Blurb

Three flatmates in London begin to see how different their lives are and at the same time how similar their backgrounds. And when life begins to deal its rough cards, how easy things become when they are all together!Ali is a Pakistani chef with the dream of setting up his own nihari restaurant. Shehzad is a cool tattoo artist from Bangladesh with a broken past, and Rishi is an Indian with nondescript skills.
They all make one mistake: that of falling in love with the same girl. They become arch-rivals. But when their worlds turn topsy-turvy, they have no one but each other to turn to, learning that love is as much about letting go as it is about possessing.

My Opinion

Love Curry by Pankaj Dubey is a contemporary fiction with lots of romance. The story has been adorned with many small details like patriotism, emotions, feelings and friendship. The characters were sometimes hilarious and sometimes discreet. All of them have different stories to tell which was really interesting and exciting. The story takes you on a journey in a foreign land where three people are searching for their true self. I liked the flow of the story. The only thing that was amiss was the translation. Otherwise, the book is an entertaining read. The climax had a very different tone. It felt I was also living with them in their happiness and sorrows. The funny moments were just cackling. Definitely, I would like to give 4 stars for the book.
