The hilarious private journal of a highly public pregnancy.
When Mona Mathur of Dehradun married her college sweetheart, Ramit Deol of Amritsar, there were two things she wasn’t prepared for:
1. The size of the Deol family – it put any Sooraj–Barjatya movie to shame.
2. The fertility of the Deol family – they reproduce faster than any other species known to mankind.
It’s been four years since their wedding, and Mona and Ramit have done the unthinkable –they’ve remained childless. Of course, that also means that they’ve battled that one question day in and day out: ‘Koi Good News?’
It doesn’t matter that they have been happy to be child-free – they are married; they are expected to make babies. After all, there are grandparents, great-grandparents, uncles, aunts and even colony aunties in waiting.
Now, the truth is, Ramit and Mona had been trying to conceive for the past one year. But having a baby isn’t as easy as it’s made out to be.
Finally, aided by the wine at their highly glamorous neighbours’ party, Mona gets pregnant. And so begins another crazy journey – complete with interfering relatives, nosy neighbours, disapproving doctors, and absolutely no privacy!
Brutally honest and thoroughly irreverent, Koi Good News? is the funniest book you’ll read this year.
About the Author
After working for Pepsi, Hindustan Times and ACNielsen for 10 years, Zarreen Khan decided to take a break and raise two children, who are sometimes kind enough to let her role-play as a marketing consultant. She lives in Delhi with her husband, dealing with the craziness of being half Muslim and half Punjabi, which is detrimental to her weight, sanity and sense of humour.
This is her second book.
