Review : THARKI by Kunal Marathe.

By -

Name of the book: Tharki
Author: Kunal Marathe
Published by: Legendary Books India
Number of Pages: 202
Genre: Non-Fiction

Tharki, a Hindi word, which in English means someone who is lascivious, pervert or lewd; however the story of this book is nowhere close to its meaning.

 The story is of a guy from a middle-class Maharastrian family, wherein it is very common for the parents to work hard to make sure their child goes to the best possible school/college and pursue great careers, falls in love with a girl at his school - Tara. While the love story takes an abrupt yet a dramatic twist, the story gets nothing but more interesting.

The author and the protagonist of the story – Kunal, goes through a series of repercussion post his break up with Tara; he gives up his dream career in Merchant Navy and lands up in a dingy room where all he does is smoke his lungs out and becomes a drunkard.

His constant friends during his bad (and later, the good) days were Hari and Mahesh.

The story has its own twists and turns that not only makes you turn the page to next and read more but it keeps the reader intrigued with suspense!

Kunal not only has written the story pretty beautifully with just the correct amount of love, drama, action and thrill but also has penned it down in simple English where you can connect almost instantly.

I finished reading this wonderful book in less than 5 hours or less and had my heartbeats rising and slowing down as and when the story progressed. It is definitely not just a romance read where the town is painted pink and goes well but it is a story which most of us have would have been through – love and betrayal!

To find what the actual story is, buy the book right away from the link mentioned below:

I would give this a definite 5 stars out of 5 and waiting for part 2 and 3 (as confirmed with him.)

The book makes me think of the great saying – Do not judge the book by its cover!

Beauty doesn't have a size!!

“ Y ou are so fat!”, said someone. “You need to join a gym and lose that weight!”, said another. “You are fat and ugly and disgusting!”, exclaimed someone. When someone says that being fat is ugly or disgusting, they really need to understand than fatness is not ugly, period. I as a kid always loved eating cake and biscuits, but I was active in sports and cultural activities too. When puberty hit me, I started gaining weight and the only sports the teachers at my school would ask me to participate were “tug-of-war” or “kabaddi”. The people at my school would make fun of me, would call me “fatty” and would never talk to me. By the time I was 15; I had lost most of the “so-called” friends and had lost all hope of having any left in the near future. I had lost all my self confidence by then! When I had to leave my town for studying grad, I was scared to go because even there people won’t talk to me or would bully me! But the truth turned out to be differe...
