Bengal in its most mundane flavour.

Image
In the wild adventures of exploring the aesthetic essence of India, you cannot just go without diving in its  divine and  diverse culinary culture.  While giving your taste buds  this hunger sauce,the one must visit place is Bengal for some flabbergasting blend of sweet and savoury.  Though, the whole world thinks of Rabindranath Tagore, Rosogolla and  "Ami tomake  bhalobashi"  when it  comes to  Bengal,  let me tell you that this place is way more profound. You cannot  simply land in five start  hotel  in Bengal and have luxurious dining and  say  " oh!  Taste of Bengal ". That is not how you taste Bengal. You got to wake up to  the  street vendor's  strange  technique of shouting .  You got to have your morning tea  with complementary Marie biscuits and  a news paper.   Screaming at the top of your voice,  bargaining in a fish market on a Sunday morning  or an afternoon  usefully  wasted loitering in a den of almost hundred different types of books

Good morning it's Egg Day!

                       So  the entire world is confined within  four walls with almost negligible physical activities and  uninvited hunger tide every now and then. As a result we are becoming couch potato. I know we are all locked down and this sudden  change has completely turned our life upside down. Believe me or not , this crisis won't last a lifetime and everything will be bright and chrome again .  So it is extremely important for us to take care of ourselves so that we can take care of our loved ones too.                          While staying healthy does includes a lot of  calculated  food intake  but it never means you cannot indulge in mouth watering dishes again.   What if I tell you that it is possible to loose weight  without  dying eating salad only.  I will  be talking about healthy  and dainty flavoursome recipes which will also be low in calories. So, the first thing that pops in my mind when I say " healthy food " is  Egg.

He changed But not overnight Like you read in books But over time Slowly and painfully. He changed when his voice was lost in crowd He changed when his choices were made to compromise He changed when his dreams were shackled within the pages of diary. He changed when his freedom turned into a very underrated word He changed when love made him the Villain He changed when his encephalon took over his benevolence. He changed when he couldn't cry out loud but ought to love  fiercely in front of the world He changed when he was blamed to be a cheater while he was being cheated He changed when he pined for some attention yet hardly gave some of it to himself. He changed when his heart's desire couldn't reach up to his maw He changed when his dream girl from some novel turned out to be a jerk in reality. He changed when he decided not to say "Do I matter anymore ?" He changed when he said "After all this time,was I not g

The Uncherished Homeland

                                                                           Ever gazed at the summer night sky, full of scattered moon dust and wondered how they winked at us from the endless vault beyond the moon’s corona. They appear to us as luminescent dots all over the sky. To our utter  ignorance, the planet Earth which we claim to be our macrocosmic home, which is so big and beautiful, also appears as a dot in the cosmos. It is just that this one is a blue dot, rather a pale blue dot. THE BLANK SPACE               13.8 billion years ago the universe was  created out of a hot Big Bang and over time, the space itself has expanded and had undergone gravitational  forces landing up with the Universe we know today. Our planet Earth is in the third position from the Sun with seven other siblings forming the solar system which is one of the many solar systems in our milky way and for a matter of fact there are tons of milky way in our universe. All the information is scruti

Kho  gaye hum Kaha.  .  .     “The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world’__  a woman, who shapes the destiny of civilisation, the mother of tomorrow and the procreator of this world just  got  trapped by the tragic irony of fate that a beautiful creation like  a girl child is one of the gravest concerns of humanity even today.Society’s parochialism narrows down opportunities when it comes to a girl child. Right from the womb to the tomb, the war never ends. The war of existence. The war of making choices . the war of being a voice in the crowd of the voiceless. The war to end this war.                "Chup  rahe,  tu  ladki hein "  Every girl dreams to fly and sore high up in the sky but the  heavy shackles of society chain her down . Right from the childhood a girl is taught  to be home centric. Things she should play with are dolls and cookery  sets while boys should surround themselves with cars, artificial weapons  and superheroes. A girl's hobbies
