Moments after he announced his new book, his website crashed. Such was the curiosity around the title of his new book.
Bhagat was quick to even tweet about the crashed site and then released a video teaser of his new novel for the readers.

Ever since then, Twitter has been flooded with jokes revolving around the possible meanings of `Half Girlfriend`. Some of them can really tickle your funny bone.
The author has certainly attracted the wrath of the tweeples this time.
