Govind orders passport and visa on phone with a travel agent as if he is ordering a domestic air ticket-That is odd-passport takes nearly 2 months to arrive and includes police verification and other formalities. 30 mins after the match these guys take over the stadium and let Ali face 6 balls-No one ever questioned them/noticed Ali’s ability to hit sixes? Ground staff, photojournalists, management, Aussi/Indian team members, security.Ĭ. Throughout the storyline no one else (Indian and Australian press, neighborhood elders etc) notices Ali’s ability?ī. Isn’t that ODD? When VIPs visit some places do guards detain someone from their team? Stadium officials just let them sit in VIP stand? Why didn’t they introduce these people to someone from the team-say team manager or someone for further talks? When a business man wishes to hire a celebrity for endorsement they approach the celebrity through proper channels-not by bumping into them while they play.

Security guard in turn consults a set of officials and lets them in to VIP stand after detaining Omi. Can anyone really fool an entire set of stadium officials with one VIP visiting card? Ali is taken to Goa stadium and Govind flashes a visiting card to the security guard, stating he is a rich businessman and wants to get an Australian player as brand ambassador.

Vidya and Govind go to market to buy guidebooks for former’s exam “What is this?-Vidya said as she tried to lift the book with her left hand. Excluding the death of several people during riots (including Omi, his cousin and Mama) the story otherwise has an happy ending. Chetan finds and meets this guy and story begins from a flashback. The story begins with Govind writing an email to Chetan after consuming sleep pills as a suicide attempt due to his 3 mistakes.

What do you feel? Book gives real near life description of why many students hate maths, a kind of inside view of election politics and Gujarath riots, the challenges and differences people face while chasing big dreams and more, all in all giving you your money's worth. Not feeling anything unique about these mistakes. Most of us fall in love (one sided at least) and at some point in our life we do think and act selfish. Are these really qualify as mistakes? All of us lose money due to bad decisions and unexpected circumstances.
