We’ll look at how Chetan Bhagat uses humor in his writings.
In India, Chetan Bhagat is an acclaimed author whose books have received a lot of attention from readers of all ages. His use of humor is one of the fundamental elements that has increased the popularity of his works. Bhagat’s writing is characterized by an approachable, casual tone that draws readers in and gives them a sense of inclusion in the narrative.
Humor is used to lighten the tone and provide relief from the serious themes of Chetan Bhagat’s stories in his novels. He has a gift for making the audience laugh out loud with witty one-liners and situational humor. Situational humor is a literary technique in which the author invents an absurd circumstance that surprises the reader.
There are many instances like these in Chetan Bhagat’s books. For instance, a group of call center employees deal with a challenging customer by placing him on hold and then singing to him in his book, "One Night at the Call Centre." The situation makes the readers laugh out loud because it is both absurd and humorous.
For instance, Bhagat writes in his book "2 States," "World-wide, love marriages are straightforward: Boy likes girl. Girl adores the boy. They tie the knot. There are a few additional steps in India: Boy adores the girl. Girls adore boys. The girl’s family must adore the boy. The boy’s family must adore the girl. Boy’s family must be beloved by Girl’s family. Girl’s family must be loved by a boy's family. Girl and Boy are still in love. They tie the knot."
