Hollywood, Bollywood, Tollywood. These are one of the pillars of the country which are gaining huge profits..not just profits but super profits. Movies really take us to the other world no matter what mood we are into. Act as stress buster, relief, make us feel joyous etc., Those 3 hours becomes magical as we are only focused on what the screen is displaying. Both kinds of movies are present, extremely good as well as extremely bad!! We cannot get an overview of the movie just by watching trailer as our expectation rises and the movie may turn out to be a flop. Not being pessimistic..just keeping my opinion.

Hollywood is extremely overrated in India as well as in foreign for obvious reasons as it gave many blockbusters and super duper hits. They have VFX beyond our imaginations be it fictional, or reality. One cannot assume the level of action scenes(Avatar, MCU, DCU series etc.,) people in India are huge fan of MCU series and the previous year release of Avengers end game broke many records, cam imagine the fandom here. People are going crazy over these movies despite of characters being fictional. There cinematography, scenarios take over the whole show. But there are some movies which are utter disappointment for people. There are both the kinds of content available..you need to watch the right one.

Bollywood is overrated as well. Comparatively even the bollywood gets lots of love from the audience. People are ready to spend a lot on Bollywood moviez by watching it over and over in theatre’s just being a fan of the actor/actress. Even it gave many blockbusters(Evergreen ‘3 idiots’, URI, Chichhore, super 30, Badla, Andhadhun) these are the content ful movie. The list is long enough to be mentioned. These type of movies are to be appreciated and to be look forward. But on the other side it also gave disastrous movies which is really a disappointment to us as a viewer, as an audience(Total dhamaal, loveyatri, Himmatwala, Humshakals, Tubelight) these kind of movies gains box office irrespective of their content. As an audience we failed to recognise the good content ful movies and just for the stardom and fandom made worst movies into hit, despite of getting negative reviews movies earned well at box office which shows that we can lick the foot of worst actor, star kids and can kick the good actors and their movies. We ourself supports starkids and rant online about boycotting. The good content ful movies were left unpopular and unrecognised movies like ‘nil battey sannata’ is a movie which will win your heart with its simplicity and innocence. The content is ordinary, yet the movie is unpopular that is not recommended by anyone, The Tashkent files is another movie beyond our imagination yet unrecognised by audience a must watch movie.

Tollywood is underrated. Except for having highly promoted movies everywhere, the other movies aren’t recognised at the first place. Baahubali series was a blockbuster in India and was worth watching. But the other movies which doesn’t have enough promotional events left unrecognised. South movies are focused only on contents irrespective of showing fairness, beauty, and status/standard of living. I know there are some movies which have these 3 propaganda’s but some don’t care about the colour, beauty, or standard…! Movies like 96, , fidaa, Ratsasan, Dear comrade, U’turn..these movies deserve more viewers. Even the worst movies teaches something productive and good out of it. I know, I know..the hindi dubbing sometimes fails to match the level of originality, and the songs were dubbed into literals meaning which turns into disasters. Even this also has good and bad verse. The action scenes sometimes are too much to handle. Just like bollywood, even this assassinates Physics: /

Both the kinds of movies are available, Good as well as bad but its us who has to watch as per content not for the fandom and for star kids.

The oscar winning movie of 2019 “Parasite”is indeed a thought provoking movie. The movie may seem boring at first but will keep you anxious at the scenes coming aftermath, comedy plus thriller will not let you move an inch by your seat so indeed it deserved the award. A must watch movie, highly recommended!!

Sources and Causes of Air Pollution

When we try to steady the sources/causes of air pollution, we usually enlist a series of activities and interactions that create these pollutants. There are two types of sources that causes Air Pollution.

  1. Natural Resources: Natural Sources of pollution includes dust carried by the wind from a location with very little or no green cover, gases released from the body processes of living beings (Carbon Dioxide from a human during respiration methane from cattle during digestion, Oxygen from plants during Photosynthesis). Smoke from the combustion of various inflammable objects, Volcanic eruption etc., along with the emission of polluted gases also makes it to the list of natural sources of pollution.
  2. Man-Made Sources: While looking at Man – Made contribution to air pollution, it can be further divided into two parts. a) Outdoor Pollution Sources- The major outdoor pollution sources include power generation, vehicles agriculture/waste incineration, industry and building heating systems. Smoke feature as a prominent component. The Smoke emitted forms of combustion like in biomass, factories, vehicle furnaces etc., Waste dumped in landfill generates methane, which is harmful in several ways. The reactions of certain gases and chemicals also from harmful fumes that can be dangerous to the well-being of a living creature. b) Indoor Pollution Sources- In low and middle- income countries, mostly burning fuels such as dung, coal and wood in inefficient stoves or open hearths produces a variety of health-damaging pollutants. These include carbon monoxide, methane, PM, PAH, VOC etc., Expresses to smoke from cooking fire causes 3.8 million premature death each year.

Some more various causes of Air Pollution

  1. The Burning of fossil fuels: SO2 emitted from the combustion of fossils fuels like coal, petroleum for energy in power plants, and other factory combustibles is one of the major causes of air pollution. Billions of vehicles run on roads are powered by gasoline and diesel engines that burn petroleum is made up of hydrocarbons and engines don’t burn them.
  2. Agricultural Activities: Ammonia is a very common by-product of agricultural- related activities and is one of the most hazardous gases in the atmosphere. The use of insecticides, pesticides, and fertilizers in agricultural activities has grown quite a lot. They emit harmful air into air pollution. Famers also set the fields and old crops on fire to keep them clean for the next round of swing. The burning to clean fields causes pollution by releasing harmful gases in the air.
  3. Waste in Landfills: Landfills are land areas in which waste is deposited or buried. These deposited is a major greenhouse gas that is highly flammable and very hazardous. E-waste is another grave concern involving a lot of unscientific dismantling such as chemical leaching burning wires & others.
  4. Exhaust from Factories & Industries: Manufacturing industries release a large amount of carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, organic compounds and chemical into the air, thereby depleting the quality of air. Manufacturing Industries can be found at every corner of the Earth, and area has not been affected by it. Petroleum refineries also release hydrocarbons & other chemicals that pollute the air and cause air pollution.
  5. Mining Operation: It is a process wherein minerals below earth are extracted using large equipment. During the process dust and chemical release in the air and cause air pollution. This is the reason, responsible for a worker’s health condition.
  6. Domestic Activity: Household cleaning products painting supplies emit toxic chemical in the air and cause air pollution, Suspended particular matter(SPM) is another cause of air pollution. Referring to the particles afloat in the air. SPM is usually caused by dust, combustion etc., According to WHO, around 7 million premature death cause every year due to the combined effects of ambient (outdoor) and household air pollution.
  7. Natural Events: There are certain natural events such as volcano eruptions, forest fires, and dust- storms which are nature- born and cause air pollution.

“Ensuring Safety with Automotives”

Automotives have been an important part of our lives and have helped make life much easier and travel more comfortable. The development in science and technology and with the industrial revolution gave manufacturing and production a new standard to work and provide better and new products but also work to unemployed people. Cars, trucks, bikes have  helped humans to reach their favourite places without any thought and within some minutes or hours of travel. Aircraft and airships have not only enabled people to travel to different parts of the world but also to different planets. Thus, advancement in technology and new ideas have helped humans to turn their dreams Into reality. 

These automotives have been a part of our life since ages and we have seen advancment in their structure, in their material and their engines. Every new model of these automobiles has better average and efficiency along with better aerodynamics and looks. 

But the problem with these automotives is the risk factor, which hasn’t seen any decline, rather for most cases has seen a great hike. People lose their life in manor accidents happening all over the world. But no significant changes or policies have come up as such. These automotives are very expensive but still lack to provide surety of life in case of any mishappening. These automotives must be impact resistant and should be able to stay rigid in case of accidents so as to make the life of the person sitting in it safe. 

The bitter truth is that, in spite of development in materials and manufacturing techniques, most of the automotive companies are bound to their older ones, which not only enable them to make much if profits but also are easy to manufacturers. Also the main issue is with the knowledge and skills of people. Most of the people do not know the better and best alternatives to most of the material used in these automotives which not only provide strength to the structure but also absorb most of the impact. The main reason is also the loss of profit share, as most of thee. Material cost more and they can’t afford much of these investment to be done, as they still had to keep the proves same, as if they will increase, people might not even buy them, which thus significant leads to lack of selling of these automotives or if it happened, the company profit share would reduce. 

People should also understand the importance of their life and must ask for the Return on investment which is their right as they are spending high amounts of money in buying these automobiles. Maybe in future better alternatives must be seen in the marketplace, assuring safety of the individual travelling in it. New materials are being into researched which  would effectively used for making these automotives which not only will maintain the profit share but also will stay strong, rigid, impact resistance and thus will assure life of individual and safe travel possible. The only need is for the companies to understand and care for their customers, provide them the value for the product and thus making traveling much safer. 

Importance Of Self Defence

Self defense means self-defense or self-defense. First of all, we can tell you that while self defense, a person can beat the person in front, or can even kill someone, but if we have proof that all this happened during self defense then it is not punishable. . Yes friends, in the effort to protect their life, physical harm to a person is also possible, as well as life threatening life can be taken. As you all know, India is a huge country as well as a democratic country, every citizen has equal rights here. The constitution of all India gives every citizen of the country the right to safeguard himself. Section 96 to 106 of the Indian Penal Code has given detailed discussion of the right of self-defense of a person.
In today’s time where there is a danger of losing life all the time, there is a great need to give self defense training especially to girls and women, the importance of the system to educate every citizen about the methods of self defense and to deal with the critical situation. Are required So that they can avoid the loss of their life and property, the methods of self defense should come to every person. Women can also exercise the right of self defense by risking themselves and can save themselves from loss of any life and property.
Women are targeted by many criminals because they look fragile and cannot defend themselves. Many women get nervous in the event of an attack, which they easily overtake. The best form of defense of a woman is her mind, some of the ways in which a woman can defend herself are strange but in reality very intelligent. In many self-defense classes, women are taught to remain calm and use their heads in critical situations.
Women often keep all their important belongings in purses. An easy way for a woman to keep her purse is to keep an eye on suspicious people, if a woman suspects that someone is following her or trying to steal her purse, turn them off by calling her something unexpected A good example of this should and should surprise them, when an elderly woman, after someone senses her behind, saw that the thief is straight in the face and said, “Don’t I know your mother?” Started by the woman, the culprit quickly ran in the opposite direction, I believe that a woman’s intuition can be important women before they realize things.
Self-defense is a defense for conduct but for defense, a crime will occur. As with most criminal defenses, the fact that the crime has been committed is not at issue. At issue is the liability of the defendant or accused for an offense that is for some reason that justifies or excuses it or which otherwise excludes the rescuer from the liability of the offender.
Self defense is a legal term that allows a person to use reasonable force to protect him or a third person incited by personal injury as long as the defender has reason to believe that he or a third person Is in serious danger The term may also refer to the right to defend one’s own property (such as their home), it allows a person to protect himself from harm under appropriate circumstances. This is a general defense for those accused of assault, battery, or murder.
Laws on self-defense vary by state. Generally, self-defense can only be used in response to immediate threat. For example, if the person holding the knife threatens you that if you do not give him or her all your money, and you do not run away, you cannot claim self-defense if you victimize the criminal after 24 hours And punch him. Additionally, the threat that a self-defense warrant may be verbal or physical, unless a reasonable person in the same situation would feel that the attacker would harm him, for example, a reasonable person would not experience that three The year-old threat will be given to you unless you give him chocolate, it will cause you physical harm, but a big man threatens to punch you until you can give him your wallet, causing proper fear.
Finally, the risk of harm must be activated when you defend yourself. If the threat is eliminated and there is no further threat of violence (and thus the threat is eliminated), the justification for self-defense decreases.

Few tips to overcome depression

A group of conditions associated with the elevation or lowering of a person’s mood is Depression. We will get a consultation when we have suicidal thoughts and might harm yourself or others. When you’re feeling anxious or stressed spend some time in yoga, learn new things, meditation, listen to music. Don’t avoid any of the meals, keep yourself healthy to be enthusiastic. When you’re stressed, your body needs additional sleep and rest and by doing exercise daily you feel good and also helps to maintain your health. Take a deep breath makes you feel relax. Be proud of, however, close you get, acceptance that cannot control everything, put your stress in perspective, and a good laugh makes you feel better from depression.

Make an effort to replace negative thoughts with positive ones. Make yourself active which helps you to support and also it will break your stress. Be in relationships is a way to feel free. Tell friends and family you are feeling overwhelmed and let them know how they can help you. Talk to the physician or therapist for professional help. Be patient when you start a new exercise program. Most sedentary people require about four to eight weeks to feel coordinated and sufficiently in shape so that exercise feels easier. Constantly shouting in your ear with a never-ending prattle of your most anxious thoughts and worries. Ignoring your anxiety doesn’t make it go away, the restless thoughts just continue.

Bankers in India are more productive working from home

Work from home may remain part of the norm for many in India’s financial industry beyond the end of the world’s biggest lockdown. The reason: elimination of lengthy commutes in the past three months has boosted employee productivity. Take Jefferies’ India team for example. On average, its 60 members have managed to save over an hour every day on commute and 70% of them have seen higher productivity, according to a note from the brokerage, drawing on a survey of its staff.

As banks and asset managers around the world try to figure out how they’ll manage their offices after the coronavirus pandemic, many in Mumbai – India’s finance hub – see the opportunity for permanent change in how they work. The average commute time on the city’s major routes is over an hour, more than twice the averages of SingaporeHong Kong and New York, according to a study by the IDFC Institute, a public policy think-tank.

Neil Parikh, chief executive officer of Parag Parikh Financial Advisory Services, like many others is finding the experience better than expected – so much so that he’s reconsidering plans of adding to the money manager’s offices in India’s top cities. He plans to equip new hires with laptops and high-speed Internet connections instead. “Now there’s no stigma around working from home,” he said. “I can see some from my research team being much more productive. Working from home saves almost 3-to-4 hours everyday in travel time for some people.”

Reliance Securities Ltd. has shelved plans to shift to a new premise. The firm, one of India’s leading retail broking houses, will have half its staff continue to work from home as it implements a rotational program to comply with social distancing norms, according to Chief Human Resource Officer Meenaa Sharma. “Many of our employees are saying that their productivity has gone up, and feedback from clients on research reports is good,” she said.

Second Wave
nullWhile the daily number of virus cases in Mumbai, India’s worst-hit city, has been stable in recent days, concerns over a second wave means businesses have little choice but to operate remotely. With economy set for its first full-year contraction in 40 years, India has begun reopening from the lockdown imposed on March 24 even as the country has the fourth-highest number of infections in the world.

Yet, not everyone in the world of finance is in a position to work remotely on a long-term basis. While banks and stock depositories had been open through the lockdown, designated as ‘essential services’, dealers who execute trades may have to return to office in greater numbers once regulatory relaxations are rolled back. “Businesses like ours where there’s sensitivity of information, at least some part of staff like dealers have to be in the office” said Jinesh Gopani, head of equities at Axis Asset Management Co. “Those parts were allowed at home because it was a crisis. But it is not ideal from the regulator’s point of view in the long term.”

For now, only a fraction of the staff in the financial-services industry is back in office. The unexpected benefits of working remotely mean it’s likely to be a favored option well into the future. “Productivity has improved dramatically because of removing unproductive travel time,” said Gopani. Working from home one or two days a week may become ‘the new normal’.

Frequency of floods has increased because of climate change

Mumbai floods: How to report road closure using Google Maps - The ...

NASA describes climate change as a long term change in the average weather patterns preexisting in local, regional and global climate.  Most of the changes observed in Earth’s climate since the early 20th century are primarily driven by human activities, particularly fossil fuel burning which releases greenhouse gasses like methane, nitrogen dioxide and most importantly, carbon dioxide (CO2). These gasses are heat trapping in nature and are raising the Earth’s average surface temperature. The temperature increased caused by man-made activities is referred to as global warming.

Global warming is causing extreme weather events like floods, cyclones, draughts, forest fires, heat waves, and hurricanes and melting polar ice caps of the planet. India being a tropical country faces floods every year. We also have huge coastline spanning 7,500-odd km and runs past nine states which are very vulnerable to flooding. The rapid melting of polar ice caps because of Global warming has accelerated the rise of sea levels as observed by study conducted by an IPCC panel. This is going to impact people living near the coastal areas and in islands. Mumbai, one of the largest cities in the world, with a population of 20 million is projected to be completely submerged by rising sea levels. Glaciers are also melting in the Himalayas, which is projected to increase flow rates in the Ganges and Brahmaputra Rivers. In 2013, heavy rain followed by a glacial lake outburst caused devastating floods in the state of Uttarakhand. The floods 4,000 people, destroyed and caused damages of 3.8 billion dollars.

Monsoon in 2019 witnessed 560 extreme rainfall events, a 74% jump from 324 events recorded in the year 2018. The heavy rainfall caused floods that led to a death toll of 1685 lives, spread across 14 states of the country, with Maharashtra accounting for the maximum deaths. According to Home Ministry officials heavy rains and floods fully damaged 1.09 lakh houses, partially damaged 2.05 lakh houses and destroyed 14.14 lakh hectares of crops. Responding to floods in different areas at the same time as happened last year strains emergency response efforts. NDRF, Army and the Air Force were deployed to rescue people across six states in northern and western India. An estimated 1.2 million people were living in government relief camps.

According to IPCC panel, the frequency of freak weather events like floods would drastically reduce if the rise in temperature was limited to 1.5 degree Celsius, however it is highly unlikely that we are able to achieve that target. In a study conducted by IIT Gandhinagar, it was found that short bursts of heavy rainfall, lasting only hours, are likely to increase by 20 percent if the global mean temperature rises above 1.5 degree Celsius. Such extreme events will be responsible for most cases of urban flooding.

Advantages of being a teenager

By Debalina Mukherjee


“His best companion, innocence and health. And his best riches ignorance and wealth. How happy he who crowns in shades like these. A youth of labour with an age of ease”These words were said by Oliver Goldsmith.
A teenager has the best of both worlds.If a teenager commits a mistake he or she is easily forgiven. Well, it is something to alin to, enjoying the fruits of adulthood without having to shoulder its responsibilities.
The best thing about being a teenager is that the elders and teachers take then seriously. Their individuality is respected and are taken for granted. Their life tends to changeA change is observed in their life. While beng children they wee asked to go and play while something important was being discussed, being a teenager they are often called up togive their views and opinions. This boosts their confidence and generates the feel of being important. In this stage may teenagers bend towards various sports and activities which in future becomes their profession as well. This is the stage when they get opportunity to excel in different fields. The can enjoy abandunt freedom without worry. But besides this they have to take may serious decisions of their life as well that can have a major effect on their future.They have to sit for various competitive exams as well. They always have a keen desire to achieve something big. The spirit of challenge and competition makes them more energetic and enthusiastic. They learn to be patient and to endure many things.They are least afraid of new challenges and accept life the way it comes. They can learn new things very easily.Teenage life is full of new experiences.They can accept and adopt new environments very easily. Maturity develops and a sense of responsibility grows within them. There are many examples where people have chosen their professions based on the passions that they had during their teenage like. Namely ,Sourav Ganguly and Sudha Chandran.According to me this phase can be called the golden period of anyone’s life and it should be thoroughly enjoyed before its brighness fades away with passing time. This is the time to gather knowledge and get ready to accept opportunities and swore like a golden eagle in the deep blue sky of learning and tend to fly through imagination. This stage of life is just like the Autumn season when everything is very beautiful and colourful.
To conclude the teenage life is the most beautiful and crutial stage of a person’s life but just as time and tide waits for none similarly this phase is very limited and short lived.I am pretty sure that if chance is given many of us would like to go back to our teenagr life and remain there only. But sadly rhat is not possible..We all have great memories of our teenage life which we all will be cherishing throughout our life.Every individual should utilize it to the fullest because it comes but only once.
