SHOCKED BY THE SHOCK TV??

"You may be sure when a man begins to call himself a REALIST, he is preparing to do something he is secretly ashamed of doing."-SYDNEY .H .ARRIS

So that is what they are...realists. Facing the worst truths of their lives with a lie detector thrusted on to their beings...isn’t it just sending thrills down your spine??But the parliament isn’t exactly as thrilled about it as you and me."THEY FEEL THAT A PERSON REVEALING GRIMMY SECRETS OF HIS OR HER PRIVATE LIFE TO WIN BIG MONEY ON REALITY T.V IS AGAINST INDIAN VALUES AND MORALITY".-mail today,Saturday,July 25,2009.

Apt??Or unacceptable? Does, not revealing secrets form a part of Indian values and morality finds it really awkward. How can we keep on relating issues and happenings which are either new to us or away from the league or which creates ripples on the surface of society...to our Indian values? If we really want something to be stopped or if we desperately need to keep something away from the society, can’t we think of better excuses? If women work or become more independent...it goes against our morality and values. If an amendment is passed over an article of our constitution which has been long untouched...it goes against our morality and values, if we think of educating youth and implementing them with the knowledge of tools to prevent AIDS and STDs and other such similar problems..It goes against our Indian values and morality. Can’t we people and specially our leaders advocate on something more relevant and worth discussing? Like fake encounters and disrespect of women in public and gunda raj of state governments? Why on earth do we people need to waste our valuable time on mere entertainment TV programmes where people are not dragged to the show by their collars but they actually ASSENT to such adventures??THINK AND DECIDE FOR YOURSELVES.

Press 9 for a Crime by Shailendra Jha— Can a family fight a scam empire?

I read Shailendra Jha’s Press 9 for a Crime with my late-night lamp on; it’s a razor-sharp, humane thriller set between East Delhi and scam hubs in Southeast Asia . Fast, funny, and disturbingly real, it follows Aseem’s risky rescue of his missing brother. This review analyses theme, craft, character work and why the book both alarms and entertains and lingers. Why did this book grab me at once? Have you ever opened a book at midnight because the world outside felt suddenly less interesting than the danger on the page? That was me with Press 9 for a Crime . As someone who reads a lot of thrillers, believable stakes, and characters I care about. Jha gives me both within the first ten pages. The opening scenes place you in a cramped East Delhi neighbourhood and you instantly feel the hum of small-town hopes: the son who promises escape through a “job in Bangkok”, the ledger of family debts, the refrigerator light in a kitchen where dreams are rationed. Jha’s background in journa...

The Price of Genius by Binit Priyaranjan Book Review: What Does India's Chess Revolution Truly Cost?

 India's rise from producing an occasional chess genius to becoming a global powerhouse is one of modern sport's most compelling stories. The Price of Genius by Binit Priyaranjan looks beyond trophies and headlines to reveal the families, coaches, failures, philosophy, and relentless pursuit that shape champions. This review examines where the book shines, where it stumbles, and why it deserves attention beyond the chess community. Have you ever Wondered What It Costs to Raise a Genius? Every generation inherits a comforting myth about greatness. We tell ourselves that prodigies are born with something the rest of us simply do not possess. A Mozart sits at a piano before he can properly write his own name. A Tendulkar seems destined to hold a cricket bat. A Viswanathan Anand appears to calculate combinations with supernatural ease. These stories reassure us because they reduce excellence to destiny. If genius is a gift bestowed upon a fortunate few, then the rest of us are sp...
