"Usually, I try to write about subjects which I am familiar with since I can depict the finer nuances of the characters as well as realistic descriptions of the settings. So, what better than to write humour fiction about Ludhiana, my hometown. The love and affection of the readers have kept me motivated to continue with my writing journey, which is not without bumps," explained Dr Jas Kohli.
Since its release, the book has received encouraging feedback from the few who have already finished it- about its fast pace and interesting plot. This is a fiction book that is close to reality, and the readers may picture some familiar people when they get to know about the characters. Subtle humour and satire are aplenty, ensuring that smile will be the constant companion of those who read it. However, there is a message too; consumerism has become too powerful, at the cost of the environment, and its wings need to be clipped.
