Maybe this was the book which 'inspired' K Jo to produce 'Student Of The Year'. Showcasing a lonely homosexual man at his deathbead reminiscing his life's sorry moments. But that's all you are going to get from this. And yes, the ten unholy commandments for gay indian men are here too in this book- A homosexual man must have been sexually abused in childhood! He must have been bullied! A homosexual man must be lonely! He must be devoid or incapable of any love! He must die alone! He must feel sorrow at the end of his life with the burden of his broken dreams! I am not saying gay indian men dont struggle with bullying and love or they are immune to sexual abuse in their childhood. But enough of them being served as the staple diet for gay indian literature. If a writer born in 1982 (aged around 36 now) found this is the most appropriate story he wanted to write /a sorry piece of shit/ Let me tell you otherwise. Indian gay men can be and are better than this. Try writing a real 'blurb' of gay indian men for once! And be done with your sorry stereotypes and sad caricatures!
