Deepak Narayanan
One Night @ the Call Center

The book is about the sequence of incidents happening in a call-center one night. The topic chosen by author is good.The book revolves around 5 people who are working in a reputed call center,but their interest lies somewhere.The main stress is on a love between two individuals who eventually break-up due to misunderstanding,Still they carry their love in their hearts.The diversity of characters are good.There was a mix of persons who is sensual and girl who is fond of modelling.These folks were accompanied by an older man and a married women.This diversity in a call-center environments make the story going.Suddenly a GOD calling on mobile don't seem to fit the story.Though there is an explanation given about this at the end of the book,it doesn't make you to accept it.Towards the end of the book there would be bike riding on a divider which makes it more cinematic and unrealistic.

The author could have taken the story in much better way.Instead of explaining the love story,he could have dealt with the problems faced by the call center employees and he could have explained it a lot better.Moreover the books unfolds at much faster pace towards the end.

So in my opinion it was an average book to read.

completely agree abt the fact that on@tcc is a very very average read. n like posted earlier... the chain of sequences at the end completely ruin the lil charm dat the book potrays in the earlier half... :fear:
suggestion : re-read five point sum1 for the candy......

Same here... i felt Five point was really amazing... but one night @ CC was a mood killer... though it was brought has some interesting facts about people and their r/s but as a whole, it went like a cheap hindi movie masala movie only.

well if it is a replica of the movie... i am certainly not going to waste my money on it..
 
yeah it is more or less a replica of the book....the script is by chetan bhagat entirely too so i guess pretty much the same shades....
