It is many a day now, since I came to realize that being posted in the small town of Sahranpur in northern uttar pradesh was indeed a blessing in disguise for the likes of me. Its strategic location makes it just a car drive away from places like Rishikesh and its flowing rapids,dehradun and ...Read more

Atlas Shrugged is the astounding story of a man who said that he would stop the motor of the world -- and did.

'The Last Samurai' could well be to Japan what Braveheart was to Scotland. Both are big, blustering, battlefield epics, set within genuine historical events, but at the same time contorting that history almost beyond recognition in order to meet the demands of Hollywood. While both films make fo...Read more
