“Chapter
Eleven- Kissa Corporate Bankruptcy ka’ is the third work of Amit Shankar. He
has already won many hearts with his previous works ‘Flight of Hilsa’ and ‘Love
is Vodka’. After discussing and spreading some ‘gyaan’ (what he actually denies but gyaan is there) about love,
Amit has now focused his attention on corporate world. In this work, he
narrates story of a guy VVS who is wedged in an insufficient job in Udaipur.
VVS wishes to join MNC, where he can have the charm and his dream life. Life
plays prank with him as the day he enters his dream job, the company files for
Chapter 11- bankruptcy. As the story develops, VVs comes face to face with the
bitter realities of corporate world. The feeling of diaspora grips VVS whenever
he is in opposite city. He is betrayed by life in many ways yet fights back and
makes remarkable exit.
‘Chapter
Eleven- Kissa Corporate Bankruptcy ka’ is tale of ambitions, love, betrayal,
desires. In VVS’s relation with Ambica one can see Karma paying back. Like his
two previous titles, Amit is in no mood of portraying woman as a weaker sex.
Rajeshwari, Ambica, Baiji and Chaitali all of these woman characters don’t beg
your pity. Coming from different strata of life, they have their own desires
and powers. This is the best factor I love about Amit’s works. His woman
character is strong yet tender. The concept of marriage seems futile once again
from point of view of Amit.
The novel
is quite interesting but like me if you have been student of humanities then
some part of novel would seem like alien to you. Yet Amit has tried his best in
simplifying these technological terms and has provided glossary so one won’t
need dictionary. Awesome work by Amit. Waiting to read the next one.
My overall
rating for this work is 4/5.

Great article, thank you.
ReplyDeleteFiling for bankruptcy is a drastic step, which makes most people feel overwhelmed. There is a great deal of paperwork that must be done, and filing can be emotionally taxing.
