Even a brief description of farmer’s issue is also ok as the author did not stretch it much like the foodporn issue. Other references include that to a brief description of google map utility and uber which was ok. The targeted readers of this book will not even realize this disguising analogy. I can only guess if this is an intentional reference to Paulo Coelho’s Eleven Minutes, and if that is true then it is not good. Multiple reference of eleven minutes also didn’t go well with me. His social interaction is doing the job of inspiring the people but not the book. I can now relate why Mr Bhagat is regularly posting his running pics on Instagram handle. I could understand that the author attempted to inspire people to remain healthy, but it became redundant. Sourabh, Prerna’s lover was not sad on her fiancee’s death, and moved on pretty quickly, maybe to let the reader think of him as one of the suspect, but that emotion of sadness I felt needed more space in the plot.īody-shaming reference was overused, so much so that it irritated me. The mention of Virji was overused and frustrated me, rest was ok. There were several characters- Sourabh, Keshav, Anjali, Prerna, Ramesh, Bindu, Neelam, Singh, ACP, Aditya, Maajee, and each character addresses one another with their relation like Bhai, Maajee, Virjee, etc. Willing to leave the story in between, I continued and finished with an urge to know how the book was written. Narration didn’t impress me much, for it never gripped me with its descriptions of other aspects apart from the central plot.

Writing is simple, anybody should be able to understand the language. This mystery book was written under these backdrops along with the family secrets and drama that ran in the Malhotra family. The reason I believe might be to help reader relate with their day-to-day life. In several instances, other current topics like farmer’s issue of India and the usage of google map and Uber were discussed. For example, Saurabh’s character was used to let the reader know the ill effects of obesity and how foodporn was an addiction in an obese's life. All throughout the mystery, Bhagat has tried to indict social messages. With that starts the investigation of her murder, Saurabh, her lover, and Keshav along with police investigates this Karvachauth Murder case. She fell from her terrace on the night of Karvachauth. This whodunit story opened up with Prerna’s death. The conclusion was not unexpected though the name sells not the book or the story, and it would be difficult to understand with just one book as what goes behind is often invisible.īut before I dig into other aspects, let us take a quick look into One Arranged Murder. I picked up Mr Bhagat’s book to check what is it that makes him sell so many books.
