  • Representation of Problems of Youth and Fraudulent Society in Chetan Bhagat’S Revolution 2020
    SOCIAL REALISM: REPRESENTATION OF PROBLEMS OF YOUTH AND FRAUDULENT SOCIETY IN CHETAN BHAGAT’S REVOLUTION 2020 DIGAMBAR S. KULKARNI Department of English Hon. Shri. Annasaheb Dange A.C.S. College, Hatkanangale (MS) (INDIA) The present paper is an honest attempt to understand the concept of social realism in literature. Realism, broadly speaking, is the faithful or truthful representation of the events in a matter of fact way avoiding any kind of embellishment or glorification. In literature, the term ‘realism’ is associated with a number of prefixes that varies its trends of presentation. There may be philosophical realism, magic realism, surrealism, hallucinatory realism, social realism and many more. Social realism is a literary technique that presents a true picture of society. It also mirrors the life as it is and offers social commentary. The novelists who use the technique of social realism often present the social evils, social injustice and social issues that affect the life of middle class particularly. Chetan Bhagat is the well known author of six novels and all these novels are about the youth, their aspirations and problems, their struggle, success and failures. According to Chetan Bhagat, the young generation of India is on the verge of destruction. They are indulged in drinking, smoking, sex and illegal business. Gopal, the narrator-cum-protagonist of Bhagat’s fifth novel Revolution 2020: Love, Corruption, Ambition (2010) symbolically stands for the young generation of India who are walking on the wrong path. Aarti, the only female character in the novel enjoys Gopal’s company for drinking and develops sexual relations with him though she loves Raghav.

  • Representation of a New Generation in Bhagat's Five
    www.ijcrt.org © 2020 IJCRT | Volume 8, Issue 6 June 2020 | ISSN: 2320-2882 REPRESENTATION OF A NEW GENERATION IN BHAGAT’S FIVE POINT SOMEONE Mr. Sakhare Gangadhar Dhondiba JJTU Research Scholar English Language and Literature. Abstract: The liberalization of the Indian economy has dramatically and drastically influenced social life in India and scholars have commented extensively upon how the image of a ‘New India’ brand has been created by media, corporate power houses and politicians based on the changes witnessed as a result of economic reformation. The creation of this ‘New India’ brand accompanies the attempt to construct a new generation Indian subject who will play an integral role in narrating this new liberalized nation. Bhagat’s novels and protagonists are, in part, representative of the new generation Indian youth in more ways, as his novels center on the dynamics of metropolitan life and the influence of economic liberalization amongst this new generation Indian youth. The present research paper significantly sheds light on the new generation youth expressed and delineated through the dynamic characters in Five Point Someone. Keywords: New India, Zippes, liberalization, privatization, globalization, modernization etc. The generation of young India post liberalization, privatization and globalization in the early 1990s can be classified as the ‘New Generation Indian.’ Economic liberalization has increased the presence of capital, technology and information by decreasing the barriers to foreign investment and through its promotion of the modernization of telecommunications. This has resulted in a globalization of not just the economy but also lifestyles at an accelerated speed, particularly among those of the middle class belonging to the urban centres of India.
