The Best Couple Ever by Novoneel Chakraborty


One day I was waiting in a shopping mall for a friend to meet, suddenly noticed there is a bookstall, pilled up with Indian story books.


The catchy title first dragged me and helped to pack it. Though I was bit hesitate to presume the story, but the lines at back cover registered my decision to 'billed'.
Do you flaunt your joyful moments as filtered photographs on Facebook and Instagram?
Do you portray yourself as a forever-happy person to your followers?
Do you make people jealous of the perfect life you are living?
Do you think you are a cyber-world aspiration?
If no, chill. If yes, Congratulations!
You are their next target.
I don't know those lines are thrown to me or am I categorized liked that. But I admire by 'Like👍'ing the happy couples in Instagram or Facebook.
After reading the tagline, I presumed there will be lesson to avoid social media or such message. Why I loved this book, because it has crime, thrill, love, murder, affair, intelligence, sex.
The story begins with a question 'What is happiness?' and three well-established couples Kashvi-Parth, Dhirti-Satyam and Sanisha-Adhik. But there is another couple whose tearful ending parted the above three couples.
First pair of the couple list are a well known, established doctor Parth and Kashvi, who claims herself as social media influencer and thinks 'moneybank' Parth is the best option to live in her dream. But she was trapped to accomplish her ambition, similarly Dhriti's 'sex-hunger' pulled her in the 'Chakrabuhya'. Sanisha and Adhik story twisted differently, but eventually came out same.
The second part of the story comprises with more thrill and provoked me to flip the pages. The 'EPILOGUE' section gives the answer of 'Best Couple Ever'.
This story perfectly describes 'A perfect crime is rare, but a perfect love is rarer'.
I loved the characters, Plot and how props used to visualise the story.
