A comedy of romance and crossed lines.
Six friends are selling home appliances to the US from a call centre in India. Each one has an issue with love. Call agent Sam works right beside the girl who's just dumped him. He's dating someone he can't stand just to get over her. Esha is just short of becoming a model. Two inches, to be precise. Vroom wants to change the world. Radikha's trying to manage her mother-in-law and hold down her job.
Tonight is Thanksgiving in America, and customers are queueing up to complain about white goods going wrong. On this night of a thousand phone calls, when life couldn't look more dismal, one unique caller gets on the line. And that call is going to change everything....
A romantic comedy of six friends kicking against the system, against their boss and against each other. Something's got to give....

Please have someone else narrate the audiobook
The book itself is amazing and definitely deserves a read, but the narrator for this audiobook is terrible. The accents and voices he puts into certain characters (like Bakshi and Vroom) when it’s not necessary stick out like a sore thumb, and he mispronounces quite a few Indian-language words throughout the book (usually Hindi words that are uncommon in Punjabi - the reason why I mention Punjabi is that words that exist in Punjabi are pronounced as they are in Punjabi rather than Hindi, and I know this because I myself am Punjabi). He even mispronounced the author’s name (Chetan) at the beginning of the book; it’s really baffling that Audible Studios allowed this to be released. If you’re going to spend money on this, you’d rather just buy the physical book and read it. If you’re going to spend a credit on it, it may be worth a shot if you can get past the narrator’s voice, because the story itself is great and deserves a read/listen.
