    Given below is a book review in jumbled form.
    Arrange P, Q, R, S, between A and B, to give its correct sequence.
    A: On Facebook, the publishers of the book, 'The Photographer' are predicting it to be the delicious summer read bound to inspire a romantic Hindi film.
    P: Twenty-something Pune-based Mimi Datta manages an upgrade on a long flight and finds herself seated next to a Rajib Vhora, he of piercing black eyes and a Rolex-adorned wrist. His smouldering good looks and fine manners bewitch her immediately. By a very lucky coincidence, Mimi happens to be the photographer at the wedding of Vhora's sister. Sparks fly, inevitably, as we know they should. Every cliche idea of romance that has found its way into the Bollywood of old, leaps off the pages here.
    Q: In reality, the book seems like it's been copied from one of Karan Johar's overly frothy family dramas in which the happy Hindu family is unabashedly celebrated. There is an inebriated nani, a handsome, brooding tycoon and a good looking journalist who's begun to moonlight as an event photographer to supplement her meagre income.
    R: Just like Indian filmmakers of yesteryears preferred to portray young love which was naively disconnected from complications, author Heena Bakshi has concentrated on a well-treaded surface of superficial emotion.
    S:  The book is misleading from the start. The first few pages lead us to believe that we'd gain a little insight into the surreal world of temporary make-belief of an Indian wedding. What we get instead, is a gushy and banal ac- count of an earnest young girl trying to find Mr Right.
    B: It's just that romantic comedy as a genre has been flogged tirelessly on screen for so long, that you simply can't take exactly the same thing in print if you've been around long enough.

    A)  PQRS

    B)  QSPR

    C)  PSRQ

    D)  SRPQ
