About this listen

Audible presents The Opposite of Love, an Audible Original. Dheeman, a travel influencer, lives an enviable life full of paid-for travel and every luxury one can dream about. Amal, on the other hand, has just about scraped enough money for her first international flight. When the two of them meet on a long-haul flight to the US, they are immediately drawn to each other despite their difference. Over the air miles they rack up, secrets start to stumble out. It turns out their meeting wasn't accidental but orchestrated. Their pasts are intertwined, and while one's looking for redemption, the other's looking for revenge. Falling in love doesn't figure on their list, but when has it ever?

I wasn’t a fan of audiobooks just until now, when I saw the name Durjoy Datta I knew I just had to listen to ‘The Opposite of Love’. I had an impression that it would be this boring boy meets girl-falls in love-heartbreak kinda love-story, but as the story untwined itself, I knew the author had a done a miraculous job. I love Dheeman, I love Amal, I love how they both put their personal traumas upfront and emerged victorious nevertheless. The point of a relationship is when 2 people grow together, and this story re-established my faith in that. A must read for any romance enthusiast!

Raw, emotional, beautiful.

To be honest, I don't know why Dhiman felt as if Durjoy wanted to spit out his own influencer side story.
That story telling kept me held throughout and I laughed a lot when he even described that society wale Uncles... That was hilarious 😂...
Kudos to You sir... every time I learn something new from You.

Engaging and Light hearted❣️

I adored how the narrative could be related to even the smallest details of life, which kept me interested the entire time. I was listening to this story while taking a 24-hour train ride to Mumbai, which was an entirely other experience. All of the emotions you stated struck a chord with me and captured my attention. Whether it was sense of loss, a different perspective about an influencer, calming our anxious thoughts, comparing God relation to our grandparents, etc. Every circumstance you discussed was so honest, I could sense the drama.
One flaw I saw was that occasionally, when the narrative abruptly switches to dialogue, there is a mismatch/disconnect that could be caused by the voice tone not being appropriate for the situation and at times I felt the background noise used to describe the location/situation is upsetting and unnecessary.
Lastly, thank you for making my travel time so engaging and beautiful!

Loved the essence of life's tiniest subtleties!

It's my first audible and I loved it, I loved the storyline and the narrators are really doing great job. At some points i even related myself to the girl. Really loved it. But now i need one more book after this one and then one more and then many more.
Please bring more💜

this has been my first audiobook experience and to say how hard it hit me let me share something. A couple of days after I finished hearing this I had a flight to Delhi and every time there was even a slight turbulence I got reminded of Dhimaan and Ramit plight ..more than the plot the more captivating was how the characters unfurled and how their feelings crept into the reader's mind... Amal's unprecedented guilt of forcing Ramit to take that ominous flight collaborated with Dhimaan's guilt of survival... somewhere I feel that bridged the feelings which ultimately bound them in a bond of completion... and this bond was not rushed after their sudden physical intimacy... rather they took time and a friendship clicked in the abyss of lost relationship and chaotic endeavours ❤️❤️❤️

A true enthralling experience

Durjoy and his stories are always great, with every passing one I fall in more love. The way the story began and ended kept me glued. I loved the Zara reference, the society uncle reference and how the three people and their stories collided and the different shades of grief depicted, I hope this will make people little less judgey and treat other with kindness. Liked Dheeman's character more and the realisation he had at the end was on point. Couldn't have had a better ending. Thanks for this Durjoy❤️ Worth the time and attention given...first one that I finished in a single sitting eva. Hopefully many more to go!

I mean like, why is this not a paperback?

I loved the audio book, I have been reading durjoy dutta’s books since last 10 years now. I loved his writing then and I love it now.
Coming to this audio book.. it was a smooth journey of grief and love. How two grieving people find love and comfort within each other. The way the characters are intertwined is the beauty of the story, the story becomes predictable for me midway but i still want to keep listening and that’s the beauty of the story. It’s so simple, comforting and makes you happy at the end.

A sweet lovestory with a predictable yet interesting climax

An utterly delightful audiobook about Dheeman and Amal and how they try to heal from their intertwined past. The characters are brought to life by the author so beautifully that the entire story becomes so addictive and captive. I just loved it and finished the entire audiobook in one go. :)

It's a must listen audio book <3
