Review of BOMBAY DUCK IS A FISH by Kanika Dhillon
I picked up this book at the Mumbai Airport. Since I have shifted base to Mumbai recently, there is a desire to learn more about the city. A good way to do this is to expose oneself to different perspectives which various individuals have held and put down in numerous books. Maximum City by Suketu Mehta is a very good attempt, primarily because it’s a factual account and very well written.
Coming back to this book, it’s a no-brainer, an eas...

Bombay Duck is a fish! Splendid book- witty, hilarious! A roller coaster u should get on!
Loved the book. Read it in a go. My wife recommended it to me. i was not very sure initially, but saw her glued to it, and enjoying it thoroughly, well of course I was intrigued. wanted to read a chapter or two to see what the fuss was all about! Oh boy! was I in for a surprise! My advice- grab it now! Don't miss this one. It's Bollywood unplugged and hilarious.

Great Read
Picked up the book with a friends recc. she finished it in one go. was skeptical with the cover and all, but once got the story going, it was a good fun read. Interesting to see the characters in bollywood that we don't get to know otherwise. Quite liked the style with end notes...was a unique mix of surrealism and stark reality, good read. if you into a heady cocktail of bollywood mixed with dose of dark wit, i recommend it with a thumbs up.

Bombay Duck is a big let down
Neki Brar is not the first girl from small town India to come to Bombay with tinsel stars in her eyes, nor is Kanika Dhillon's book the most original. The title itself is a giveaway as anyone who is from Bombay knows that Bombay Duck is not a duck. Unfortunately in a book that is a stereotype of a stereotype Kanika only re-hashes a well known and oft told tale. Predictably the room mates have a fall out, Neki has a fling but the book has an unpredictable end - possibly the only redeeming feat...

BOMBAY dUCK, FUN READ.
LIGHT , breezy and witty. i was laughing out loud on many occasions. recommend it, the end could have been lighter. i give a five. Characters are great. industry is shown with a dose of humor. could recognize many characters. farah khan is in there too. quite fun!!!

bombay duck is a fish- MUST READ.
i read the book, although the cover seemed off. but once i started reading it, i was hooked. it was a roller coaster ride and the characters stayed with you long after reading it. loved the satire and the way it s written. Must read. (in fact many LOL moments...thumbs up for that)

I want my money back !!!!
What a pathetic book ....maybe the good looking author got bored of her profession (or was out of work I dont know )and wrote this book she should have got married instead of tormenting us readers . All I can say its better to watch a C grade hindi movie than to read her book ...I wldnot even rate this ...
