Hey all; when every year the social media flourishes with the celebration of Mother’s Day, why not the calendar gets marked for the occasion vibes to continue for the Father’s Day to be at its best. Father - a part of our life whose tedious contribution in carving out perfection in his children is ineffable. The master figure whose shoulders lift the struggles for the family, the hands imprint scars to earn bread & butter and the feet burns down in the approach of accomplishing the requirements. But deep down, a thin film prevents the daily chores performed by HIM to go unnoticed at times. HE is a superhero whose inner shell envelope all the emotions and portrays a strict, tough and disciplinarian personality. As mother inculcates the sense of care, love and affection; Father moulds his children to be diligent, sedulous and resistant to external abrasive society. Although a day is inadequate to acknowledge his warmth & oblation, still we take this opportunity to bow in re

Our splendid celebration in welcoming the New Year (2020) was garnished with vibrant hopes and desires but maybe it went rightly into the saying- “ Man proposes, God disposes ”.

The blood clash has begun; snatching the precious lives of our forefront brave soldiers but enough is enough!!! Chinese betrayal actions have violated 1993, 1996 and 2013 border

INDIA- the holy land that shares the strong thread of brotherhood and integrity despite the variance in culture, ethics and customs have been victim of certain untoward incidents and mishaps. The pages of history is painted with memories and oblation of our fellow countrymen who selflessly succumbed to the cause of the nation. One more day for remembrance of the sacrifices and a pledge to preserve the peace by uniting against all odds- Anti Terrorism Day, 21 st May. The term Terrorism within itself is complex, disputed, and despicable with an inner layer of voracious interests and sense of misanthropy. In the present era, the ventures (either homegrown or by foreign forces) revolving around such shabby and malicious school of thought have shown an ascending graph thereby snatching human lives and hindering comprehensive growth of the society.  The criticism and speculation is ongoing yet and somewhere in-depth, the roots lie on ignorance, poverty and unemployment that

“MOM” the word itself is a collection of dynamic energy, benevolent inside and valiant outside to the rough world. SHE is the purest form of love at first sight and those are the only hands that never parts away. Words are too scarce and inner warmth is gigantic to describe in black & white. So, I do feel just one day is insufficient to dedicate; rather each and every breath is to HER!! The utmost she needs is care and closeness in her grey stage of life.     Watching a year old bollywood master work “MOM” casting Sri Devi was a special throw for the Mother's Day... The story aptly portrayed the perfect blending of selfless and vibrant emotions of a mother garnished with the strength of shield in times of need to restraint any whirlwind on her children.

We are shackled from outdoor activities and life stands in topsy-turvy context. But, the period of social distancing and self-quarantine blessed us with many positive vibes even in these hard times.

The outbreak of Coronavirus as a pandemic has engulfed the whole world with the sense of fear and sorrow.    The topsy-turvy situation has led to the lock down of cities, shut down of public amenities and halt of transport infrastructures thereby imposing immense threat to the livelihood and economy on a global scale. Since years, we the most brilliant creatures were so aligned to the materialistic development that we neglected the basic attitudes to lead a healthy lifestyle in harmony with nature. As a consequence, the human race is in a panic-stricken situation but leaving no stone unturned to combat the crisis. The other side of the coin reveals an entirely different picture!! The restrictions on industrial activities, transportation and self-isolations have turned out to be boon in disguise for Mother Nature.
