Hum chaddis badlenge, buddies nahi!

This post is dedicated to all our friends, because happy times or tough times, you all are special.

Hey guys! 

What is friendship? It is said, friendship is a relationship of mutual affection between two or more people. 

We say, friendship is a relation that simply beats many blood relations! The same relation existing between all ages, gender, caste,  language, community, species etc; that is friendship. It does not come with terms and conditions. There is no range. And the best part, we get to choose our friends.

Let's go back to our school/college days! 

Those tiffin breaks, between the class gossip, major discussions about the opposite gender, shoulders to cry on, getting punished together, screaming our lungs out during events, and being there for each other. They are not just memories; they make us what we are today! Everytime our heart broke to see a friend cry, and everytime we were pleased to make a friend smile, that is what friendship is about. When we leave an institution, most of the times what hurts is leaving behind the people we have spent amazing times with. 

This post isn't about best friends or true friends or close friends. Every kind of friend plays a role in our lives. They make our stay a little more beautiful and worth it. It is one such attachment which makes even a term called romance (which has been overstated a lot) go weak at its knees! 

The following video is a "Back to School" initiative/campaign by Pepsi India. It was uploaded on YouTube in the year 2014 and has more than 2 million views. This video depicts the term friendship in a beautiful way. It's about 4 friends, on their last day of school, reliving all their school memories. They keep going back in time and laugh about all the amazing memories they created. Sharing their food to sharing their laughter, it has all. The background music goes like " School khatam ho raha hai, dosti nahi" which is so so true. And they promise nothing will change ever. 

Click below to watch the video: 

 

So today, in honour of friendship's day and in honour of all wonderful friends we have, we decided to write this post. It's okay if the time is tough and complications are too many, we love our friends and we always will. No matter where you met them, in what way they created a difference, they are special. So go and thank your friends for being there in your lives. DO IT! They deserve it. :) 

Till then Happy Blogging :D

Carly Fleischmann: She inspires us all!

Hey guys!

The Internet and social media have taken over our lives in a huge manner. There are so many forms through which one can share their content with the world and make a place for them and get recognised. Everyone wants success and happiness. So, it is always right to share positivity in whichever way possible!

Carly Fleischmann is one such amazing woman, who was diagnosed with autism and an oral motor condition that prevented her from speaking. Autism, we know is a developmental disorder that impairs the ability to communicate and interact. An autistic person needs a lot of attention and guidance. Similarly, Carly had a lot of trouble during her childhood, everyone tried helping her. At the age of eleven Carly was allowed to use the computer where she typed out:HELP HELP. She was given electroconvulsive therapy. After years of communication and behavioural therapy, she made progress. Today, she has turned into a much more confident and a beautiful person.

                                              

She has a YouTube channel of her own which goes by the name “Speechless with Carly Fleischmann”. The videos are remarkable and uplifting. The startling story encourages so many people and she has become the voice for autism. She has also published a book with her father Arthur, called Carly's Voice. And she hopes that one day she becomes the world's first autistic and non-verbal talk show host. Her story is very inspiring and helps us to acknowledge how tough yet beautiful life can be if one wants it to be!

She has a video in her channel which features Channing Tatum. The video shows how funny, adorable and confident she is in front of him. The video went viral. You can watch it too!

The video got a lot of response and people shared how positive the video is and how confident she seems in front of Channing Tatum! There are many other YouTubers who have shown a lot of support towards her channel. It is so heartwarming to watch her videos, and her story exactly shows how with the right guidance, love and effort one can go a long way.
We hope you like the post!Till then

The clock will start ticking soon!

Hey guys!
You all must be aware that the Indian television series '24' is back with season 2. Season 1 was a huge success. Anil Kapoor who plays the male lead in the show, had been featured in the American version of the same show. He bought the official rights to India. And this was the first time the show had been adapted from the American version. Season 1 aired from October to December 2013. This season revolved around the mission to save the country within just 24 hours. The genre was mostly political thrill. The concept was as appealing as the show.

The cast and their individual performances were praise worthy. The show hits every mark of excitement and precision from the very first minute. The show brings in a sense of thrill and heart gripping action sequences and crazy suspense with extremely well set locations and twists. The story was innovative with the "24 hour" deadline. But what sets the benchmark was the performance of the male lead Anil Kapoor who plays the anti terrorist unit agent, Jai Singh Rathod. The different roles he played throughout one single day were set apart from each other with sheer excellence. The role of the father, the role of the husband, the role of a loyal Indian citizen who has to save his country. They were all done with not only precision but with a sense of reality which kept us glued to this action packed series.

 It is considered to be one of the most expensive TV shows ever produced in India. The show also aired in Australia.
The subplots and individual stories of all the characters were shown beautifully. The cast had major names like Mandira Bedi, Anita Raj, Ajinkya Deo, Neil Bhoopalam, Tisca Chopra etc with Anupam Kher and Shabana Azmi having important roles.

The show ended with a heart touching climax, but now is back with season 2. The shooting started in February 2016, and will telecast on Colors TV soon. The new season will mark the return of the previous cast with a similar story line, Some renowned actors like Ashish Vidyarthi, Sikander Kher, Sakshi Tanwar have joined the cast and have prominent roles in the show. Season 2 promises to be more stylish and daunting.
Eagerly waiting for it to launch, lets just hope it doesn't disappoint. The first look of the new season has already been released. Watch it below.

Make sure you don't miss the first episode because each episode counts. Till then 

HAPPY BLOGGING :D

360 degree panorama!

Hey guys!

What if you could see what’s around you without having to move your neck? And what if we tell you that is possible! Yes you heard that right.

All you have to do is fit a camera that supports a 360 degree view. It is that simple.

360 degree videos are all the rage right now. It is a different form of storytelling. It is amazing to watch a video from different angles. The view is pretty epic and fun to watch. You need a special camera to capture the footage, as normal cameras cannot capture a wide field of view. The camera is not that cheap either. And creating and sharing the content is not easy. A 360 camera can also be created by arranging many cameras (like gopros) together in a manner that it can capture the panoramic view.

These videos are most fun to watch with a VR(virtual reality) headset. If you are into gaming, you are in for a treat. It won’t be very long when you’ll be able to take playing a game to the next level, like the Sony PlayStation VR. It is said that VR will change the future of the gaming world. 360 videos are being hyped today, to adopt the fast growing VR technology.

Since March, 2015 YouTube introduced 360 degree videos. Google wants VR to be accessible to everyone. So, watch the videos down below to understand this amazing technology.The quality is a little low right now, unless you watch them in really high resolutions. If you are watching them from your laptop or pc, you can tap and drag to get the entire view. Try watching them from your phone or tab, it is cooler that way, you just have to move your phone while watching.

Ever wondered how it feels like when you are paragliding?

 Or watching Leonardo Dicaprio win the oscars?

Or enjoying a ride on a roller coaster!

 Pretty amazing stuff going around, right? If you enjoyed them, you can watch other similar videos on YouTube. It is just the beginning of something spectacular! It is taking entertainment and our viewing experience to the next level. Till then

 HAPPY BLOGGING!

Moma ka purse jaise hospital ki pyaari si nurse!

Hey guys!

Recently we came across an article, which rumoured the sequel of a cult show, Sarabhai vs Sarabhai. That excitement majorly led to this post.
This show DOES NOT NEED AN INTRODUCTION. It entered the Indian television with a whiff of fresh air, that made all the age groups hooked to this show, for the short time it ran. While the already existing sitcoms were about all the 'saas-bahu' drama, this show brought a sign of relief for the viewers.

The witty jokes, sarcastic punches, lame comedy, and class apart acting by all the characters in the show, made it stand out.
This episode wise sitcom was a major favourite. It started in the year 2004 and ended in 2006. It has been rated 9.4 by IMDb and has received positive responses throughout.

Sarabhai vs Sarabhai was about an upper class family residing in Mumbai. The characters were set apart by their weird and unique features and one could actually relate to each one of them.

Each episode had a new story but the common theme in this sitcom gained a lot of popularity. The mother-in-law taunting her daughter-in-law, for her typical middle class behavior.

The younger son of the house being his mom's absolute favourite. While the elder son was always asked to choose sides. The father supported his daughter-in-law throughout. This story can be easily related to any Indian family. But how they used these relations to bring about the sophisticated magic in the show, was the major highlight.

What we loved:
Every 'rhyming' poem Rosesh made.
Everytime Maya called Monisha middle-class.
Everytime Monisha bargained.
Everytime Indravadan made fun of Rosesh. Forever neutral Sahil.
Everytime Madhusudan misinterpreted things for his hearing difficulty.
And last but not the least the major technician Dushyant!
We know these are facts that all you guys must be aware of. Also these are generic favourites. But this post was to revive all the love and excitement we had/have for this show.

Let's just pray there is a sequel.. And we would suggest you guys to go and watch all the 69 episodes again. (We will do the same)
Thank you for reading. We have made a little change in our blog. So check it out. We are going to come up with something different in the next blog. Till then
HAPPY BLOGGING :D

Does love really have a gender?

Hey guys!

In the recent times, we have witnessed that more people are accepting and understanding the rights of the LGBT community. People are waking up and spreading this positive vibe with everyone. There are many changes being made across the world. However, this is a very small fraction of people involved in trying to make the world a better place for everyone to live in!

LGBT community has widened all over the world. There are few countries where same-sex marriage is recognised. But there are also many countries, where any kind of involvement between same-sexes might lead one to lifelong imprisonment or worse, death penalty.

In India, people face legal and social difficulties not experienced by non-LGBT persons. Sexual activity between people of the same gender is illegal and is punishable by incarceration. 

There may be many good changes happening, but people of the LGBT community still face many problems. The hardships a person of this community go through is beyond words and an extremely difficult thing to understand by a non-LGBT person. This leads to many unhappy lives, and suicides. So, in respect to this article, today we have a beautiful, heartwarming yet a depressing story for you guys. 

This is a trilogy from the album Blue Neighbourhood by Troye Sivan. Troye Sivan started out doing Youtube videos, which made him famous in the Youtube community. He has always been open about being gay in nature. He even released a coming out video in his channel.We admire the courage of such brave people. These three videos are actually three songs sung by him. The songs are beautiful too. So please watch them. 

We hope that everyone liked the videos, and found the story and the songs appealing.And spread the love folks, with everyone you know. :)
