How To Get The Most Out Of Movies
2009-04-18 15:30:00
We all enjoy movies, don't we? They lighten our mood as well as entertain us.Indians have a strong relationship with movies. Some of us are so crazy about films that we can consume several movies at a time!But I have observed, people visit cinema halls for the sole purpose of entertainment. Well, this is not enough. I believe if you don't learn something from a particular movie, then even watching that movie is mere futility. All movies have something or the other to get inspired and motivated from. But we can't perceive it without removing the cloak of entertainment.Have a mindset of eager curiosity and constant learning. This will help you throughout your life...and what better way to test it by watching movies? In fact, since movies are a reflection of the society we live in, they teach...

The Era Of Young Politicians
2009-04-07 00:43:00
Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam once said,” If India is to become developed by 2020, it will do so only by riding on the shoulders of the young”. The youth are the future of India. They can divide India or place India at a position which even USA may envy.India is incomplete without politics. But at the moment, politics is the one surrounded by vitriolic criticism. No wonder most of the Indians believe that politics is a game for the astute, by the astute and of the astute. We perceive politicians by their dwellings in ‘Lazy Leisures’ and fallacious promises. I think politicians descend on Earth only for greed, money and power. They turn away from social dilemmas with their most cliché – Some problems have no solutions. I strongly feel that whenever there’s no solution to a problem, th...
