Chetan Bhagat , born 22 April 
1974 is an Indian author, 
columnist, screenwriter and 
speaker. Bhagat writes columns 
for popular English and Hindi 
newspapers, 
including The Times of 
India and Dainik Bhaskar , 
focusing on youth, career and 
issues based on national 
development. ".
Chetan Bhagat is the author of bestselling 
novels. Five Point Someone(2004), One Night 
@ the Call Center (2005), The 3 Mistakes of 
My Life (2008), 2 States (2009), Revolution 
2020 (2011), What Young India Wants (2012) 
and Half Girlfriend (2014). 
All the books have remained bestsellers 
since their release and four have 
inspired Bollywood films (including the hit 
films 3 Idiots , Kai Po Che! and2 States). 
In 2008, The New York Times cited Bhagat as 
"the biggest selling English language novelist in 
Indias history
Set in Gujarat, the story revolves around three friends, 
Ishaan , Omi and Govind , who want to start their own 
sports shop and sports academy. The book tracks their 
deep friendship, and innocence tarnished by religious 
politics and communal hatred, which results in their 
fallout, and an eventual death.The other characters are : 
Vidya (Ishaans sister) 
Ali 
Bitoo mama 
Govinds mom 
Alis Father 
Fred Li ( An Australian fast bowler )
Ishaan "Ish" Bhatt is an ex district level cricketer 
who is a victim of politics in the cricketing 
selection, fraternity, Omi is from a priest family 
but not interested in becoming a priest & is also 
the nephew of a Hindu politician (Bittu) who 
funds their business and Govind "Govi" Patel is a 
geek who is the mastermind behind starting a 
sports shop which also doubles as a sports 
academy.
The shop propers as ishaan coaches 
young boys in cricket & govind teaches 
mathematics to vidya (ishaans sister) as 
her exams were coming up. 
They wanted to expand there business in 
new city mall. They select the prime 
location for shop in the mall and also pays 
the advance.
Omis Bitoo mama (maternal uncle), a communal 
party man bent on converting the young ones into 
fighters in the name of hinduism and wants that 
these boys should work for their secular party. 
Ishaan then meets Ali, a muslim child cricket 
master , with reflex condition to hit a six every 
ball , but cant play more than an over due to a 
weakness.
They agreed to provide cricket coaching and 
maths tuition free of cost to Ali . Ali displays a 
talent which Ishaan never had in him and Alis 
destiny becomes his own. 
Meanwhile , on the republic day , earthcame 
came in gujarat , destroying the mall in which 
they had booked a shop. 
The money invested 1,10,000 in the mall shop 
turns into the first big mistake of Govind
They endure great pains to take Ali all the way to 
asutralia at the suggestion of an australian 
player.There , Ali is offered an contract on the 
condition that he has to become an australian 
citizen , is refused by Ali. 
Govind at the other end , falls in love with his best 
friend ishaans sister vidya. 
This was his second big mistake.
Bitoo mama sends his son and omis mother to 
ayodhya with some sevaks. 
One their return , the muslims mob puts on fire at 
a bogie . In that, mama lost her son and his 
sister. 
The whole city burns into riot fire. Bitoo mama , 
with his party workers kills alis family. 
Now , he also wanted to kill ali.
Ishaan finds out about vidya and govind , a 
betrayal he does not forgive. 
Meanwhile in order to save Ali from omi and his 
mama , Ishaan was killed . 
Govind while protecting ali from omi , makes a 
seconf delay in deciding because of his own 
selfishness, resulting in a hit to alis wrist. 
THIS WAS HIS THIRD MISTAKE
THE MOVIE KAI PO CHE! , A HIT WAS ADAPTED FROM 3 
MISTAKES OF LIFE & HAS BARELY A CHANGED STORYLINE.
The story has been written in relation with 
3 real life incidents and he does the job of 
inter relating the incidents well. But of the 
three mistakes the first mistake was not 
avoidable as earthquakes are caused by 
nature. The second mistake is alright as it 
deals with morality. And the third mistake 
is about what could have happened if action 
had been taken a second earlier.
Do these really qualify as mistakes? 
All of us lose money due to bad 
decisions and unexpected 
circumstances. Most of us fall in love 
(one sided at least) and at some point 
in our life we do think and act selfish. 
Not feeling anything unique about 
these mistakes. 
According to me these do not really 
qualify as mistakes.
