World Bicycle Day: Cycling is more than a primary mobility option in India

In India, cycling transcends being merely a primary mode of transportation. It plays a crucial role in fostering economic growth, facilitating the swift delivery of essential goods and medicines, and connecting with communities in need. The profound bond between bicycles and the people of India traces its roots back to November 21, 1963. It was on this historic day that India accomplished the remarkable feat of launching the subcontinent's inaugural sounding rocket. This achievement was made possible by the resourcefulness and resilience of the Indian people, who transported rocket parts and payloads from one location to another using bicycles. The National Family Health Survey (NFHS) conducted in 1998-99 revealed that approximately 47.8 percent of the population in India owned bicyc...

Movie Review: Zara Hatke Zara Bachke – A Disappointing Blend of Romance and Comedy

Director: Laxman Utekar Writers: Laxman Utekar, Maitrey Bajpai, Ramiz Ilham Khan Cast: Vicky Kaushal, Sara Ali Khan, Inaamulhaq, Sharib Hashmi, Neeraj Sood, Rakesh Bedi The movie Zara Hatke Zara Bachke fails to deliver on its promises of providing a delightful blend of romance and comedy. Despite its catchy title, the film falls flat in both aspects, leaving the audience disappointed. After enduring 132 minutes of Zara Hatke Zara Bachke, it remains unclear why the film bears such a title. There is nothing unique or unconventional about it, so let's address that upfront. The title is derived from the timeless Mohammed Rafi-Geeta Dutt song "Yeh hi Bombay meri jaan," linking the film to the idea of Mumbai's perpetual housing crisis, albeit indirectly. However, Zara Hatke Zara Bachk...

Afghanistan emerged victorious in the 1st ODI against Sri Lanka, clinching the win by six wickets.

Afghanistan's innings had a slow start, with Rahmanullah Gurbaz falling prey to his aggressive approach, losing his wicket. However, Afghanistan quickly gained momentum and dominated the game thereafter. Ibrahim Zadran and Rahmat Shah formed a strong partnership, specifically targeting debutant Matheesha Pathirana. They scored 17 runs in his second over and continued to excel throughout the match. Zadran showcased his aggressive batting, accumulating runs rapidly, while Shah provided steady support from the opposite end. Together, they forged a remarkable 146-run partnership. Unfortunately, Zadran narrowly missed out on a well-deserved century, falling just two runs short. Shah, on the other hand, achieved his half-century milestone. Eventually, both Shah and skipper Hashmatullah Shahidi d...

Day 7: Change your life

I missed my class again today, but I’m hoping to see better days. I did my meditation then. Now, the first chapter of,’JANE EYRE’: Jane takes us through the abuse she endured as a child. She was abused by her Aunt’s son. Beth seemed like the good one, but one’s gotta do her job. They take Jane to a separate room after Jane talks back to that Aunt’s son. Today was such a tedious day at the gym. I burned, like, more than 350 calories. It won’t be a big deal for you but it is one for me. My trainer was mad at me for taking up so much time, but in my defense, I’d rather take my time than break a few bones or sprain my muscles; I’m a human(Christina Perri’s note) after all. It was a near-death experience. That’s exaggerating, but still. I guess I could slightly feel what famine and drought w...
