Food makes Life easy!

For the love of food is supreme of all - once said a wise man! The love of food is as pure as holy water in India. This feeling cannot be described best by anyone but the food lover. This has been a scientifically proven fact, the people who eat more have more chances of staying happy and content in their lives. And it has been proven in most of the cases. You remember how your smile broadens with just a glance of your platter coming your way in a restaurant! How the smell of your favorite food makes you giggle through and through! These are just a few examples to talk about. Foodies have their own little world where even the mention of the food makes them forget their worries. They are happy with their plate of fries or jar of chocolate shake or box of Pizza! If we specifically talk about the population who likes to eat Pizza, you would fall short of the numbers. Pizza lovers are spread all over the world who eat, think and dream Pizza throughout their life. And, it is justifi...

Book Review - Stepping Stones:Taking Towards The Goal

Title - Stepping Stones:Taking Towards The Goal Author - Lubhna Dongre Genre - Self Help Publisher - Notionpress ISBN - 978-1-948473-35-4 I do not know where to begin with in the first place to write a review about this book. Despite the fact that this book has been written by a 14 year old girl, the book exhibits sheer brilliance when it comes to approaching the life - be it with education or otherwise. What did I like the most in this book? There are many in fact. I liked the way the book was written. The flow was so good that in spite of reading the life of a small girl, you feel like getting information which is so rich that can guide you through. Please note that the author is not trying to portray herself as a guru or something but being a motivational speaker herself at this young age, the book clearly reflects her matured mindset. Of course, you cannot expect a person who is just 14 to write like a 40+ but the writings almost matches that age group ...

Homes for the New Age Customer

The times, they are a changing and changing for good. Gone are the days when you would move into your new home which, relatively was empty except for a few tubelights and switches. The new breed of home owners is looking for a change in house buying patterns and this is where Godrej 24 stands out. What is the suitable home for me? It is said that home is where the heart is but this notion was forgotten about, after the advent of the 21 st century quicker than you could say home. No longer are people looking for a house they can turn into their home but a property they can look at and feel like they are already home. Godrej perfectly captures that feeling and who better to resonate with that feeling but you, the buyer. Current market scenario Even though customized homes are all the rage now, it is still relatively difficult to find a home that will suit all your needs in the present Indian real estate market. Very few developers out there are building tailor-made ho...

Launch Event and Book Review - Final Illumination

It was a pleasant evening on 9th Feb 2018 when I was invited for the book launch of "Final Illumination" by Farrah Begum. The event took place in Writer's Cafe in Royapuram from 6-7:30PM. The venue was a full house by the time event had begun. Author had come with her family. Few of her friends had also turned up to grace the occasion. The highlight of the event was the presence of Chief Guest who was none other than Neerja Malik . Author was very much particular in getting her as the Chief Guest and she had eventually succeeded. There were few reasons behind it. The main reason however is that the characters which portrayed similarities between Neerja Malik and Zubeida, who is the protagonist of this story who have fought bravely to come up in their lives. Neerja Malik was at her usual best. She was pretty down to earth and was at her wit's end pulling other's legs, though not intentionally. She had broken the ice with her wits and made the event livel...

Feel Fresh with Amazon Original

Most of us have watched television during our childhood. Fortunately or unfortunately, we have been introduced to the "Mega Serials" which has kept us tied for years even though those defied logic.  Even in case of a short serial, we always hoped to get to know the climax sooner or later though we were at mercy of the director. The eagerness to know the end result of any soap is attributed to the below mentioned factors: 1. We may not be available all the time at home. 2. Recurring ads in between the serial plays a spoilsport. 3. Seeing the same face over and over again and when the actor is not performing well, there are all the more reasons to hate it. To get rid of the above-mentioned woes, we either stop watching them or divert our attention towards movies. Those were the things of the past. There will always be a period of renaissance. That has come to the Indian televison in the form of Amazon Original . Why Amazon Original? There are few reason...

Book Review - Polygon Of Asymmetry

Title - Polygon Of Asymmetry Author - Dr Vyankatesh Katkar Genre - Fiction Publisher - Author Paradise ISBN - 8944571548368 I have been reviewing Dr Vyankatesh Katkar's book for a while now. The first two books I reviewed differed from one another which you would have read yourselves by now. This book "Polygon Of Asymmetry" is a different book altogether. In this novel, author has talked in great detail about the life of an orphaned girl as to how much difficulties and humiliation she has to suffer in order to come up in her life. The words that were used and the way events were narrated would make you feel pity and even cry for the protagonist Uma. Uma did not know as to who her father was. All she knew was her mother who passes away due to physical ailments when she was still a young girl leaving the world to take exercise its freedom by clipping her own freedom. The character portrays the real state of affairs which is happening even in the present d...
