Murder is always having a mystery behind it... Previously on Murder Mystery: Samaera was found  dead while Sahil was found negotiating with someone in a  dark alley  . Samaera's  post mortem  was going on while media was busy speculating about the murder. Sahil was in a big problem  and Ratan was trying desperately to get to prove Sahil as a murderer . Mishra Ji get's the  report . Sahil makes a big announcement . ********  A press conference was lined up for the commissioner of Police, who sat uncomfortably on a chair, cushioned with the red velvet cloth. Standing behind him was Narayan, the head constable and sitting beside him was the man in charge of this case, Mishra. Media was anxiously waiting for the commissioner to speak. “Good morning everyone, we have got the reports and the reports said exactly what we thought earlier.” said the proud commissioner, as if he had solved the murder mystery. “But, what does the report ...

Cheers! I know, you haven’t told your parents that you drink, or maybe your parents are really cool. Moreover, bachelor's pad without drinks is like a whisky peg without three cubes of ice (couldn’t come up with a better analogy). So, won’t tell you to not to drink that but surely will say drink responsibly. Now, with the drink, it’s always a question what to have something with it? A fish fingers, fried chicken or if you are vegetarian then maybe French fries or a pack of lays with tobacco sauce or cheese dip. But that’s too oily and hence unfit to support a cold beer pint or a glass of your favourite whisky (I still don’t get why people enjoying a glass of wine always have a plate of assorted cheese sticks beside the glass). Today, I will give you a nice recipe which can actually increase the quotient of your drinking will surely tantalise your taste buds. This is something I tried making once and taste amazing and hence named it ‘Nachos Twist’. The following in...

The Mahabharata Secret by Christopher C. Doyle: A book Review ISBN: 9383202319 Edition Language: English Published Date: 21 October 2013 by OM Books Page Count: 386 The novel announces Christopher C. Doyle in the India author arena and with a potent weapon of being one of the most captivating read in theology genre. For a beginner, it’s a nice read since the chapters are clearly defined and one can easily understand where the author is, whether in past or in present.

The Krishan key by Ashwin Sanghi: A book review ISBN Number: 9381626685 Edition Language: English Published Date: 24 th August 2012 by Westland Page Count: 475 This book alternates between the Mahabharata times; the story is told by none other than Lord Krishna in the first person and present day sketch, which revolves around the protagonist, Historian Ravi Mohan Saini.   It is believed that Vishnu has reincarnated nine times till now and will take last and final birth as Kalki Avatar in Kalyug; hence called Dashavatara. This story revolves around the eighth and tenth avatars of Vishnu. Though research done by the writer is as usual thorough and he knows where to use which information. The story line is riveting and forces you to turn pages, even though your eyes get tired and want to drift off in dreams. It’s like reading Dan Brown of Indian mythology, rather a theology. Though, I will not compare the two as both are of different eras and have a sub...

Book Review: The Rozabal Line A heavy read for someone who is not linked to a religion other than his, rather not linked to any religion. Every religion is having its own myths, its own stories, its own heroes and villains, its own morals and values and more importantly its own timeline of inception, though multiple linkages can be established between the religions and the diversity of thoughts one religion has within it. This book is mythology infused thriller, something which Dan Brown is famous for. The plot is related to Jesus and covers every region, religion, philosophy, geography and time. The events which talk about the lineage of Jesus staying in India and the story of Jesus crucifixion is described with such a clarity that people like, who have little to no knowledge of other religions could understand what was going on. Your eyes can actually visualise the streets of old London and the churches of Goa through the eyes of Vincent Sinclair, the protagonist. The b...

Do you pay to be a minority? Picture courtesy: national.deseretnews.com Our Income tax department is a very nice place, once in a year, they work when the fiscal calendar ends and that too they are not sweating because of workload. Here’s why: India’s income tax department, which was disowned by our beloved Delhi CM, Arvind Kejriwal (beloved? Seriously Mrigank!), recently came up with a report providing the glimpse of how India fared in filing income tax for the year 2012-13 (half a decade too late Sir). According to the reports, India can now officially have a new minority which can fight for quota rights in school, colleges, and public and private jobs. Since I am writing this article, I want to coin a term for them…hmmm…It’s tough, okay for the time being let’s call them-”Tax Trolled”. I tell you the reason why? The report, which I could understand through my knowledge, states that in the population of 125 crores people, around 2.87 crores people filed the income t...

Children waiting for rain to come.... courtesy: youthkiawaaz.com I read somewhere that India got a rare opportunity to have a gravitational wave detector, which was discussed in an astrophysics meet which happened in Utah, USA. It’s a moment of proud of the “literate” Indian citizen and once complete this feat will be comparable to ISRO’s Mars Mission. But, one can’t keep away from the situation which has become a norm in Maharashtra and other parts of India, where drought is like a guest, which comes untimely but never leaves and its take such a toll on the “budget” of the family that people start committing suicide or are killed because of heat stroke, when they try to fetch water for themselves from far off places. It’s a shame for a country which calls itself a republic and is ranked third biggest economy of the world. It’s a shame for a country whose Prime Minister is bringing a lot of currency to develop India and whose cash rich cricket league is the most wat...

Murder is always having a mystery behind it... Previously on Murder Mystery- Mishra Ji gets the report of Samaera's murder- Chapter-06 ********** A press conference was lined up for Sahil of Samaera Enterprise, which was renamed by Sahil from Kapoor Enterprise after he had married the elder daughter of one of the most powerful business tycoon of India-the Shah. Vinit Shah was a big name in the textile industry and after his demise, it was his daughters Samaera and Sanjana, both Harvard graduates, who were filling their dad’s shoes. “Mr Kapoor sorry for your wife’s demise. But, what is your after thoughts after she is gone?” asked a reporter. Since the flashes continuously popped up and the camcorder light was too glaring; Sahil was not able to see anyone’s face. “Listen, I am here for business, not for any personal chit chat. I am in a very tight position right now, both personally and professionally and hence will request you and everyone sitting here to stic...
