The new novel from the bestselling author of The Zoya Factor and Battle for Bittora.
In a sprawling bungalow on New Delhi s posh Hailey Road, Justice Laxmi Narayan Thakur and his wife Mamta spend their days watching anxiously over their five beautiful (but troublesome) alphabetically named daughters.
Anjini, married but an incorrigible flirt; Binodini, very worried about her children s hissa in the family property; Chandrakanta, who eloped with a foreigner on the eve of her wedding; Eshwari, who is just a little too popular at Modern School, Barakhamba Road; and the Judge s favourite (though fathers shouldn t have favourites) the quietly fiery Debjani, champion of all the stray animals on Hailey Road, who reads the English news on DD and clashes constantly with crusading journalist Dylan Singh Shekhawat, he of shining professional credentials but tarnished personal reputation, crushingly dismissive of her state-sponsored propaganda , but always seeking her out with half-sarcastic, half-intrigued dark eyes.
Spot-on funny and toe-curlingly sexy, Those Pricey Thakur Girls is rom-com specialist Anuja Chauhan writing at her sparkling best.

The Pricey Thakur Girls are adorable - but no way in the same category of our darling Zoya.But then, how many times can an author (even a brilliant one like Anuja Chauhan) can come up not only with a truly memorable main character, but a whole cast of characters who live on with you?
Well.... Anuja Chavan enthralled again, unlike the Battle for Bitthora (?). She has captured the atmosphere at the start of the Doordarshan days and the wide eyed innocence. Unlike today, when there are more t.v. chanels than there are stars behind the smoggy city skies, even the start of the mournful DD tune used to thrill.
Anyway, Do read the Pricey Thakur Girls. They are sweet, captivating and heart-warming. A couple of characters are a little bit too much on the lurid side, but overall, the books is extremely satisfactory, of yes!
So, Anuja ji, go ahead please and keep writing. Inshallah you may manage another Zoya!
Cheers

Those Pricey Thakur Girls Anuja Chauhan 9789350296028 Books Reviews
Great entertainer. I laughed out loud at several places throughout the book and the delightful romance between delectable Dylan and delicious Debjani left me in dire need for more, whIch i
Liked the plot. Well written to reflect the India in the 80s.
Recreates life in Delhi and Mumbai for the upper middle class families after Indira Gandhi's assassination and its aftermath in an amusing way.
Anuja is a good story teller. The story weaves around Debjani, a naive yet worldly girl and her family, her romance. It takes strange turns at the end, which takes the main story off a little bit. I have never been to Delhi and its environs but could relate to this well. It is a very readable story.
Love it. Great little book, little cliched hero-heroine roles but the supporting characters are fabulous. There was one line, by a very triumphant Bade Papaji that had me snorting in laughter at 2 am in the morning. The story is well told and all the characters stayed in my head, conversing in the living room of my head, for the next couple of weeks. I highly recommend reading it, light, airy and well told.
I read a favorable review in India Today. The book haunted me again when I had few hours to kill. I am so glad I bought it. The book is throwback to eighties when newsreaders were celebrities. They made staid opening of various tv transmitters hugely interesting with heaving bosoms. The book is full of colorful characters; judge who names his daughters in alphabetical order, Hot Dulari the cook, Grand old pressman who is bothered by the freedom of press as well as his bowel moments.
Anuja the author keeps the boy and girl separate in an effortless manner while keeping the attraction alive. The characters are scoped well and their interactions play out well in the great extended Indian family which includes street mongrels.
All I can say is that the author has grown in her third book. She has taken a risk in storytelling about turbulent India in 1985. The risk has paid off. What a read.
Anuja Chauhan weaves a poignant story (which i think should be perfect for a film script) around love, media, social issues in the backdrop pre-liberalization New Delhi back in the ‘80s. I have fallen in love with the male Hero character and I mentally urged the female Heroine character to see his eager, easy love behind typical attitude adopted by boys.
The characters are strikingly relatable and the story flows easily weaving in misunderstandings and a scintillating romance. Buy this book and read it. You won’t be disappointed
