chetan Bhaghat. His "5 point someone" was a hilarious and a nice and easy read.


C2D - co-operate to dominate - is the concept followed by the trio at IIT to get a pass in each subject and also enjoy life. So, each one of them would attend classes of different subjects and then share notes.
Actually, in real life, while in college, people would run away, if they meet people like the trio who take drugs, drink vodka, and read odd magazines. But, the author has presented even such dreary situations romantically.
The miraculous comeback the friends-trio make after losing a semester due to a DISCO (Disciplinary Committee) is a big lesson. Even though they freaked out - they meet their deadline of getting their degrees in time and also securing jobs...
A very pleasant read...
