School – A temple of knowledge? I wrote this on my blog on the 1st of July and to my horror, i am here writing again on this topic with my heart in terror. Where are our children safe? I am ashamed to know that I am a part of a country that swears freedom from 73 years. However here; where children are abused and not only raped but murdered as well in the temples of knowledge. And the victims are only worth a few candles? My heart feels a terrible ache when I see cases that happen on a…
It may surprise you but the fact is what it is. We have so many expectations from our children, that we forget how much, we ourselves pressure them. We start young, we order them away as soon as eighteen months and admit them into play schools. Wanting them to talk before they learn to babble. Wanting them to be trained in every way, when they barely know to differentiate from fire and ice. We speak to them in English so that we can show them off, in front of our friends and family. We do everything in our power to…
Year 2017 has been all about Singapore! Two visits back to back within six months of time. Won’t say I was not looking forward to it! I have seen Singapore before in the midst of the year two thousands. However the visits this year were more relaxing and getting to know about this amazing red dot country that they called. Singapore is supposed to be a really small country but let me tell you there is nothing small about it! The people and the variations and everything you name is larger than life. The very well planned country is a…

We all love our hair! And it is one of the most important assets of a woman I believe. I have always had long hair and struggled really hard to maintain. But whenever i get a haircut I never feel as pleased as i feel today! Which is why I am giving you an insight! I happened to step upon Panache Salon on instagram! Always seeing pictures and knowing that it was real close to my place at Versova. Until I realized it was literally hop skip jump for my little boyfriends preschool. I messaged the saloon on instagram itself!…
I was invited to the Four Seasons hotel in Worli by @mybabychakra for the launch of Aveeno Baby in India. And I consider myself lucky to be a part of this magnetic brand. It’s an honor to be a part of Aveeno Baby that is such a well known brand in the US and the UK. I was presented with a sweetener that included a Aveeno Baby Daily Moisturising Lotion and the Aveeno Baby Soothing Relief Creamy Wash. Without wasting a moment I used the Aveeno Baby Soothing Relief Creamy Wash at night before bedtime. It’s specially formulated with Active…
There’s a difference between reviewing a movie and having your opinion about it. Sadly people are too opinionated in this fast forward age. And even when you are knowledgeable there is a difference of that with being an over smart a** Jagga Jasoos is a old wine in a new bottle. It’s a concept that is blended with broadway to musicals to grandfathers telling you stories. Every movie doesn’t have to be about action, thriller or romance. Hence, this is a new version of the old but smart bong culture. This is a ” I like what I see and…
Dimple Ganguly – Her smile can light up the room not in words but in reality! I met her almost ten years ago. Her pure soul was just as bright as it is now as she plays monster with my son. He loves her from the minute he laid his eyes on her. And I can’t deny the fact that I feel so blessed to be sitting opposite her and interviewing her very inspirational life! Dimple was born in a family of five daughters. She is the fifth daughter! The one her parents desperately thought then to turn out as…
A good movie needs a good script! A good script needs a good director! And when a director lucks himself in getting an actor like Sridevi to play his protagonist a movie like MOM is made! Life now is harder than it used to be a decade ago! Everything is now and just now! Not even a second late! Rejection is never easy. And kids these days are going on to another level if you deny them something they want! MOM reminds me about Drishyam in a few times, but being on a similar text. Both movies do point out…
I was not sure if I was keen on seeing the movie only because the trailers hadn’t stuck a chord with me. And also that my husband being a Salman Khan hard core fan, wasn’t much happy either. It was just something that was missing, in exciting what a Salman movie does. Also for you to know my family is equally divided into Salman and Shahrukh fans, Aamir even! I on the other hand am about performance and script worth. Boring I know but I like to bring something back when i watch a movie or read a book. Director-…
