“…the car sounds like its having a crisis. Like Laddy Chatterly having one of her crisis…..”Some juvenile laughs would ensue. I love Top Gear and would watch reruns of old episodes but i remember this reference standing out. What did it mean? who was this lady chatterly? well i finally have found what the fuss is all about. It is an interesting read / listen - talks about womens sexual desires and...
“Put me back in London….i need to breathe in the city.”Melodramatically delivered in the new BBC sherlock series, it re-affirms the characters intimate knowledge and relation with his home city. Much of it is true to be truly immersed in a place - be it new surroundings or old haunts. Or a home town. The smells, sounds and sights of where you grew up - new and old.

The other day I was watching a new series ‘Space Gen’. Got to know about it due to its viral vedio of its promotional event, how the chair was blocking the main poster.

The Hardy Boys had way too much action (not that of course!...
Growing up in India, the Mahabharata was more than just a story—it was a part of the air we breathed. Sunday mornings meant watching B.R. Chopra’s epic unfold on TV with my family, wide-eyed and deeply moved. So when I picked up Story of Mahabharata: Part 1 by Kaushal Kishore, I wondered: “What could be new for someone who’s already read and seen so many versions of this timeless tale?” The answer...
