The mastermind behind the INX media case: P Chidambaram


Senior Congress leader P. Chidambaram was taken into custody by the CBI on Wednesday. He was taken to the agency's headquarters, as he was alleged of money laundering and corruption. He will remain in CBI custody for four days till 26th August, 2019. The case revolves around INX Media Company, which allegedly received foreign funding of Rs. 305 crores even though they had the permission to source only Rs. 4.62 crores in the form of shares. P. Chidambaram is accused of helping the INX Media founders escape justice after they violated foreign investment laws. The CBI lodged an FIR on 15th May 2017 reporting irregularities in the FIPB clearance given to INX Media. According to CBI, FIPB favored INX Media Group and told them to apply for a fresh FIPB approval despite violating FEMA guidelines. They suspect that the ex-finance minister P. Chidambaram has been instrumental in giving such clearances to four more international deals, receiving multi-crore payoffs through multiple shell firms.

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.

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.

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...
