Kareena Kapoor Khan: “I’m Pregnant!” Sadhguru: "Yoga does not belong to India!"

Kareena Kapoor Khan: “I’m Pregnant!” Sadhguru: “Yoga does not belong to India!”

“I had gone to consult a doctor about my growing beer belly, but speculations TELL ME that I’m pregnant.”

If this is what Kareena actually said in a comment to the media; you will find the headlines on the paper next day flashing out; Kareena Kapoor confesses to the media, “….I’m pregnant”

Many celebrities and bigwigs have been shot in their heart with these exaggerated headlines altered to suit…

An Open Letter to the Big Papers (TOI / HT)

My next one is addressing a concern about the IPL 2016.

The IPL marked its grand opening few evenings, with some of the biggest names of the Entertainment Industry dancing and singing their time away for the audience to enjoy.

Just about 4 days ago, on the 7th of April, 2016, the Bombay High Court passed a judgement on shifting IPL from Maharashtra to some other state. (Refer shift, not BAN)

And to quote the judgement,

People don’t get water in…

What's on Your Mind? 

What’s on Your Mind? 

The train runs whoosh past the few millions covering different station of Mumbai. There’s that man, trying to get his entire family in at Dadar, while a dark poor slum boy finds his way to hang on to the luggage area, while at Kurla. By the time it’s Ghatkopar, the Rush has occupied the entire standing area of the first class ladies compartment. Today is a Saturday, and nothing seems to slow down,…

Instagram just granted you your wish! 

It’s been sometime that there’s been news about a new update by Instagram for all those users who had two or more accounts on the social photo-sharing app. I had read quite a few blogs mentioning about the update and How-to-Update, giving in a lot of information about this new crazy thing! I went up to the extent of reading nearly 7 blogs until I realists that this was only limited to Android…

Being Indian?

 Being Christian, Jew, Zoroastrian, Hindu, South Indian, North East India, Bihari. But not Being Indian.

What greatness of one individual cannot overcome, is the faux secularism of our country. India always boasts about the variety it has to offer, from A to Z and back from Z to A!

The recent M M Basheer incident is an example of what I’m referring. Basically, this literary scholar wrote certain…

Sensationalism.

Sensational news was redefined when the Indrani Mukherjea case stole the limelight. Oh it’s still very much stealing all the shine of the paparazzi! After all, a woman of her accord who has caused turbulence to lives of not one or two but three men, that too high profile independent and well to do MEN! Males believe highly, of women not being harmless in their own way, and cannot cross lines but…

I know, it's been long since I posted. But well, yesterday was Indian Independence Day and it's the Sixty Ninth Year since India gained Freedom from the monarchical colonial rule of the Whites. But the struggle just began then. For status of equality, for rights and freedom of being a national in this country, for decreasing the disparity between classes, to fight against communalism while people brag about secularism. The fights are many, and we are constantly striving to live through all of it past the decades. There will come another Independence Day, in the truest form, when I can wake up to salute the nation each day for its deeds rather than remembering the works of some great souls on one day | 15th August, 2015| #l4l #likeforlike #poetsofinstagram #writersofInstagram #IGpoets #Poetry #quotes #igwriter #author #poet #wordporn #bibliophile #wordgasm #struggle #freedom #original #communityofpoets #instapoet #lovequotes #writing #photooftheday #QOTD #POTD #quotes #follow #communityofwriters #lifestories #independenceday (at HT Archives.)

Coimbatore strongly reminds me of Kerala. Those dusty stoned roads, the huge coconut palms overlooking bungalows fancy my eyes than the normal concrete jungles, I see each day. How I wish to enter these wooden openings rather than the iron solid gates to my building. Oh, how I miss my native, for the essence it carries and the fragrance of sweet soil. #GodsOwnCountry #MastersOwnCountry #Kerala #TamilNadu #Natives (at Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu)

Just one moment of Pride, and another for sacrifice. In a day you constitute what being an Indian feels. Carry this each day, you'll know what our soldiers feel! #respect #BeingIndian #tinytales #saluteIndiansoldiers | Our safety is in their hands, what about about theirs? Happy Independence Day.

India loses one of its assets! At the age of 83, he's inspired every Indian and I'm one amongst the few million! There was a time in Grade 9 when I would read out one of his India speeches loud and clear to anyone I knew could be interested. His Wings of Fire has motivated the youth in a manner, no one his age could do! The 11th President, who has made major difference than the then Prime Minister. This man, was someone that any Indian could look up to, irrespective of which age group they belonged to! This Missile Man of India, will surely be missed by the nation. The absence of this scientist, an Ex-President, a writer of amazing calibre and one of the most humble beings will be felt strongly! Rest in peace. #RIP #president #death #abdulkalam #Loss #india #nation #country #nomore #passedawaytoday #grief #misery #sorrow #scientist #misshim #teacher #writer #igers #igdaily (at Paradise.)
