SPECULATIVE : A New Year’s State of Mind

“Tomorrow is the first blank page of the 365 day long book.” With puzzling thoughts and all creative juices flooding the brain , with me embracing my new diary and thinking of a plan to be followed for the day. Mistakenly, this plan shouldn’t be taken as a sincere routine to be followed for the year ahead, but in fact an enthusiastic party plan for the night. This is based on the most basic assumption of people thinking that what they do on the new year’s eve is their ultimate activity in the coming year. New year’s eve stands out to be the most precious night in a young individual’s life .They assume complete responsibility for the day on their own. They stand up as a pedestal around which all the hassles of their family and friends take place. With joy and giggles overpowering the very own routine life of one,flooding the house with thousands of party suggestions but concluding to none is the typical tradition of the new year. With confrontation of seniors with their junior offsprings and the serious consequences put up by the most distanced relatives is the major spoil spot of the night. But all’s well that ends well, the night goes amazingly well. The very next day comes the “Resolution Monster” destroying the first most beautiful morning,pricking everyone to take up something enthusiastically with which they shall surely not put up in the future. Often these resolutions help fill the diaries ,as in my case with just a week seriously been taken care of. This is just one side of the coin. The other side remains to be the serious introspection of activities of the year gone. This provides with immense power to accomplish the left out goals,to regain power to work for the past failures. The most important realisation is to learn to avoid procrastination in life.That’s what probably everyone has on their minds on the new year.

As humans we all perceive the new year to bring in prosperity , good health and family. Here’s wishing everyone a happy new year and all the luck.

SHARARAT: THODA JAADU, THODI NAZAAKAT

SHARARAT: THODA JAADU, THODI NAZAAKAT Shring Bring Sarvaling ,BhootBhavishyaVartamaanBadling! One can’t resist being driven away by the sense of nostalgia while being stumbled upon this mantra! It was unarguably the era of entertainment .While a decade has passed on, Shararat, the fantasy sitcom spanning over 5 installments, definitely gives away every 90s’ kid a chance to brag about those good old days. Shararat revolves around the world of fairies and magic. What added to the delight in the mind of its viewers was the subtle comedy and the perfect comic timing. The Malhotra family involving a mischievous ‘nani’ with her impeccable magic chants, a docile mummy who has settled down with the menial jobs she has to perform as a typical housewife , and a naïve and vulnerable Jiya ,whose life has become miserable since the day she is wielded with magic powers, certainly Shararat was a visual treat. But the story had not been far more convincing without the starry line of su

SON PARI

Son pari Mumkin ko namumkin kar de Namumkin ko mumkin Son pari sab hal karti hain Sabki mushkil sab din. Whenever I used to hear this song I used to rush towards my television, because this was my favourite show - "SON PARI" Son Pari was basically a fantasy- adventure TV series. It is based on the story of a little girl name Fruity, who receives a magical gem that, when rubbed, summons a fairy named Son Pari and her friend Altu. Son Pari and Altu start meeting Fruity regularly and have many adventures. They help her get rid of Ruby, a woman who wants to marry Fruity's father, Rohit, for his money. Son Pari is also entitled to save Fruity from Kali Pari ( the main villain). Everyone wishes to have a fairy godmother like Son Pari at some point in their lives. A Pari ( angle) who can solve their problems with a spin of her wand. And this TV show was so famous and loved by everyone because it used to take us to that fantasy world of angels and magic.

INDIAN MAKEUP TRENDS OVER THE YEARS

From Saira Banu in Padosan, Sridevi in Chandini, Karishma Kapoor in Dil Toh Pagal Hai to our all time favourite Poo in Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gum and Mili in Khoobsurat, the fashion and makeup trends have been all fancy and crazy yet so aesthetic and elegant and these leading ladies are surely 'Goals'. One of the most significant shifts that have been observed over the years in the beauty industry is the ultimate evolution of make-up trends varying from vibrant and vivid looks to nude face concepts. Makeup can not be talked about separately when it comes to beauty and fashion,it is an expressive(and perceived to be expensive by men) art, which has evolved immensely over the past century and has vividly been an integral part of our culture. But what have been the major stages of this evolution? Let us take a dive in the past and follow up to the time of the millennials.
