Review-
Thumbs Up-
●The plot is interesting enough and not to fall in the realm of typical love stories which are not backed up by enough wow factor.
●I might sound like hard hearted feminist but I couldn't help falling for Prachi. A protagonist with a smashing personality and it's completely understandable when she steals the spotlight from our romantic boy who was a charm himself but was nothing to compete with her personality.
●The humour is the next best thing. What else could compliment such a plot except a light hearted and classy humour.
●The last thing I couldn't cross out was the vocab. Yup..The vocabulary was brilliant. There were words used by the author that even helped me learn a word or two.
Thumbs down-
◆The best thing about the plot is also unfortunately one the one that may spoil the fun for some people. I personally admired the advertising stuff but I couldn't help notice that sometimes their "pitch" could go off tangent to some.
Personal Views-
Well if there is something that I couldn't help that will be gushing over Prachi. I really loved her character to the core, while Drona was a charm himself. I enjoyed seeing the two pair up and whip their enemies to their doom.
