I haven't read the book but I have heard it was rubbish.
And the film was ok. So my vote goes to the film.

Havent read the book noe seen the film.. but books anyay better than films. Books has connection between author an readers' imagination bond, films only have visual bond. And one can appreacite the what brain can
see, eys cant.. even in sleep, eyes r closed but we get vivid dreams.
Also, Author has liberty to go on length what the characters r thinking.. in movies, they cant do as much what the characters r thinking. Books have no time or page limits, films have.

Herz what SLB prouced saraswatichanra butchered the oeriginal novel into pieces on star plus..

Govardhanram Madhavram Tripathi

the author of numerous acclaimed works, including Saraswatichandra, This well known novel has become one of the most widely read books of all time in Gujarati Literature till date.

"There is Govardhanram who is ornate and high-flown, but he has been acclaimed as a classic writer of a chaste style."

Mahatma Gandhi

I read the book and it was okay and strictly a one-time read . But the book was definitely better than the movie unlike 3 idiots where it was 1000 times better than the book ( But 3 idiots is not fully based on 5 point someone )

I liked the book more.. Movie was good..but I had high expectations from the Aliaa and Arjun pair..which they did not live up to..Both the fathers..Ronit and Shiv Subramanium were closest to the original characters..
The only movie which I felt was better than CB's book. was Kai Po Che..Did not like 3 Mistakes at all..But the movie was fab..

I prefer the movies than Chetan Bhagats novels.
