True stories are generally very interesting as we easily get connected to a few of the incidents narrated in the story. The character of 'Anu aunty' narrated in the story is such a practical one considering the contemporary neighborhoods. To get to the root of the character one must read the book. In a snippet, that character is about typical aunties, whose type at least once we come across in our lives, who take quite a lot of things about the neighbors to their heart and keep suggesting, rather pressing, their ways of living on the neighbors. When it comes to the studies and jobs of their friends' children, they take specific interest in suggesting what needs to be done and they do this irrespective of having any idea about the thoughts of their friends' children about their own lives. When such characters are not so considered in decision making in a given family, most of the decisions happen independently and to the needs and deeds of the family members, rather than for the mere 'society' as we call.

Its an inspiring as well as insightful story narrated in this book about how the author, Varun Agarwal, co-founded the million dollar company of his dreams. A lot of challenges faced have been explained in the most simple as well as in funny manner. That mainly makes this book a quick page turner and also a quick-read. It may not be everyone's dream to start a company themselves, but every job holder at some point of their careers think about it, at least once. Its not possible for everyone to follow the thoughts, due to various valid reasons though. Some people break the hurdles and start their own firms which is increasing in India in the recent times. Each one of them have their own stories. Expressing such stories will help a few others to start thinking of breaking the hurdles. Kuddos to the writer for coming up with such a book. Even if you do not have any idea of starting a firm right now, this book is still a great read.
