Trudeau’s visit to India!


“We like to say ‘people-kind’ and not ‘mankind’, because it is more inclusive.” Yes, I am talking about one of the youngest and the most Prime Ministers in the world, The right honorable Justin Trudeau,whose feminist ideologies and near equitable gender ratios in the ruling cabinet has signaled a flag of change and has the world by storm.

 

India’s interest in this revolutionary Prime Minister has spiked up since his 8 day trip to India, which began on the 17th of February,2018. While the popular media has been obsessing over his good looks and his adorable family, his trip politically has had a not so good review from the media, wherein his alleged ties with Khalistani elements enraged the country.
But moving away from opinions and prejudices, we here at Mercurian Times bring to you now a summary of the Canadian Prime Minister’s trip to India:

  1. The Canadian Prime Minister visited the Taj Mahal in Agra, followed by more trips: Sabarmati Ashram,Akshardham temple in Gandhinagar,Golden temple in Amritsar and Jama Masjid in New Delhi : Thus attempting to get a taste of India’s rich religious diversity.
  2. The Canadian Prime Minister interacted with top business leaders and met representatives from the Indian film industry ( wait, what? Biz and blitz, okay.) at Mumbai, and met more business leaders at New Delhi.
  3. The Canadian Prime Minister interacted with the youth of the country, first at IIM Ahmedabad, and then at a young Changemakers Conclave in New Delhi, inspiring the youth with his mere persona and also his ideas for change.
  4. Finally,the PM of Canada met the Indian PM Narendra Modi at the national capital on the 23rd of february. The discussions ,termed ‘fruitful’ by Prime MInister Narendra Modi, focussed on closer Indo Canada cooperation in sectors such as investment,energy and trade. A total of 6 MoUs were signed between the 2 countries, including a terms of reference enhancing the bilateral relationship between India and Canada.Canada Pension fund is a large investor in India, and PM Narendra Modi announced that he looked forward to allowing Canada to double its investments in India.

Undeterred by the controversies and gossip surrounding his trip to India, including the invite by the Canadian High Commissioner to Sikh Extremist Jaspal Atwal, the Canadian Prime MInister has impacted us all Indians with his grounded and friendly nature, his ever smiling face and his optimistic attitude towards the future to come.

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.

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.
