From last 2-3 years the newspapers are publishing same story, Farmer's from Marathwada are committing suicide.In my personal view until we face death close to our family/friends circle we never realize the impact of that incidence, so most of the times i used to say what an Irresponsible fellow, who'll take care of his family?,must have totally lost his mind, those are the people who just can't face any challenges go with this simple path(is it?),now after finishing this Great novel which won Sahitya Academy Award ,my whole view for farmers is completely changed.


This is the simple story of farmer from Marathwada(Agriculture Region in Maharashtra which totally depends on Rains for water) who gets married to a Girl who has some big dreams which are impossible to turn into reality in the village.His father always wants to get loan from SAWKAR(Unofficial loan Distributor who charges really high interest rates )as banks need some huge documents plus loan approval after the rains is of no use to farmers, His mother who is jealous of his wife as she lived into city & unable to adjust into Rural area & his brother who is searching for hidden treasure all the time with his literate unemployed friends from the village as he has passed the government written exam but not having any reference as well as Money which he can give to officers as BRIBE for selection.Now the story moves and some things happens which are tend to to happen in INDIA because of uncertainty of MONSOONS &.......


Guys grab the book & read it,it'll leave the same questions which are in my mind right now. It'll give you a real rural life touch to your AC,IT,APPRAISAL,MULTIPLEX world.


Plot is really simple but the characters just go directly into your heart as this is the story you can easily correlate to any family.Even after finishing the Novel 2 weeks later i was in the book zone.


No one wants to finish this beautiful life by drinking pesticides,but there are some conditions which can easily happen to anyone even a guy in IT industry.The simple message is Life Is Beautiful ,try to utilize each moment to fullest, even in the dark phase of your life you can easily find the ray of light , you just needs to
be strong & never give up at any cost!!!!!!!
