Book: 2 States: The Story Of My Marriage
Love marriages around the world are simple:

Boy loves girl. Girl loves boy.
They get married.

In India, there are a few more steps:

Boy loves Girl. Girl loves Boy.
Girl’s family has to love boy. Boy’s family has to love girl.
Girl’s Family has to love Boy’s Family. Boy’s family has to love girl’s family.
Girl and Boy still love each other. They get married.

Welcome to 2 States, a story about Krish and Ananya. They are from two different states of India, deeply in love and want to get married. Of course, their parents don’t agree. To convert their love story into a love marriage, the couple have a tough battle in front of them. For it is easy to fight and rebel, but it is much harder to convince. Will they make it? From the author of blockbusters Five Point Someone, One Night @ the Call Center and The 3 Mistakes of My Life, comes another witty tale about inter-community marriages in modern india.
Book Reviews of 2 States: The Story Of My Marriage
*It will be good.....!!!
Review by Senil
To be fair and direct, Chetan s a very good masala writer......., So it is obvious that this book will also be liked by people, as his previous books.....!!!
*now the time to rockkkkkkkkk
Review by fan of 3 mistake of my life
i think this is also a heartbreaking novel.
*Can't wait for the new novel by Chetan Bhagat!
Review by Arindam Moulick
Yes, let's see. I enjoyed reading all his 3 previous books. I liked Five Point Someone the best. It is a good novel. I can't wait for his new novel: 2 States: The Story of My Marriage. I haven't pre-ordered it because I'd prefer visiting my favourite bookstore and buy it from there.

Chetan Bhagat writes well. Uses very simple language. Particularly his storyline was something to write about in his novel "The Three Mistakes of My Life." I liked the love story in it. I have just finished reading "The Lost Symbol" (by Dan Brown), which I have pre-ordered Online. I guess, I must raise a toast reading Chetan Bhagat's new novel next. I think I am going great on that aspect!!
*waiting is what i can't do.....!
Review by sarthak das.......
chetan bhagat is the writer of the new generation......!his books concentrate upon the main problems of the soceity....!be it caste,religion.........and that too in a humourous way....!i like his books a lot....after his hattrick with 3 hit books.....!my expectations are sky high....!hope this book too is good like the previous three.....!lastly,the younger generation would like the idea of reading this book beacause love is an issue you get the very next door...!so best of luck.....chetan..!
*'fare' enough
Review by Srijan Sengupta
well, five point someone came out when we'd just entered college.. and i'm talking about one of those residential colleges where hostel life is the most important aspect of college life, per se. got quite blown by the mere frivolity of it, the dashing cheekiness. it was probably the worst bit of english literature i'd read till then, and though i was aware of that fact, i couldn't help the laughter and the adrenaline rush that came with reading through the bittersweet exploits of that blundering adoloscent troika.
Five years down the line, Mr Bhagat has produced two more 'novels' in that confused Indianised english lingo. Probably he should've stopped at FPS, probably he shouldn't even have written FPS itself, given that in the 'accepted' sense of the expression, he's by no means a 'real author'. Instead, he went on writing his boorish stories, returned to India and finally quit his job in order to "devote his entire time to writing and make change happen in the country".
i can't say he is by any means a good writer, but i must say i have to respect his guts and his philosophy of life. English books at 95/- was never looked at as a good idea in India, but he made that idea transform the very definition of 'English readers in India'. and that's what i like about this man, he probably knows about his own limitations; he writes bad english and haven't had a mature plot to offer since FPS (though i'm not sure if the word mature really goes with FPS). but he wants to write, and he has certain opinions that he wants to propagate through his books and articles (yes, in the much-maligned TOI itself!) and he goes on doing that. and in doing that he's already en route achieving that thing which, eventually, is the most cherished goal of all well-intentioned art, IMPACT. and probably the same logic holds with Bollywood and TOI.
i, for myself, will buy this book and read it. thumbs up, Mr Bhagat!

Review by teddy
all crazz ya this s been the rockest book of the session
*Typical Bollywood style
Review by Vasu
I wouldn't have been surprised if the book had an item song in it!!! Actually the only part that was unpredictable was when Smitha comes on stage, i was kept guessing whether she will break into a beedi jalaayile types item song... :) The book is a good read... though thoroughly predictable it was probably meant to be that way so as to identify with the reader... Some dialogues are really funny... like the "kick ass and need ice" simile... brings a smile to your face... all in all the best part of the book is the Dedication... have fun all ye readers!!!!
*nice one

Review by surjit
like his previous books this will also going to be a hilarious book and i am very much forward to read it ......so just waiting for the release of the book. best of luck to chetan.
*Good One
Review by Amit Singh
The story is not as good as "Five Point Someone" or "Three Mistakes of My Life", but the way Chetan has presented it has made it quite enjoyable! Loaded with lots of humour, the book presents some typical things about Punjabi and Tamil people in a very sweet and funny manner.
I will give it a 3 out of 5.
*Love to read
Review by Piyush
I always love to read chetan's book.... it's simply superb!!!
*Chetan needs to break new grounds now
Review by Rahul
Just finished reading 2 states. There are moments in the book which make you laugh and there are moments where you will get to think. But largely otherwise this book is just about average. I got a feeling that Chetan has repeated himself in this book. The book is not very long, but seems long and that's not good.

This book also seems to be written with the hope of converting it in a movie - too many formulas and impractical situations...probably would have worked slightly better if this were not a semi-autobiographic attempt. At times, it reads extremely corny and immaturish as well.

I am sure people who have read Chetan before (like me) will buy this book and read it and kind of enjoy it in parts atleast. His books have been light entertainment and at the price point that they sell, they are definitely worth the money that you put in and more. But whether his books remain with you and if they are your companions for multiple reads and peeks in between, i don't think so. And that's where Chetan now needs to break new grounds. Start with focusing on developing the characters, having more practical and sensible story-plots (not the typical bollywood jokes).

All said and done, i will wait for Chetan's next book - he is good fun for a few hours that it takes to read his books.
*I could not stop reading untill I reached the end..!

Amazing book and i m eagerly wating for Chetan's next creation...
*a must read for the one who is in love
Review by Manish
I have read the book , started it on a casual note but got immersed in it soon . The story is of the writer himself , the difficulty he went through "After" falling in love . The intensity , the sheer dedication that Krish (the protagonist ) had for his love Ananya , made him do and plan silly things . The end is predictable but the narration isn't . Read it .
PS : south indians can take a pass at this book , no offence intended , just a friendly advice

*Finished reading.......almost killed man...amazing...Similar to my love story..
Review by Sunny
This is one of the great novel by chetan. The effects of this would surely encourage young couples toward love marriege .Its an revolutionary weapon for a change.

This story is much simlar to mine . I am a Punjabi and still convincing my in-laws frm Bihar for this interstate ,intercast marriege with my Brahmin girlfriend.I am an NRI, fallen into love with her during our MBA in Delhi.

Chetan..............I have been reading your books and coloums.I am a big fan of yours. I read 'SPARK'too. Its brillient.

Thanks for this invaluable book'To States"

*Superb But still inferior to his first Writing
Review by Sudipto Bhattacharya
I have just completed the book and was seriously wondering whether most of the story masala came from the real life experiences of Chetan Bhagat himself? Although his creativity has the shown it's true feathers in this book, but still I missed that yound IITian who reminded me of my days in my engineering college. (not a donation wala B.E though :D)

The flow is smooth and expressions are good to go. But as usual he lacks the dominance over the words which many people expect from a novel.

7.5 out of 10 in my opinion.
*Jhakaaaas
Review by Devesh Chopda
Hats off to Chetan.

I have read the book 5 times in 3 days, and it is much more entertaining than the last 3 and also covers all the 9 ras of a human life.

*Those who give a "try" never fail!
Review by Namrata Patil,Mumbai
That's the message i got from this book. I bought it last night & finished it by today afternoon......Firstly,the book cover is Superb.The Best among the Chetan Bhagat's books....Also,apart from the central message that there should not be differences amongst Indians based on language,religion,caste,etc if India is to develop,Chetan Bhagat has given the MOST important philosophy of life to his readers through this book which is- 'There are big problems in everyone's life. It depends upon us how we look at them. If we try to solve them courageously piece-by-piece they are bound to perish one day!!!So,never give up.'
*ITS THE STORY OF MY MARRIAGE ALSO...
Review by KINGKORTOBBO...
I WAS ON MY WAY BACK FROM MY WIFE'S PLACE IN DELHI TO KOLKATA, MY HOME TOWN. AT THE AIRPORT PICKED UP THE BOOK AFTER HEARING SOME RAVE REVIEWS ABOUT THE BOOK. ACTUALLY BEING MARRIED TO A GIRL FROM ANOTHER STATE THE BOOK DREW MY ATTENTION. GOING THROUGH THE BOOK IN ONE GO I WOULD LIKE TO INSERT FEW COMMENTS. WAS THE FATHER REQUIRED TO BE MADE SUCH A VILLAIN? THE PUNJABI COMMUNITY WAS LIKE A BUNCH OF IDIOTS EXCEPT KRISH. HOWEVER OVERALL THE BOOK WAS QUIET ENJOYING. WOULD LOOK FORWARD TO SOME MORE OF BHAGATNOMICS...........
*FINISHED IT IN 5HRS:NOW DOING REVISION TOO
Review by Dineshotham Kumar
Beauty of Life comes in small thing...the same way Chetan's novels have captivated a whole new genre of readers..who have the power to transform our nation.His message is clear..the narrow boundaries of States should fall before India the Nation and ofcourse love proves the tool to do away with such ills..Yeah!!I loved this novel in that way...the tone of Chetan's novels always present the story frankly and reading novels about things of our own lyf truly stir our memories..both sweet and yeah..sad.But that's what is great about Chetan.
My Final Judgement Dear Prospective Readers...JUST BUY THE BOOK..NO 2ND THOUGHTS..
To Chetan Sir::JUST GO ON ,MAKE US READ & THINK ,IAM SURE U WILL ONEDAY COME OUT WITH A MASTERPIECE THAT WILL SURELY CHANgE HOW WE THINK ABOUT INDIA..WAITING 4 THAT DAY WITH ALL MY HEART

*Chetan Seems to be repeating himself
Review by Anil Agarwal
I have read all the books of chetan released till date. I do find them interesting and enterntaining. But somewhere having read five point i feel that 2 states repeats some concepts , some issues and punches. I think chetan has tried to continue his previous book , but i guess would have been more happy to see a variation in writing to something different. Hope it comes up in his books to come.

At 95 rs. its a cheap and entertaining time pass.

PS : i dont find any message in the book , neither do i expect one though as pointed out by other people in thier reviews.

*About the language
Review by Bobby
@Srijan Sengupta - For a person who is complaining about My Bhagat's English, I must say yours is rather bad. Poor structure, bad selection of words. Your English has no soul.
*HIS BOOK IS OUTSTANDING
Review by PRIYANKA
HE IS A BEST NOVELLER SPECIALLY FOR YOUNGESTER.HE MAKE THE PEOPLE TO DO WHAT YOU U LIKE MAY BE IT WILL WRONG FOR THE WORLD.I JUST READ HIS ALL NOVEL,ITS AMAZING AND HOPE NEW COMING IS ALSO SUPERB
*Its the BEST!!!
Review by Anchal
I must say it is the best love story I have ever read. I mean nothing is very flowery and too good to imagine.Everything is as precise and meaningful as it can be.The humour in it is superb...Frankly speaking, i did not like One night @ the call center and 3 Mistakes of my life to a great extent. But 2 states has surpassed all the boundaries of my liking.I found it a better work when compared to 5 Point Someone.It may be because when i read 5 Point Someone, I was in my college goign through those days...so i liked it at that time.But currently, my position is like Ananya in the book. It is very important issue for me in comparison to college life.thats y i liked it even more. I am pretty sure all the lovers looking forward to a love marriage are going to like it.
*DDLJ Set at IIM A
Review by Zen
Well Well another CB book and the downward graph continues............Its like DDLJ set in another world but the basic idea does not deviate.
CB is a good writer but I guess he needs to get out of his comfort zone and try something new,the basic props he uses are getting tiresome.
Hoping the next book is something he has not attempted till now.
*Not the best of his
Review by Saurabh Patni
The beginning was quite entertaining but gradually when they left the IIMA, it becomes a quite boring which we have seen in hindi movies & soaps. It picked up pace and again it fall down as if there was something missing in Chetan's story which we usually find in his other books. The end was quite unexpected as krish family readily accept his "madrasi" counterpart and her family. I'll give it 3 out of 5.

* I remembered my love story
Review by mpshridhar
Nice,writing novels is not a tough job, but like chetan, funtastic ! I remembered my love story when i was reading "One Night at the Call centre". Similarly rememberd my childhood while on readnig " Three Mistakes of my Life" But each story ends with good endings, In all cases it will not happen like me I failed to get my Priyanka(Neha), Thank u Chetan. For ur nice books.
*Loved the book Two States
Review by Prashant Varshney
I just completed Chetan's fresh book Two States. I loved the book after reading it The way he described every thing is out of this worls. The book is so humorous full of some fun filled some emotional some fighting n some happy moments.How a person can get involved with some one in love if some wants to know this than go and read it. you too will love it.. :)

At one go I finished this new addition to my favorites. Krish and Ananya lives in my heart now. The beautiful love story mixed with the Punjabi tardka and the Tamil coconut chutney is a ‘mouth watering’ addition to anyone’s book-self. After every page, I felt a pinch to pause… I don’t want to rush through the book at one go… but it happened… not once, but twice at one go…

I can only say… a must read…! Well done Chetan…

*Nailbiting !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Review by Aritra Mukherjee
Well,
Is there any word limit of this small box to applause the stateful story the two States ?? Let it not be. What is a life with a bound !!
I have never been welcomed by a book so engrossing, exuberant, emphatic and (m in short of words, in fact), in my life.Krish is amazing, a character deserves to be in iit and iim.. not jostling but having an accolade. A simple thing Krish (or Hari) always follow 'If you dont thing straight u r screwed'. Flashback - thats the magic of Chetan to literally
Thanks to Chetan, for creating such a story that can alternately make and break your heart in successive happiness and ache. More than a novelist i should say you are a terrific storyteller.

Chetan,
One more whispering thing. Convey it to Krish..
South has not changed by a nanometer from the day he left ;)
*Hyped product that does not deliver
Review by Abhishek Mishra
This book would be sold and purchased purely on the merits of the author's name. The first book 5 point someone was a good one and the idea to market it at just Rs 95 was a genius. And it helped a great deal that the book was a good read. All the books that followed cashed in on the hype of the first book but could not match the read quality of the first one. This latest one is the worst of the lot and although it would be a commercial success it, as per my humble opinion, was a total waste of money - even at Rs95. I'm disappointed because I was really looking forward for a good read.

Would I recommend it: No

Would I re-read it: No

Would I gift it: Only if the gift can be anonymous.

Review by N G Thakurta
I have read all Mr. Bhagat's books either on train or flight, so was this one too. I purchased the book at Vijaywada Station and finished it by Bhubaneswar en route to Howrah.....and frankly speaking it is nothing more than a good timepass. There was nice humor here and there, a quite predictable ending as per Mr. Bagat's standards ........ but after reading all his books I can only say he is a technical man it shows in his style which is becoming a bit predictable (not very far from boing).
Also Rs 95/- is good value for money.....that shows he knows perfect pricing..... an IIMA alumni after all.

*It's worth reading
Review by Shekhar
I had read his earlier book but unfortunately left them in between due to this or that problem ( Except Five point Someone). But this book of his right from first page aroused the curiosity and the story connected itself somewhere to me and my known one. It is sure that you will connect yourself somewhere or the other.
It is surely wrriten on the social biasing of the society which every one of us is effected with this or that way round. His way of using the words is very curiositive.
His Delhi/Chennal/Delhi and something something Krish something something is too funny, there are moments when it became too touchy and moments when u thing he is very bindas in creating masala but that's the way he writes.

Oh Man!
What do i start from?This book has made me fall right away.What an excellent narration by CB.Love you dude,felt really REAL and frank.He did his best in those situations....and I love CITIBANK AND IIM-A now!
*Its only a good Timepass
Review by Lakshmi
I was quite curious to read Chetan's latest novel which turned out to be only a good time pass. But the price of the novel is very reasonable. All the characters in the novel are very filmy and smells immature. Dialogues are punching. It can be made as a film which can become a hit entertainer in the hands of a right director. His novels are becoming stereotype with repetitions taken from his previous novels. He should try something different in his next novel so as to retain his regular readers.

*FIRST TIME EVER-a love story proved to be a motivational one(for career)
Review by Prachi
Dear writer,
I completed it in 8 consecutive hours (from 11:30pm-7:30 am).I have been preparing for CAT plus have a boyfriend from IIT-D (currently working in J.P. Morgan chase), who is a devil-may-care kindda and innocent (because least interested in girls and I career-focused) guy. A couple of things in your story and mine do match. Two things were bugging my mind like anything. first-will I’ll be in one of the IIMs, and second-will he ever grow up? Now it had to happened, I got to read it. Actually he had threatened me not to read it till I am done with CAT.
Time for THE EXPERT'S COMMENTS (bad joke? I know)...as everyone in the country is aware it's a moving love story though common in story but outstanding in narration..(Actually things become common, how we can expect God to create a new story for everyone. Population Problem you see.)...Apart from my "non-jhelable jokes”. I would like to adulate by saying "It was not just a love story but proved to me a motivational one, I started burning the midnight oils, and gird up my loins to make my dream come true(because i was really fascinated by the HALLMARK that you both possessed)..i even liked the blending of the flavor of 'united India' to it(since i am highly patriotic)..
And now I am so relaxed, and have stated to myself like his mine love story will also be fine. I have sent him a copy of the novel. Along with that I sent a love letter too to do some coaxing work and how can I forget mentioning, I put some leaves of a branch that touches my balcony (like Ananya did. sorry no flowers available neither in my hair nor in my balcony)...Thanks for bearing another writer and for the 'ACTUAL REVITALS'...i destressed myself..
*Blockbuster
Review by Ranju
