5 TIPS TO BECOME CHETAN BHAGAT.....OR SOMEONE LIKE CHETAN BHAGAT
What makes Chetan bhagat popular ?
1.Because he is the writer of the masses….just like
Directors like Rohit shetty make massy films for the aam janta…he writes massy
books which caters to a large number of audience.
2. His stories are simple with less complications and he
glorifies one or two cities in every book and adds the local flavor of those
cities in his book. For eg. In 3 mistakes of my life, he glorified ahmedabad
and in two states, he spoke about Punjab and Chennai, in Revolution 2020 he
glorified benaras.
3. His book will also contain a romantic angle like we have
in bollywood films and to spice up the romance, he garnishes Romance with some
sex.
4. His vocabulary is simple and his English is
understandable to almost everyone who just have surface knowledge of English.
That’s why his novels are very much preferable to beginners.
5. His book will contain a lot of drama, something that we Indians
like a lot.
6. And also his book does have some humour too.
Now that he is a brand , even if someone writes crap, his
book would still sell and go on to become a bestseller……
Well what young writers need to do to make a name for
themselves ?
1 1. First and foremost…never try to copy anyone…you
are what you are…write original stuff….
2 2.Write what you feel…what you think..not what People want you to…never get influenced
by market forces.
3 3. Trust your intuitions…..write for yourself….what
pleases you…don’t write to please others but to please the writer in you…WRITE
TO EXPRESS NOT TO IMPRESS…Stick to your talent..
4 4. Keep improving yourself each day…keep reading
good books…travel around…observe people….keep collecting new ideas and keep
writing something or the other.

someone Bigger than Chetan bhagat….more money…more fame……who knows what lies in
the womb of future….Have faith in God…be positive.
