My suggestion to everyone is that they should read this book after watching the movie Half Girlfriend and then you find all the character real . Sraddha Kapoor as Riya and Arjun Kapoor as Madhav is fabulous. I am from Bihar also and it is hard for me to read this book as printed in English but amazing that I read this book in three days with all the emotions they felt. The letter by Riya to Madhav after leaving Dumraon made tears in my eyes. I watched this movie on 23rd of October 2022 and today is 22 November. I am still in story and trying to get out of this. I have watched it 5 times and I don't know why romantic stories affects me more than any other.
