Yesterday, Google honored Hamida Banu with a special doodle. Some time ago, we stumbled upon a photo that led us to the discovery of this incredible woman and her amazing life. Dive into our exclusive story to learn more about her remarkable journey. 1/15
Just watched Heeramandi. Found everything but heermandi in it. I mean either you don’t set your story in 1940’s Lahore, or if you do- you don’t set it in Agra’s landscape, Delhi’s Urdu, Lakhnavi dresses and 1840’s vibe. My not-so-sorry Lahori self can’t really let it go.

The Last Supper by Leonardo Da Vinci is one of the most celebrated artworks in history and over the years many artists have come out with their versions of the painting. One of them might just be in your backyard in good old Calcutta. Let us explain. 1/22
Some of you may know of Ranga and Billa as villains from the cinematic world. But as they say, truth is often stranger than fiction – Ranga and Billa are more real than reel and more villainous than they are portrayed to be. 1/21
Mr. Netanyahu, antisemitism is a vile and disgusting form of bigotry that has done unspeakable harm to millions. Do not insult the intelligence of the American people by attempting to distract us from the immoral and illegal war policies of your extremist and racist government.

Election season is also time for turncoats, shifting effortlessly from one political party to another. In Hindi there is a popular phrase describing this trait, Aaya Ram Gaya Ram ('Ram has come, Ram has gone'). There is a peculiar story behind this phrase. 1/18
@Paperclip_In And Wheeler had the scheme that you could return the book you had bought in the previous station and buy a new one at the fraction of the price. Long and slow train journeys, this was a boon
Read books people. Lack of a healthy reading habit will make u a right wing chomu and make u want to vote for ppl like modi et all. I caught the reading bug in 5th std, due to my school librarian, who was an army officers wife, (Bless her always) when we were in Mathura.

The big losers in these elections are going to be all the biased media houses and their anchors. Baaki may We, the people always prevail.
The best thing about fascists today is that if you write "don't vote for fascists, don't vote for hate" without naming anyone, they usually identify themselves.
"That communal parties & a secular political state can never go togather." Listen to Swami Ranganathananda, former president, Ramkrishna Math & Mission. Vote against hate.
