This is a climax of the novel. Deus Ex Machina means " God From

for audience.
Deus Ex Machina is used in this novel by Bhagat when all
characters met an accident and no any source are there to save
their lives. At that time God's call save them with many messages
for life. After that they all restart their lives from God's advice of
living life happily. They all tried a lot to solve their problems from
their lives. So that happy ending is here from God.
14. In God's episode, Bhagat mentions that fear lies itself in
sentiment of war. The country which is associated with war has
a kind of fear and it loses something. Bhagat's technique to
assemble war and fear together shows that wherever the feeling
of war lies is not happy place but there can be beyond
something to work silently to prevent war. This helps all six
characters to take revenge to Bakshi. People are indulged in
war, fighting and when one is having abomination for
someone, he can be aroused easily. The way god gives
philosophical portrayal of himself is best narration of god by
Chetan Bhagat.
