  Give Me "RED" - Operation Sindoor   While a debate goes on the skin color and the side effects of lightening crèmes, no makeup looks etc. but at the same point there is no denial that we love to wear color, be it on our face, hair or body. 16   shringars   have been known since time  immemorial and so make up has always been an essential part of human existence, be it the tribal paintings with feather head gears or a high fashion look on a ramp. Recently the importance of vermilion powder - termed as "Sindoor" was the nomenclature of the army operation conducted in retaliation to the terrorist attacks in Kashmir where caste was primary specification of those targeted.  This itself indicates that makeup and grooming have been an essential element of our culture and tradition since time immemorial. The loud red streak was adorned by Aishwarya Rai at the Cannes as representation of both fashion and fury, Peace and power. The Queen arrived clad in Red ...

  Listed below some hot topics of a BIPOLAR Society and viewpoints from a Human perspective... Divorce, Dignity, and the Delusion of a Modern Society As India grapples with the COVID-19 crisis, another silent tragedy plays out. The death toll has left countless children orphaned. Child rights organizations are rushing to arrange legal adoptions, trying to prevent the horrific rise of trafficking. While society mourns these children and scrambles to act, we must pause and reflect: What does it mean to be human in a society that shuns humanity at its core? What is human capital when our values are so bankrupt? When the Gates Opened: Bill & Melinda's Divorce Bill and Melinda Gates' divorce was called “the biggest split since Ram and Sita.” A humorous take, but it reveals a lot about our cultural psyche. In ancient times, legal divorce didn’t even exist—yet we romanticize painful separations as divine sacrifice. Today, though we have the legal tools, we lack the emotion...

  Isn’t that headline shocking, sounds bizarre and runs down your nerves!! Think differently, out of the box in real and true sense! Now the actual question emerges...  Are we Qualified? Have we heard the term female foeticide in animals, from where has this concept been seeded in and emerged? Probably the seed lies in ownership... Ownership of a girl child till her life!! From the day, this tradition of parting away from girls after marriage has emerged; lands into a series of cascading effects. One primarily being, the another house she lands into is mostly a frictional mode of relationships. The girl is always seen as a foreign body amidst the environment, the major shift of a foreign body attracts a lot of insecurities, adjustment of perspectives, thought processes, adaptation etc. the process is so complex that it lasts for years, passing on generations of the baggage of mom-in-laws; or if not, the modern day has a solution called  divorce . Let us begin with the see...

Lets change the narrative.. the perspective and positioning !! Well, this is one statement which after a certain age applies to women.. pls note the word "AGE"!! This was mentioned in a book reading session by Sharbari Zohra Ahmed, in her Debut Novel,   "Dust under her feet!" The  Quantico  scriptwriter moves from an International thriller, expressing a high voltage drama series for Hollywood and now back into the 1940s, where her story revolves around Yasmine Khan, the protagonist. Sharbari expresses that it was probably Yasmine Khan, the focal point chose her, cause while writing the fiction,  she could clearly go back into times and see the visuals of the yesteryears when World War II had set in.. There is a lot which Sharbari has contributed into this novel, above her body mind and soul.. fifteen years have gone into crafting the epic! What beyond? The Author has actually gone to the libraries of Kolkata, dug out their archival section, newspapers, magazines, hu...

 June 21st 2020, a day of celestial and geographical significance when the rays of sun fall directly on the Tropic of Cancer in northern hemisphere exposing the top half of earth to maximum sunlight. Today we are witnessing annular solar Eclipse which is a rare astronomical phenomenon. The moon doesn't cover sun completely but we can see a ring of fire. The eclipse begins at IST 9.15 am and ends at IST 3.04 PM therefore our planet will recieve atleast 3 hours less of sunlight, hence logically it won't be the longest day, technically though yes it is.. The celestial bodies have many significant stories attached with them, about interdependence and power play. The planet is dependent both on Sun and Moon equally for survival. The mighty sun might be the source of light but the moon too pulls the vast oceans setting up tides and both equally support fertility and life! Currently we are surrounded with various challenges related to power play.. on one side a small microscopic spher...

  Representative  image for Corona with fixers (made by a little girl) Since past many decades we were using this term for lot of promotional stuff  used for sports,  matches, award functions, roles, political seats, and the list is endless.. 2020 has seen a new shift, a new turn in #humanity amidst the #corona fear and #lockdown2020 ; it seems this virus is doing the repair work which was long due for our planet to breathe. Human greed had shamelessly crossed every possible limit... selfish purpose and they could exploit or use anything which comes in their path in order to achieve success. But in the BLIND rat race we forgot #nature the biggest force, that force which is fluid and we are just a part of that fluid motion.. we started taking our environment for granted, our waterbodies, atmosphere, land etc. And we could eat anything!! Crazy razing of green patches and turning them into concrete, even if we don't need space but the greed of expansion pushed us reckle...
