It Just Required One Step by Saif Israr is a contemporary political drama infused with one-sided love, friendship, family, betrayal, and ambition for power. Samar is the protagonist of the book who took admission in a law college for his graduation. There he meets his old friend Girish, a brat Sharma, his sweetheart Nupur, and one of his good friends Arun. As much as he wants to distance himself from the murkiness of politics, he gets drawn towards it magnetically. Amidst this, he falls in love with Nupur who loves someone else. The story goes on to reveal the political gimmicks and how deeply entrenched the thirst for power is in our minds. How Samar's life would go forward? Read on.
I really liked the subject the author has taken to discuss in the book. It takes courage and understanding to portray such sensitive topics and he had done a fairly good job. The characters were sketched well and the simple writing made it an enjoyable reading experience. The portrayal of Samar's relation with his family especially his father seemed raw and real. The political aspect of the book came out pretty decently and my heart goes out for the students who get trapped in such malpractices. On a side note, the government must do something to keep political influence away from the institutions of education.
What I disliked was the ending of the book and the overuse of certain language which didn't go well with me. The ending, though connected well with the cover, didn't create an impact. It was vague and unsatisfying for me. To add to this, the book does lack good editing and I would strongly suggest the author go for it.
It's a book that has an important subject at its core but I would have liked it more if it was explored and expressed well.

"It Just Required One Step" by Saif Israr is a story of friends, love and politics. There are four characters Samar, Nupur, Anubhav and Arun. The story revolves around the life of main character Samar who going to HU University in Allahabad to pursue his studies in Law.
He meets Nupur and falls in love with her the moment he sees her. Their love story is one aspect of this book, where as other is the political aspect, which can be seen by how Arun won the elections in opposition to Anubhav Sharma who is very powerful.
The story beautifully describes the college life, about canteen days and missing out on lectures to go and have fun with friends. The book will make you re-live those days. It will also give you a live in experience about the beautiful city of Lucknow.
On the other side is the negative aspects about how political power makes the management and function of the college as well as the students haywire. Also, the characters are all different from eachother and have truly been expressed greatly.

About the Book :
The book is really close to my heart I would like to mention that I am nowdays not reading any books and just going reviews by half reading them I was not in a mood to read this one too but I read as I opened the first page the font size was so good that I enjoyed reading then after a second page I got to know it was written on Lucknow, then it captured my heart truly... Lucknow is one place where I stay secondly this book is about law that is what I am persuing so for two strong reasons it gave me more information it is a fiction based story that is totally different? Now for the readers to understand I would like to tell what is different?
1) There is Muslim touch in the book that is soo overwhelming to read something as if we are a family how the protagonist said Ammi, then Kudha Hafiz, I am so touched and used to these words. I am not a Muslim but yet I feel their culture and the way they greet each other is one thing which shows immense respect and gratitude towards one and all..
2) It is about love, there is a mesmerising presence in the whole story which dragged me to invest 3 to 4 hours before I could actually write the review.. it is about session court, which tells us a different side of story how money doesn't matter but hardwork does.. yes it is true in this the protagonist father was a normal clerk in the court and his friends was working at a good position but still he got admission in Hastings university for LLM.
I Loved the plot of the book keeping the Review short her i will write what I learnt from the book.
First to achieve your dreams it's just one step required really it is so true. So meaningful tittle indeed
Secondly, I loved the end it has a emotional blend throughout the story.
Recommend to : law students, fiction lovers, People who need some kind of motivation with a gripping story indeed.

It Just Required One Step is a story that is based on student politics. It involves political drama, one-sided love, friendship, betrayal, ambition for power. The main character of the story is a law student who belongs to Lucknow. He took admission at Hastings University in Allahabad.
There he met a girl named Nupur Shrivastava. Nupur was a B.E. student of second year. When Samar met Nupur, he didn’t reveal his Muslim surname to Nupur as he thought that Nupur might not interact with her after listening to the Muslim surname.
The story involves one-sided love, political drama, ambition for power. Even though Samar didn’t want to be close to politics but he got dragged in it too much. The relationship of the Samar with his father and his family looks so real. The book clearly shows the thirst for power. For power, one can go to any extent. I recommend this book to other readers. Such a powerful story on student politics.

🍂 Book Name -- It just requires one step
🍂 Author Name -- Saif Israr
.
💠Politics is both a study and skill as to how power is exercised.Political movements mean active participation, taking procession, organizing public meetings, shouting political slogans.Today many students are involved in such activities. They need a platform to think in and share thoughts, which is offered by universities and colleges,which creates breeding grounds for new ideas, concepts, processes, beliefs and leaders.
🌸 The story is about main protagonist Samar who studies law in HU University in Allahabad. It was love at first sight for him when he saw Nupur in library. Gradually they become friends.Anubhav Sharma,his roommate was VP of students union. Because of his political background, he was don of college.Arun whom Samar met on cricket playground, wants to change the system of college and contested against Sharma in election and won also. But as they say nothing can be achieved easily. Petrol bombs, gun firing started in campus to take revenge. Story is all about how arun got arrested by police ,why Samar has to do campaigning for MP whom he didn't like, how his one sided love effects him in life to how Arun shot sharma and their life changed completely.
🍁The story makes you travel through your college days. Falling in love, canteen atmosphere, bunking lecture, changing rooms in hostel everything feels nostalgia. Author has very nicely written some truth about college life like how political background effects management of college , our bad education system where we cannot raise our voice against truth, college's professor qualifications, just to be in power students can go to any extent, money and power changes relationship etc. One thing i like about story is author has showed true sides of everyone wheather its political leader or police or college management people.
🍁Characters are very well developed and each character has its own role to play. I thought nupur's character could have been better. Language is lucid. Famous Lucknow places are described Very nicely. Climax part is very unexpected with so much drama. Overall a nice read.

When A story is constructed as powerful as politics with a soft romantic touch & nostalgia of college days, what can be better than this? This book is exactly like this. I must say, after so many days I read such a book which takes my mind & heart at a same time.
BLURB WITHOUT SPOILER:
Protagonist Samar took admission in HASTINGS UNIVERSITY (Allahabad) to study Law where Girish,his friend of Infancy , is studying. Samar will fall in love with Nupur(college-mate) & they became friend.
Day by day college became a strong platform of politics where students can express their feelings & undigested arguments through it. HU wasnt exceptional from this. Arun & Anubhab Sharma will take a vital political place in college . Those 250 pages revolves around their friendship, love, dirty political game, zest of crime , power of money and a strong background, and so on.
Though I have mentioned Samar as 'protagonist' but I must confess, after completing this book you ll understand, how important each and every character is! They all have depth & strong position in this story. Many Characters are there but they all are well managed and developed. I am awstruked by author's perfection! How brilliantly he comprised the plot & kept it engaging.
Writing style is undoubtedly appreciating because easy sentences and words haven't interrupted me during reading. Islamic words are used often which sounds really polite. Cover and Title is unique and attracting which was a semblance of how the book is! Everything was well knitted with perfection indeed.
I didnt want to complete this book! Yes! Because more I was reading, more I became a nostalgic . Somehow, somewhere I was able to relate myself with the pages where, classes were bunked, friends are irreplaceable, canteen gossips and so on.. some bitter truth and real facts of college are portrayed by Author thats genuinely a good step. A highly recommended book for everybody . Yes! For everybody.

The golden period of life is the college days, when the young mind matures and enters this unique world. Samar a young fellow pursuing his LLB from prestigious institute named Hastings university tells a lot about his life.
Untouched by the reality of college life he become friend with Anubhav sharma, student leader and Girish a bona fide guy. Initially all situations are going well. The classes, enjoyment all are daily routines of these fellow young beings. But life is not easy. When college elections are on the head, noting will remain simple. Sharma wins the election because of him fam and political background but it doesn't prove he will be a good leader or not. Arun a strong and person with well build personality rises against sharma due to his inactivity against ragging and student issues. So it results as dismissal of sharma and election of Arun as a new student leader.
When politics enters between friends everything can be change. Even it convert friendship into animosity. And this story leads to same situation. Nothing remains same as initial and everything will have be shaped by politics.
In this story we can see the harsh realities of college environment and student politics. How the powerful person acquire the positions and affect to studious lives of students. And what is the result of the such politics in colleges. It strikes the point that is the student election are necessary in the universities ?
And despite these stories the one sided love story of samar is also going on. But it is quite difficult to shape the relationship. So it also affected by all the situation which samar suffers.
Through this story I understood that how situations can transform the simple being into a brave and logical person.
This book is quite relevant to the college life and student politics on present time.
.
It reminded me chetan bhagat sir whose writing style and books converted me into a bookworm.

It Just Required One Step… Yes, just one step. This story took me to a journey of not just friendship and love, but also the hilarious politics happen in universities. Like seriously, I read books since I was 9 but this story is mind-boggling.
SAMAR, a protagonist is a simple boy from Lucknow who for the first time in his life took a decision to study at Hasting University oftenly known as Cambridge situated in Allahabad. He started his journey confused yet excited about being independent. At the university, he stays in the hostel, along with his childhood friend Girish and a boy named Sharma, who is the younger brother of ex MLA. On day one of the college, he fell in love with a girl named Nupur. And the things changed. Will he ever express his love towards Nupur? Will his childhood friendship with Girish will last forever? Will Sharma misuse his innocence for his political career or is it someone else? To get all the answers, I would suggest you to read the book.
Author Saif Israr has beautifully narrated the whole story. The narration of the story attracted me a lot. The way he narrated the love of Samar towards Nupur is simply amazing. The way he described her from head to toe… From inside out skipped my heart. I personally stay away from the topic of politics, but the issues and the consequences written in the book is truly appreciable. While talking with him personally I also came to know that the cover of the book is amazingly designed by him.
To Saif,
I am waiting for its sequel and you know that!

It just required one step
It's a political drama. The protagonist is named as Samar, who moves out from his city to pursue Law and ends up in a very difficult situation at his university which is more like a political institution rather then an educational one. People are engaged into politics college campaigns and all. Although Samar tries to maintain distance from this but falls into the trap of politics and engages himself for the same. And amidst all this he falls in love with Nupur but she loves someone else which creates more complications in their life. He also met one of his friend and makes new friends too but the main issue which revolves around them is politics which leads to some uneventful happenings in the college campus. On the other hand Samar also doesn't contain a healthy and friendly relationship with his father. Due to their differences in thinking and choice made them more distanced. And what happens in between politics and love at one sighted, you have to read to know more about it.
The language is easy and lucid. The narration and storyline is engaging too. I like the simplicity of the author in penning down all the issues which is less mentioned generally. The cover is beautiful and the title is totally apt for the story. The plot is worthy enough to read. Also all the characters are well sketched. So it's basically a story of love friendship, family, drama and politics. I will definitely recommend it to readers who would love to read in this genre. But I felt the story could have contain certain other elements too for a much greater hold in it.

Title : It just required one step
Author : Saif Israr
I studied in a college which involved with lots of politics. To an extent I didn't understand what was the need of politics in college. Is it for whole students benefits or someone specific ?. But something we cannot stop few things. These political party in colleges is one among that. What use to happen is not benefit of students but waste of time most of the days, they try to convince students to either join their parties or they conduct strike or there would any fights in college premises among two parties.
When I started reading this story, I remembered the events that happened during my college days. This story is about Samar Qureshi who belongs to a Muslim family. He wanted to be a lawyer and join for LLB in Hastings University where his friend Girish is studying. He fall for Nupur when he met her for the first time in library.

Title : It just required one step
Author : Saif Israr
I studied in a college which involved with lots of politics. To an extent I didn't understand what was the need of politics in college. Is it for whole students benefits or someone specific ?. But something we cannot stop few things. These political party in colleges is one among that. What use to happen is not benefit of students but waste of time most of the days, they try to convince students to either join their parties or they conduct strike or there would any fights in college premises among two parties.
When I started reading this story, I remembered the events that happened during my college days. This story is about Samar Qureshi who belongs to a Muslim family. He wanted to be a lawyer and join for LLB in Hastings University where his friend Girish is studying. He fall for Nupur when he met her for the first time in library. Meanwhile Author introduce us to Anubhav Sharma who is VP of the college and Arun who love to bring changes in college. Nupur fall for Sharma but his death brings a twist.

It's a roller-coaster of love and politics. 'It Just Required One Step' by Saif Israr takes us on a journey of blooming love, youth politics and the darkness involved in the mix, through the character of Samar Qureshi. When he falls in love with Nupur, he walks down the twisted path of campus politics to win her love. But two gunshots changed the course of their lives. Will he be able to achieve love? Or will the path of dirty politics lead him to lose it all?
The novel starts on a light note introducing the main character, his dilemma and his love, and it was running smoothly when all of a sudden it dropped to a world of spiralling politics. The pace fastened and I had to hold my breath with each page. The writing was simple and had a steady flow. The character development is well-appreciated. The title of the novel is justified towards the very end, and the cover states the plot. I truly appreciate the atmosphere the author created in his storytelling.
There were a few grammatical errors in the narration. There was a lot of telling and less showing which sometimes worked and sometimes didn't. In the beginning the story followed a straight path for a long time which might have been shortened, but the sudden speed made up for it.
I would recommend it to readers who would enjoy a genre dealing with campus politics, one-sided love and detached friendship. The oh-my-god moments are definitely worth it.

Book - It Just Required One Step
Author - Saif Israr
Publication - Evince Publication
Genre - Fiction
Pages- 292 pages
Format- kindle (print replica )
Rating : 3.75/5 Stars
Cover: 4.75/5 stars
Seeing the title I thought the book will about the same old cliche romance we read. But there was more to this book than those romance. We got Politics, friendship, hatred, one-sided love and parent-child relationship.
Book is about Samar who is the protagonist of the book who took admission in a law college for his graduation. There he meets his old friend Girish, a brat Sharma and his love Nupur, and one of his good friends Arun. As much as he wants to distance himself from the murkiness of politics, he gets drawn towards it magnetically. Amidst this, he falls in love with Nupur who loves someone else. The story goes on to reveal the political gimmicks and how deeply entrenched the thirst for power is in our minds.
The portrayal of the book in political perspective is written well by the author as it is a very sensitive topic and need a deep knowledge of it. But the use of certain language to show coolness was not justified according to me. The end was justified with the title of the book but for me, it was not vague and ended very hazardously.
Cover of the book is a beautiful one of the reason to pick this book. Lots of quotes in between make it more interesting language was simple but there was a certain spelling error.
All in all good read. Good for the one-time train journey read.

Title : It just required one step
Author : Saif Israr
Language : English
Edition : Paperback
Pages : 250
College life is the best time which comes in a person's life. It is a period when a person exits the teenage and enters into adulthood. In other words we can say, when a person gets out of the protective cover and enters a new world. Similar to a caged bird who has been freed and is now ready to fly.
During the college days we experience a lot of things. Not eveything we come across have a positive impact on our life. Sometimes it's bad too. We are introduced to a totally new world.
In the story Samar wanted to study in a reputated law college and eventually gets admission there. Samar met Nupur in the library and fell in love at first sight. They became friends but it was a one sided love. Gradually Samar also befriended Arun who contested against the don of the college who had a political background.
The story lands us in a college environment. It reminds us of our college days. College life is beautifully described in the story. The author also highlights how people from political background affect the college management and our education system. Indirectly the author is trying to voice against the illegal practices which are carried out in the college campus.
The book is a high paced drama hit by a political background. It is an interesting and entertaining story. The end is quite unexpected. The cover of the book is very beautiful depicting it to be based on love story. The description and narration is done vividly.

#Plot- Samar Qureshi had cracked the LFAT exam and moves from Lucknow to Allahabad to get admission in Hastings University. His relationship with his Abba was not good because of his poor performance in studies. Samar was into cricket and this distracted him from his studies. At the University he meets Girish. They have been friends for long. He also meets Arun and Anubhav sharma who happens to be vice president of students union and also younger brother of ex mla of Allahabad. Samar falls in love with a girl Nupur but Nupur loved someone else. Unlike his friends he choose to stay away from politics and power. But somehow he also later got involved in politics in order to win Nupur. Due to politics many unsocial activities take place on campus like petrol bombing and all. Thereafter someone gets murdered in college and Arun gets arrested.
Read the book to know what happens next.
#myreview - The book is all about Friendship, family, one sided love, betrayal, college politics, unsocial activities on campus, power, money, cricket..... It shows how politics inside the college affects the students. I liked the way the author has written about politics in college, the bad education system, people in power. The language is easy and the plot is engaging. Each character has his own role to play. Somewhere towards the ending the book becomes less interesting. I wasn't somehow satisfied with the ending.
Altogether it was a light read for me. Also i feel the cover could have been better.

Favorite Quote : "Fear is the murderer of every positive emotion"
⠀
• Story starts with the main character Samar Quereshi, who belongs to a Muslim family and goes to study LLB in Allahabad's HUSU University.
His childhood friend, Girish is also studying at the same uni.
⠀
• He gets acquainted with the VP of college, Anubhav Sharma and Arun, a student who wants to transmute the entire college system.
⠀
• Nevertheless he meets another important character of the story Nupur, whom she falls in love at the very first sight. Slowly they become friends and as the story grows we got to see that Nupur is already in love with Sharma, later it gets complicated and their love life comes to an end.
⠀
• As the story further goes the plot was more about political turmoil & less about love which makes it quite boring to read.
There were certain questions in the blurb which remain unanswered.
Although the climax was heartbreaking.
⠀
The books is quite relevant to the college life & student politics at present time.

Overall it's a simple and attractive read that will definitely remind you of your college days.

GENRE : Fiction

PUBLICATION : Envincepub Publishing
Blurb & A Short Review:
Samar Qureishi, an extremely excited teenager, reaches to study at Hastings University, popularly known as 'Cambridge of the East' from Lucknow to Allahabad to pursue law. This is how the novel starts. While stepping into the college, his introduction with a BE student, Nupur Shrivastava, changes his point of view on life. He instantly feels an attraction with her whereas Nupur falls for another guy. And, again his friendship with Arun and Girish gets stronger with the passage of time. Not only the fever of love, and friendship but also Samar got himself indulged with the dirty politics. This is how the plot has been trickingly settled by the author. What happened next with Samar's life is the suspense of the storyline.
Coming to the book cover part which looked dazzling, and the title, very much alluring that provoked me to continue the reading. Narration was average as sometimes the flow got reduced and I faced problems in maintaining the pace. Characters were sketched well. Language was lucid and it was overall a different read than other romance books. Author Saif Israr has done a pretty good job with the chosen sensitive topic.
My Ratings to the Book : 3.5/5

There are four characters Samar, Nupur, Anubhav and Arun. The story revolves around the life of the main character Samar who going to HU University in Allahabad to pursue his studies in Law. This story is about friends, love, and politics.
The main character Samar takes admission at Hastings University in Allahabad. There he meets Nupur, who is B.E. 2nd year. But he doesn’t reveal his religion, so she might not talk with him.
The story beautifully describes college life, about canteen days and missing out on lectures to go and have fun with friends. The book will make you re-live those days. It will also give you a live experience of the beautiful city of Lucknow. How political background effects management of the college, our bad education system where we cannot raise our voice against the truth, college's professor qualifications, just to be in power students can go to any extent, money and power changes relationship.
Very well-developed characters and no one is less to others. Language is simple and easy to understand. Good climax. Cover and title are apt to the story.

So this book is all about friendship, love , family, and ofcourse The main driving force of the book- Politics.
It tells about a common guy named Samar Qureshi, who joins Hastings university to become a lawyer and lead a normal life... but soon everything changes when he meets a beautiful girl in his college and unknowingly gets involved in the college politics ...that too at a big scale.
It teaches us some of important philosophies of life. Of facing the situations and being contended with life. About decisions That we make either on impulse or out of guilt.
This is a one sided love story of Samar and Nupur. A political goon who has power over whole university... And a rival who aspires for the same power.
This is an Indian novel(so be ready for some indian slang and indian dialogyes) and it shows the reality of these famous university ..of who politics is played at all the levels of life... and amidst all this is a simple minded introvert samar, who wants to make things right, who also wants to win the heart of his lover.. but is it possible to do it without getting your hands dirty into the dirty politics?
Ofc, a big No!!!
Reading this book actually reminded me a lot of movie Ranjhanaa(2013). (Take a hint)

It Just Required One Step by Saif Israr is a story that involves one-sided love, politics, betrayal, ambition for power and friends. The main character of the story is Samar Qureshi. He belongs to Lucknow and took admission in a law college in Allahabad for his graduation. In college, he met his old friend Girish, Sharma and Arun. He also met a girl named Nupur Srivastava in college library and he fell for her in the first sight. But things were not same from Nupur’s side as she loves someone else.
In college, Samar got involved in politics. He even had to do campaigning for the MP whom he didn’t liked at all. The story took me down the memory lane to my college days. The canteen scenes described in the story are my favorite. Falling in love, bunking lecture is what we all used to do in our college days. I could relate to the story to much extent. Just for power, students can go to any extent. Read the story to know yourself what direction Samar’s life took finally.
The language of the book is simple thereby making it easier to understand. I really feel sad for the students who get trapped in politics in reality also. I would recommend this book to all my fellow readers especially who are interested in student politics.

Title: Back to College
First and foremost noticeable thing about any book is the title which is perfectly suits to the cover but I don't like the colour of cover. It can be more beautiful. Let me move to the story, it's at a good level. Both the language and narration are beautiful. Usage of hinglish sentences makes it more lucid but some superfluous creates vexation. It can be said that book demands editing. Well, it takes you back to the college. Best thing about the story is that it reflect the light of reality (Politics in educator sector, Misuse of Power & all other chaos in a college student's life). Author mentioned some tiny-tiny well known facts, i. e; "Allahabad (Prayagraj) as the IAS factory of India", "Crowd at Allahabad Station", "Gandhi's saying, "Be the Change, you want to see in the world", "People forget the news easily in India untill and unless it is connected with them" & etc. All these factors collides with my mind and attracts the attention. Author used many gimmicks to dazzle the readers. Overall a unique read. I recommend it to everyone especially to the students.
Rating: 4.3 ✨
Title: Back to College
First and foremost noticeable thing about any book is the title which is perfectly suits to the cover but I don't like the colour of cover. It can be more beautiful. Let me move to the story, it's at a good level. Both the language and narration are beautiful. Usage of hinglish sentences makes it more lucid but some superfluous creates vexation. It can be said that book demands editing. Well, it takes you back to the college.

It Just Required One Step is a wonderful story by the author Saif Israr. This story is based on student politics. The story begins from a train journey where the protagonist of the story Samar Qureshi was going from Lucknow to Allahabad. Samar had cracked the LFAT entrance exams for Hastings University to study law. In college, he met his old friend Girish, Sharma and Arun. He also met a B.E. student named Nupur Srivastav. Samar fell in love with her. Nupur, on the other hand was in love with someone else. Samar wanted to have Nupur on his side. So, he took help from union politics to win Nupur.
Samar was a simple guy with no interest in politics at all. He only focus on his career and Cricket. Soon, election campaigning started in the college and Samar found himself getting dragged in the student politics. He even had to do campaigning for the MP whom he didn’t liked at all.
The canteen scenes described in the book are really great. It reminded me of my college days. The author has shown well that to what extent one can go for the power. Life gets really difficult for the students who get involved in politics. This is a great story that one shouldn’t miss to read at all.

.
The cover of the book is very simple and beautiful. The title is very appropriate and goes well with the book. The Story of the book is very Interesting. Being a college student, it feels so good to read about the same in the book. The story is all about Friendship, betrayal, Love, College politics, Family etc.
.
The language of the book is very easy and interesting. The narration is very smooth and the plot is very engaging and gripping. Every character is portrayed in their own way. However, I think that the story is being dragged a bit. Other than that everything goes fine. For me, the book is a very light read.

It just required one step is a story of friends, love and politics. It started with the main protagonist Samar belonging to an orthodox muslim family goes to Allahabad to study llb in Hastings University where his childhood friend Girish is studying. There he gets acquainted by two important students of that university Sharma and Arun.
Their characters are so fluctuating and are influenced so much by politicians that its hard to take their sides and Samar gets in between this and to add upon that he falls for a girl who is already in love with someone else.
- Though the ending is emotional, it once again proves that not all stories have a happy ending.
Review:
- Cover is very attractive and that is one of the main reason for me picking up this book.
- Title is very intriguing.
- Right from the beginning, the story is very interesting and is capable of not letting you put down the book.
- Power can be intimidating is the most important point protrayed all through the story.
Overall, I would recommend it to everyone who love rearing fiction.
