The movie's casting was bad!

While I agree with all the novel was mind-blowing, Ms. Nair might not have been able to do adequate justice to the story with her mindless casting.
Though as a NRI, I'm proud of Kal Penn's achievements in Hollywood, I honestly feel that he wasn't the right person for the reprisal of Gogol's role. He does not have the personality or the voice of the person (character) I have in my mind after reading the book! Alas, Ms. Nair let her teenage son influence her decision making on his casting in this movie.
