TRIBUTE TO MAHENDRA SINGH DHONI

This is MCD signing off !!



‘Captain Cool’ …well that’s what the world called him. But not anymore. For not because he failed to hold his nerves or something but because he is not our captain anymore.
India and the world witnessed the end of a golden era in the history of cricket when Mahendra Singh Dhoni stepped down as the limited overs captain of Indian team on January 4 of this year. The legacy left by him will be hard to match for all the captains that are to follow, for such are the milestones achieved by him during his tenure as Indian captain.
It is interesting to know that the cricketing legend made his ODI debut against Bangladesh in 2004 and got run out for his first ball and went back without making any runs. Well sure enough, he has come a long way. There has been many defining moments during the captaincy of Dhoni. We still remember the day Dhoni guided India towards T20 World cup glory when India won against arch rivals Pakistan in finals.
Whole of India rejoiced to life when India won the ODI World cup in 2011. The picture of Dhoni hitting the winning six is still fresh in everyone’s mind. He is the only captain to guide our country to so many world titles- The T20 World cup, DI World Championship and last being the Championship Trophy. He has been the biggest entertainer in cricket – scoring runs when the team needed and completing everything by hitting his iconic HELICOPTER SHOT. He is always known for his everlasting batting and finishing skills.

Well even though he is not the captain anymore, he will always remain the coolest cricketer that the world has ever seen. Words of Mahendra Singh Dhoni himself defines him the best-   ‘I believe in giving more than 100% on the field, and I don’t really worry about the results. If there’s great commitment on field, that’s victory for me.’

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 l...

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. This s...

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.  THE ERA OF SIMPLICITY(1910) -There was hardly any makeup and plain sarees with little or no de...
