Ironical enough that I read this book on 2nd October, Mahatma’s birthday. To speak about the book I will say it tells the truth. All this while, the most fascinating feature of Chetan Bhagat’s books has been their titles.

Evidently, a lot of thought goes into the cover photograph of an autobiography, the ultimate act of putting oneself in front of the world to be dissected. From the cover of Open, Andre Agassi’s haggard face stares blankly at the reader.
