    Thanks for your generous comment. The next novel will come in about a year. It takes one year time for any novel's embryonic development.

    Till then you can enjoy my writings in my blogs - Graffiti and Synergy.

  11. Hi Harsh, This is Khalid from Hyderabad. I just completed your novel. No doubt you have a great capability of writing the small incident in a very interesting way. All through the book, I couldn't resist keeping it aside even for 10 minutes. I just completed it in a day. Just one small suggestion, please keep your next book a bit mature and sincere. Don't take it otherwise, but now even youngsters like the sex, gayism and other immature subject but to an extent. These topics should be like a "Tadka" in daal, and not the complete or 50% book full of it. We as youngsters also expect certain mature topics, some different (offbeat I would say) stories, some sincere message in the book, when we shell out 100 bucks for a book.
    As I said earlier, you have a great capability. And I would be waiting for your next book with some offbeat story, with mature and sincere topic with a lot of emotion and not just - sarcasm, sex, boy-after-girl phenomena.

  13. Hi Harash, This Abdallah from the UAE. I've read your novel "oops!" it is one of the most beautiful novels i've ever read.
    Just a comment to make. You add a lot of details. For example; "i felt like that, my face blushed, etc..." and describing every feeling you felt as "Kanav" in the story. Actually it makes a reader boring when he reads the story, and he becomes hungery to reach the climax as soon as possible. this kind of killed a reader in every episode of the novel. But the only thing kept us reading is "kanav" sizzling imagenary girl friend. We were so hungry to now what next. You have done a great job in writing this beautiful novel. As a reader i wish you could realease another novel like "Oops Part2" to complete "kanav" story. I really want you to finish what you have started. I'm out of ideas @ the moment, but i will post any comments later. Thank you very much for entertaining us and wish to see you in another novel of your creation. This my E-mail and i want to be in touch with you if it is OK with You. abduluae84@hotmail.com

  15. @Avriti - Thanks for your kind words. The novel is totally fictitious. Kanav never went to US, because in real life there had been no oops.

  17. Hey Harsh. I completed your novel in a go, last night. Simply awesome and irresistible. The best part was the 'Tanya-Kanav' which looked the same upside down. Completely adored it. Great sense of humor, must say. :P

    ReplyDelete
  18. @Pallavi - Thanks for being so kind. I am so very elated that you liked it.

    @Nimisha - Thank you. I didn't quite get why :P was suffixed in your last line. Does my sense of humour, in any unimaginable way, motivate you to say that?

    ReplyDelete
  19. @Harsh : With the 'humor', there often comes a :P (All thanks to our messengers and the uncountable hours, we spend on them ). Just an attempt to make the comment a little more realistic with instant reactions. :) (I'm sure you would not ask for this one, next! :P )

  27. waiting for next version of Oops! I fell in love....

  28. Harsh ...........Well Job done....but it seems you are an aggressive author, but always remember one thing, Yuvraj got the talent but with aggression started losing his chances, where as Sachin got the temperament with cool and calm head and still he is the best long race horse. Keep it up ... be cool ...you are on the edge of becoming an important personality of India, so always careful of your image that will help you to become a good human being as a great celebrity....take care ......also I keen to know what happened to Tanya, please release the second edition sooonnnnn

  29. Thanks Deep and Isha. I'm touched by your gracious words. Keep reading.

  30. hiiii kanav u would really be great to have got a divine presence with you and pls if possible convey my thanks to tanya who has really helped you achieve great heights......and 1 thing more i have become a fan of yours...i have just started chartered accountancy course and people say its a boring course but your novel has really inspired me that there must be someone..most beautiful most divine waiting for me....thanks

  31. I recently read ur work... The book was nice but the end could have been better. You should have wrote something more about Tanya and you in US. Later the book could have been ended at a point when you again meet or so...
    Congrats by the way..
