Chetan Bhagat has unintentionally made himself India’s punching bag. With a flair for impetuous tweets and an unflinching resolution to self analyze, Mr Bhagat has clearly decided to face the sticks and stones that his pen inspires. He roams around our social media sites and TV channels blaring judgment on those dubiously roped into it and those who never even asked for it.

They gleefully await the moment Mr Bhagat says, does, tweets or publishes his half baked ideologies to verbally give him the equivalent of whatever tripe he dolls out. So we went through his many internet incidents to find you a few times when Chetan Bhagat was truly India’s favourite punching bag.
