My way from corporate to role as home maker and now college life!!!

-
As a child, I used to play games with my siblings and friends and used to be school teacher for them. Draping a shawl borrowed from my mother's wardrobe, Closing the room, I used to grab my mother's economics book and read it. I was just 7 years old then.  I used stand in front of my little brother or sometimes no one , I used to hold a pencil and teach an empty room - the subject of economics. At that time, I never had any ambitions. It was just 'teacher - teacher' game.  As I started growing up, my friends started showing keen interest in science stream as there  was IT boom in that period. My relatives all around were encouraging their children to take up either the field of medical or engineering. As this trend continued, so did the emergence of coaching classes in various forms. But I had different idea. My parents never coerced me in taking a particular specialization. They completely left it to me and this was which I am very much thankful to them. After compl...

Harishchandrachi Factory - A tribute to Late Shri Dhundiraj Govinda Phalke

-

Harishchandrachi Factory – why we should not forget this great man.

Hey Everybody,

Like I had stated that I would be giving my perspective on movies. So, let me start with a Marathi movie. Marathi is one of the several languages spoken in India. And yes friends!!! Movies are made in various languages in India. I want to introduce all of you to all movies which are made in various languages not just in India but throughout the world. I find this quite extraordinary as I am not a writer or a movie critic or any profession related to movies. Hmmmm…. Let me put it this way – I am a movie buff. I inherit those genes from my dear mother who also is a cinema lover.

I thought it would be best to start with a man who created films for the first time in India –  Late Mr. Dhundiraj Govinda Phalke also known as Dadasaheb Phalke. He is also known as the Father of Indian Cinema. For this, I picked Harshchandrachi Factroy, a 2009 movie made on the struggles of how Mr. Phalke created films. Now why pick a movie which is 12 years old??? In today’s world of Netflix and Amazon, I was searching for a movie which was quite different, and I came across this movie  on Netflix, whose title seemed quite unique. I saw the description of the film and thought why not give it a try as there is the option of subtitles. 

The film takes us back to the time of Mr. Phalke and how this one man struggled to make a movie in those times as called in the movie -  ‘moving pictures.’ I will not reveal the story of the film or give a review, but I would put forward my thoughts about the movie as my only goal is to inform people that a vast world of cinema prevails wherein such beautiful movies exist. People call him crazy; his friends even take him to the mental hospital. There is a scene in the movie wherein neighbors and friends come to his house to mourn the loss of the sale of a cupboard which was hilarious. There is not a single instance throughout the movie where we you will feel bored. The film is effortlessly engaging with a pinch of comedy and there is not a single moment where you will find yourself crying. The performance by the lead actor Mr. Nandu Madhav who plays the role of Mr. Phalke is good. He has done full justice to the great man.

A simple movie about an extraordinary personality who did not succumb to the pressures of the world around him. It shows the amazing willpower of Mr. Phalke who insisted on making movies even though he loses his eyesight partially (he regains it through treatment) as shown in the movie. 

If life is a straight line a person walks through smoothly but when there are obstacles placed ahead ambitious, dedicated, and motivated individuals convert the obstacles into opportunities and revolutionize the world. This is the message that the movie conveys. I would recommend people to watch the movie but at the end it is your choice.

I hope you all enjoyed reading it. Keep watching for my next post. Follow me on Koo app and facebook.

Until then byeeeeeeeee friends.

Love You All,

Namitha

What is the reason that BJP couldn't touch the magic number of 272?

-
The elections concluded with much grandeur and the results were awaited with baited breath by all. The toppers looked upon it as achieving All India Rank with record numbers while others saw it as  an opportunity to gain lost ground. It was a very well fought election from the both sides. The voters were offered different kinds of promises. Five years ago it was the slogan of 'Ayega toh Modi hi' which everyone knew that it was the writing on the wall any which ways. But this time around the BJP went a little overboard with its slogan ' Abki baar 400 Paar'. This slogan echoed the confidence of the party but somewhere it bought some kind of apprehension among the voters which the opposition was trying to instill.  The media diverted its attention towards the numbers but the opposition saw this as an opportunity to create anxiety among the voters that this kind of power will put democracy in danger. The carrying of the constitution everywhere and putting it in display and ...

How to be different or unique from others

  How to be different from others 1. Make decisions on your own and stick to them. Listen to the discussions going on around you. Be a good listener but go ahead with what you feel is right and make your own decision. Do not depend on others for the choices you make and be proud and hold yourself responsible for whatever choices you make. 2. Be honest to yourself. Never lie to yourself. Do not try to emulate others. Just be yourself and be proud of who you are. One should be honest not just to others but also to oneself as you yourself are answerable to your conscious  at the end of the day. 3. Accept your flaws. Not everyone is perfect. We are all humans, not superhumans or God. We must admit to ourselves the flaws that we have and try to work on improving ourselves. Don't try to act as a perfect person as it leads to being dishonest and displaying your artificial self out there in the society and to yourself. 4. Respect Yourself. Learn to adore and respect yourself. God has ...

Easy Yoga Poses After Pregnancy for New Mothers

    "A Mother's arms are more comforting than anyone else's". - Princess Diana This post is for not only for all the new mothers but also for all the moms who juggle with work, children and personal space for themselves.  Being a mother is a boon which God has bestowed on us. Carrying a life inside our bodies and then giving birth to that beautiful, little life is indeed a blessing. I can say all this from the wonderful experience of being a mother.  Our bodies transform, undergo changes after being a mother. It takes us a few months to get into the normal hustle - bustle of our life. We happily embrace sleepless nights, heaps of laundry, and brains being attentive to just one small little creation - 'our baby'. But, the reward is precious -   million dollar smile, warm snuggles, love and warmth from the little ones. Finding time from the daily routine gets tougher as each day passes through. The 'Me Time' vanishes in thin air. Our bodies require a lot...
