This is first Marathi book which I read in my life at age of 12. This book is a masterpiece of P L Deshpande. If you are Mumbaikar then you must read this book. Don't mind if you not as well. You will feel how real Mumbaikar lives his daily life and how humor get created during day today life. Each character described in this book is unique and has own characteristics. Only humor you will find after reading this book. I would recommend this for all age groups.
Something coming from 'The Master'of marathi literature sets the standard for clean comedy. The exemplary dialogues, unique characters and typical human behaviours have been so nicely woven with simple yet sometime poignant narration of a very light hearted story. It keep a broad smile on your face from first till last page of the book. If you understand Marathi, it is a must read.

An absolute masterpiece on the daily lives and occurrences viewed through the writers experiences, the book will make you laugh but at times without knowing draw tears. If Dickens had Copperfield then PuLa had Rege, Barve, Sammel Kaka....characters you will find in everyday life but with their way to extract everything from it. This book is PhuLa(full) of life

This is an amazing book. Hats off to the quality of humor in it. I had heard about this book and P.L. Deshpande but after reading this book, I have a whole new level of respect for him. The book has some good Marathi tongue twister words. I used to read this book aloud to improve my Marathi reading. A must read book!

Every Time, I turn to Marathi Literature, I invariably reach for this Masterpiece by P.L Deshpande. The Mumbai chaal repertoire comes alive with his characters so beautifully sketched. I have giggled my way through this book every time I read it.

I have read this book twice so far. First time it was about 35 years back. Now I am reading it again.
I don't think Pu La has written humor. Rather his writing is the essence of Philosophy.
Hasata Hasata maansala antarmukh karanyachi kimaya ha shabdancha jadugar karato.

The one book that I always love to read and re-read..!! No author in marathi has ever had and will ever have capability of pula. Every person in the chal seems to be speaking to you when you read the book. It never gets old to open any page from book and fell into a bursting laughter.
pls make it available
