Nepotism and Bollywood - A Real time love story

-
Nepotism can be phrased as the act of using power and influence unethically to get the dear ones a good work or job.Remember the good old days when the teachers would send the same group of students to particular competitions? The times when however hard you try to impress your heads in various clubs, the board appointments were given to their best friends? We used to call it favouritism and be upset over it for a day or so, but rather did we know it was happening big time in our country. The Bollywood industry has stepped up to the next level in the past few years. The level of craze for Bollywood movies across the globe is insane. But since the late nineties, there have been several claims that only the star kids of the industry are being promoted, and fair chance is not given to all those who deserve. Such claims have crippled the industry to a fair extent. The concept of Nepotism doesn’t stop with just the Bollywood Industry, it’s present in each and every sphere of our lif...

Cricket- a sport that had created it's foundation in England way back in the 17th century, travelled it's way across most countries around the globe and flourished its best.                              During the initial years of cricket most hadn't recognised it as a sport in India. The Britishers had brought the game to the country in the mid-18th century. Slowly a meagre population began to gain interest in the sport, though they were playing it in and around the local streets of the country but most people did not give much regard to it. When the central government had seen the slow emergence of the sport in the country they came up with an idea to begin an organisation that would handle the sport and it's events on a national level, this idea laid the foundation for the BCCI- Board of Control for Cricket in India on 10th December 1927.

Has Social Media become a platform to express true feelings and opinions ? The new millennial has seen the rise of various social media platforms like Instagram, Facebook, Snapchat, TikTok and Twitter. They have become a forum to discuss on various topics and as well to express self opinions. Nowadays even politicians and higher officials have started using Twitter to express thoughts on the issues happening around us. But does this stop with just telling out opinions and discussions? Actually not. It has become a way to express feelings and thoughts through various mediums. People who are unable to express themselves in real human interactions have begun to use social media as a medium to do the same. It has become a useful tool of expression for many introverts who wish to tell something but decide to keep it to themselves. In instagram, we find a lot of quote pages, thought pages and of course most importantly meme and troll pages . These are actually such people who are us...

Design - An Underrated future for India. "I joined design in XYZ college" The moment we say this to our relatives, Man! Who knew that the course could be so relatable even than the most famous MBBS and Engineering degrees that they give an immediate reply… "So you joined a tailoring course? For that, why did you have to spend so much money?"  That very moment life seems to crash down like an unstable satellite in space. A design student like me wanted to low-key cry that very second.  But the fault is actually not on their part, we have trained ourselves to some standards that cannot be changed, for example however hard you try to explain the specialisation you pursue in MBBS it all boils down to a general doctor. Some things never change. Just like that, A design course is not just about fashion design it's a lot more than that. We have various disciplines like industrial design, communication design, automobile design, graphic design and the list ju...
