Touching Distance: The Great Indian Mba Dream

A book about ambition, belief and irony, Touching Distance: The Great Indian MBA Dream paints life on the canvas of tier-1 MBAs in India. Seen through the eyes of a witty, idealistic and ultimately fatalistic, south Indian protagonist, the story evokes humour and captures familiar dilemmas. Set in one of India's finest business schools, the book is about Shiva's journey. He becomes frustrated with the idea of wasting his potential at his cloistered software programming job and chooses to believe, like millions of other Indians, in the ubiquitous and superbly marketed Indian MBA dream.
