Portrayal of Values, Beliefs and Issues in Chetan Bhagat�s �Five Point Someone�

Dr. Peena Thanky

Abstract :

<p>Chetan Bhagat has merged both highow and lowow genres into one, which is now approved as best-seller genre of the Indian English literature. He has endowed the genre with healthy humour and sanguine approach to life. Like R. K. Narayan, he does not create Malgudi village and pick up the characters from here. He chooses the personnel from the real-life metropolis. His novels go around the lives of the youth. He exactly depicts their real-life pictures and entertains all class and cadre of people. Bhagat writes about the youth and specifically for the youth. The aim of this paper is to discuss portrayal of values and beliefs in Chetan Bhagat&rsquo;s &lsquo;Five Point Someone&rsquo;.</p>
