Love him or hate him. Surely one cannot ignore him! Criticized by the ' elite readers ' and loved by the casual readers, Chetan Bhagat is the first author that every reader wants to pick up who wants to inculcate the reading habit.
Since 2004, his books have given a paradigm shift in Indian reading, and it is not exaggerating to say that his books produced many young readers and new-age authors. The coffee table books are his books because of the easy and simple language, engaging narrations, and straight stories.
There is also a set of people in the society who judge the readers if they read his books. Barring all the criticism and the not-so-favorable comments, he is still the most followed and read author!
His books have simple stories. The conversations are straightforward, and the characters are easy-going. But what is to be also taken into account is the social angle that every book has.
His books have also given a fabric on how a professional college hostel looks like, what difficulties the small-town girls and guys face when they seek their future in urbanized places and many such things.
Apart from fiction writing, he has also written three non-fiction books that question and share the idea of India with future citizens. Even the titles of those books are riveting. The nonfiction books, What Young India Wants (2012), Making India Awesome (2015), and India Positive (2019) have been received well.
During a recent conversation with him, his opinion of reading and today's decline in reading habits gives an idea about his concern. When asked why people don't read now, he replied that the advent of technology and especially social media has brought in a huge leap.
