20 reviews for Great Indian Middle Class

  1. Mohamad Arsh

    It’s good book with all the necessary information, but the book is little boring to read. If you are a reader then give it a try.

  2. Rupal Singh

    An interesting read, but I felt it lacked depth in certain areas. The author presents a good overview, but some arguments needed more support.

  3. Hemanth Lanka

    This book confirmed many of my observations. The critique of consumerism felt especially relevant. I wish there was more about the future.

  4. Padole Rushabh Anil

    The book is a little slow to start. Once it gets going, it’s pretty insightful. I’d recommend it, but with a warning about the pace.

  5. Advaita Parmar

    Varma’s book is an eye-opener! It provides a nuanced understanding of middle-class aspirations and challenges. A must-read for anyone interested in Indian society.

  6. Muddassir Hussain

    A comprehensive and well-written analysis of the Indian middle class. It’s insightful and thought-provoking, definitely worth reading.

  7. Munikrishnappa C M

    A well-researched and engaging book that provides a clear picture of India’s middle class. Highly recommended! Very helpful for understanding.

  8. Paridhi Jain

    The book is amazing. Author’s language is so easy to understand and I really liked it. It’s a master piece.

  9. Nikunj Singhal

    A very insightful book. It helped me understand the nuances of Indian society better. A must-read for anyone interested in sociology.

  10. Amay Lahoti

    I had mixed feelings about this book. While it raised important questions, it didn’t always offer satisfactory answers. Read with a critical eye.

  11. Sweta Tripathi

    I appreciated the historical context. However, the book could have benefited from more contemporary examples. Still, a valuable contribution.

  12. Arpita Tirkey

    An excellent exploration of a complex topic. Varma’s analysis is both insightful and thought-provoking. A must-read for anyone interested in India.

  13. Pulkit Chawla

    While it offers some interesting perspectives, I found it to be somewhat biased. A good starting point, but not the final word on the subject.

  14. Vansh Gupta

    Excellent analysis of the changing values! It’s quite insightful to the disconnect shown here. Highly recommended for understanding India.

  15. Preethi Vardhan Yadav Golla

    The book is insightful, but I felt it lacked a personal touch. More stories and anecdotes would have made it more engaging, I feel.

  16. Rohit Bhardwaz

    Fascinating look into the Great Indian Middle Class. It shows changing values very beautifully. Author did good job on economic liberalisation.

  17. Anmol

    The book is okay. It did not give me full satisfaction but I liked it. One time read book for anyone.

  18. Naman Jain

    Provides a good perspective, but the tone felt a bit judgmental at times. Still, a worthwhile read for understanding modern India.

  19. Pramda Pandey

    The book offers a comprehensive overview. However, I found some parts repetitive. Overall, a decent read, but not exceptional.

  20. Prashant Kumar Yadav

    A thought-provoking exploration of the Indian middle class. Varma’s insights are sharp and relevant, though the writing style is a bit dense at times.
