IIT-Insitue of Intersting Tales??

Well IIT's are the most prestigious engineering institutes int the country .You need to be a real genius if you want to get in to IITs..They say IIT produces best Engineering Crap in INDIA :-P!!
It seems IItians have found another way of being known ..They are kool writers too..!!

I know hundreds of people who say they love reading books and when I asked them which books they have read so far..I most of times find a common answer "Five Pt Someone and one Nght @ Call center" !! so whats actually special about these books..? anyone wonders??
Its just that those "FUN and Wicked " moments where everyone sees some shade of their lives...
Those college moments , the whole IIT culture and everything has been desribed to fascinate the readers !!
I found another Book By An "IITIAn". It was "Anything for you ma'am"by tushar raheja!!
well the Tag LIne was "ANOTHER IITIAN's LOVE STORY ".. before reading I was like this book is gonna be nothing more than the same old "HINDI FILM" story where an IIt loser will be in love with a girl whose parents are much richer than him and he finds some way of marrying her..blah blah...But it wasn't that predictable..The book was kool though.. keeping apart those extra undigesting co-incidences that happen to the author !!!

Actually my point is that After chetan bhagat's successful FPS..IIT tag has become a marketing gimmick.. !! Every one is like thinking like " agar FPS bika to ye b bike ga" !!(if FPS was a hit it would also be a Hit)!!
sometimes i feel man These IItians are too good..they have so much happening in their lives.. !! No doubt IIt has found another talent !! Its coming out with all those "masala" and "chatpate" type authors and stories !!

Way to gO for them
best of lUck!!

You r absolutely right! The concepts described in FPS seems to fascinate a lot of us..v try 2 relate to them..moreover people who weren't successfull enuf 2 get in2 IIT r too attracted..i know few such friends of mine..and people who got in2 seem 2 flaunt bout it!
It has become more of a business involving all such emotional stuff!
