Dear All,
Five Point Someone is now a play! Produced by Evam, India’s top theatre company, this play will be rolled out around the country with nine cities covered in the first phase.
My love for theatre (used to do lots of plays in college) and Evam’s passionate team (the founders quit their corporate job offers after their MBA to start Evam) means they have my full support for taking Indian theatre to a new level. Evam’s plays are awesome, and you can ask anyone who has seen them. The FPS adaptation will be a fire cracker.
They are offering early bird tickets on their site. Performances are live, hence limited in number and tickets sell out soon. So, don’t miss this one.
The link with all the details is here.
Regards,
Chetan

NO MUMBAI????? :O
Unfair! Unfair!
If I was in Mumbai now, I’d have travelled all the way to Pune for this… anything for FPS!
Dear Mr.CB,
I love all your books and I am thrilled about FPS play.I am from Chennai and I will watch the play for sure with my friends.BTW booking tickets now
Chetan,
Hopefully this time around you have worked out all the ‘credit’ details with EVAM… EVAM are the best in the country and am sure you do not want to defame them with controversies…

Team evam
Thanks for all the good wishes!

Team Evam
Woah.. there are so many shows of EVAM in Bangalore
.. I am so happy.. Chetan, hopefully these guys will give you all the credit you deserve, unlike Vidhu Vinod Chopra and the rest of the 3 Idiots team!!! All the best!!
This fantastic movie 3 idiots is clearly a case of general adaptation of Five Point Some One.(And yes I have read this book!) Denying it, is Plagiarism ( If y’all; Amir Raj and Vidhu are reading this).Atleast Amir should have known better,that original source deserves due respect and authentication.It appears that the soul of the movie is the Five Point Some One!
And yes I am neither related to nor a fan of Chetan Bhagat.
Just stating facts!!!
Hope to see the play in most of the Indian cities.. Way to go, Chetan Bhagat!
hey Mr Bhagat, thats great…. great news…. i am a big big fan of yours, and i always encoureged people around me to read FPS… its one of my fev book… its a book i red during my MBA… its not only a wounderful book…. but a wounderful experience for a bengali medium student (me)…
BUT HEY…….. i stayed in KOLKATA…. is there no show for kolkata???????? please let me know… n please. please….. i dont wanna miss the chance…….. please…….. i request u all… please do show in kolkata also….. please…….

i know i m bit late but just cos i really wanted to say certain tings. ihad read ur apology in TOI days back n dear u sincerely did not need to APOLOGISE. i m here defending n supporting u ,telling all wat i could n dere u apologise.
if u wanted to say den u could hav simply said u hold nothing against them n all dat followed ur APOLOGY but saying u apologise was uncalled for.
P.s. i really don know u ll read it or not but if u do den do let d word offend u,i have made sure u don miss d word.
u lost ur battle n in d bargain gained many admirers , bt just one thing minus one frm d list.
