That's must've been a terrible book then😆. No vivid character description, at all?

I guess for-profit filmmakers will beat it to a pulp.

^Maddy,even if they take Katrina on board as Ananya,it won't be a surprise if we see the makers asking Katrina to apply charcoal powder to look South Indian onscreen.I really doubt whether they can retain the originality of Punjabis and Tamilians like in the book,you know stereotypical Bollywood.🤪I actually found out some bits of Two States in Vicky Donor recently,especially during the whole Punjabi-Bengali fight...Vicky's mom was lilke Cntrl C+Cntrl V of Krish's mom in 2 States.😆

Who is directing the film?

@Texan-Nothing great or fascinating about the story as such,but it was enjoyable.Like you know,read once and close the book.No thinking about the story,characters,etc. later.

If he describes the characters properly, how can CB finish the whole book within 100 pages..😳

CB is over-rated.

LOL. I'm sure he can describe the characters through his story, writers embed most of the character's personality through the book.

I always imagined Ranbir and DP as Kris and Ananya while reading the book. 😳

Sajid and Kjo will totally bollywoodise this book. Thats why i wanted someone like Raju to handle this. He is a good mix of bollywood and creativity in him.

I haven't read any book by Chetan Bhagat, but he seems highly overrated. I googled his books and they seem like a bollywood cliche screenplays.

I fail to understand the hype about CB too. I read Five Point Someone (inspiration of 3 Idiots) and it was pretty bad. The language is elementary and there isn't much to the book...I remember being pretty bored. I read it on a train with nothing else to do otherwise I never would have finished it. 3 Idiots is a million times better than the book which is extremely rare. Very few movies that are book adaptations are much better than the book itself.

I thu I we should give him a chance
