From wars to incompetent politicians, to...

 Breakfast Babble: ED’s own little space on the interwebs where we gather to discuss ideas and get pumped up for the day. We judge things too. Sometimes. Always. Whatever, call it catharsis and join in people. It’s the New Year! Time to turn over a new leaf, start over, wipe the slate clean and start on a fresh page! Groan. Enough...
If you are a Delhi-ite (or live in North or East India), you might have noticed the closure of McDonald's restaurants and the glaring changes when they reopened. The closure was a very big deal for us Delhi-ites. The reason is that McD had become such an integral part of our food lives, always there for a quick and cheap bite. What...
The Hangover is a classic movie for young people around the world. One night, 4 friends and an unforgettable and uncalled for adventure. After seeing Kaalakaandi's trailer I feel this might be the closest we can come to getting a desi Hangover. I also feel that Kaalakaandi has the potential to reach a cult classic status and perhaps if the...
Air Deccan chairperson GR Gopinath rightly said that Vijay Mallya is a victim of his arrogance and has become a ‘political football’ and is criticized far more than he should have been. Why The Unfair Treatment? Every one of us is aware that Mr. Mallya is a regular party-goer whose interests vary from  F1 to annual calendars, had close political relations...

After an entire summer of speculation when Liverpool FC was forced to apologize for an illegal approach, LFC and Southampton FC have finally come to terms for the transfer of Dutch defender Virgil Van Dijk.

Anil Ambani has drawn up a debt restructuring plan to lessen the huge debt to a minimum. This has definitely salvaged a lot of pride for the much revered Reliance Group. "I am a marathon runner.

Ever wondered if the product that is being offered at a huge discount is genuine or not, chances are, it is not. Online retailers like Amazon, Flipkart, and Snapdeal are notorious for offering massive discounts on everyday products. The deal sometimes is so good that people barely blink an eye before buying the product. But the economics of this rarely makes...
Triple Talaaq became a major political issue few months before the UP Legislative Elections 2017. The issue rose to such an enormous level that even after winning the Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections, Narendra Modi addressed it from the Red Fort in his Independence Day speech. Now that the winter session of the Parliament has commenced after several days of delay,...
Kaalakaandi is making a lot of waves due to several reasons, the music, the crazy and eccentric plot of the movie, Delhi Belly fans are looking forward to something as amazing as it and generally, people just want at least 1 good movie to end this year. However, more than anything, to me it is the casting of Saif Ali...

Airports are of utmost importance to any nation, as they give the runway to a nation’s future. It is necessary to have world-class airports that reflect a nation’s growing economy. When designing or...

You aren’t any safer at home with the online shopping giants pinging your phone with reminders of the great discounts you’re missing out on. We try to reason with our conscience...
There are some typical songs played during weddings without whom any function would be incomplete. And you know what are those songs, nope, not any latest Bollywood songs, instead, they are our much-beloved folk songs from around the country. Yup, folk songs have long been a part of our wedding functions, and for Punjabi weddings, one of them would the...
Kaalakaandi Feature Image 3
Saif Ali Khan recently raised a few eyebrows when the trailer of his new movie, Kaalakaandi came out but as a viewer who wants a fresher take on dark comedy (cue dead baby jokes), ask yourself. Is it not what you want but thanks to CBFC, you haven't been able to have it? The answer to this question will be...

It was barely over a year ago when I joined college and realized that I would have a lot of free time on my hand because lectures are for suckers (PS: They’re NOT). And I needed a way to kill this time that was suddenly available to me, unfortunately, there was a hiccup, I didn't know how to actually...
Counter-Strike is undoubtedly one of the most popular games on the planet, with millions of fans (most of them from engineering colleges in India).

Another year, another season and another chunk of NBA stories and headlines which left us in shock, awe, and amazement.

Kaalakaandi the next offering from the maker of Delhi Belly is definitely making waves with people due to its completely crack-feel kind of trailer and being one of the few movies to venture into black comedy.

Nowadays whenever somebody mentions BJP or Modiji the first thing that comes to my mind is that I still have to link my PAN card to my Aadhar card and the deadline is fast approaching (although I’m silently counting my blessings that the Godforsaken deadline has been extended). Such is the hue and cry our dear Modiji has inflicted upon...
For the uninitiated, what the hell is it? Marital Rape is pretty self-explanatory, it is rape inside of a marriage i.e. nonconsensual sex between a married couple. Now it might be difficult for you to grasp this, it is understandable, given the fact that the judicial as well as legislative branches of this country can't seem to get it. Why...
Giannis Antetokounmpo
"The Greek Freak", as they call him, Giannis Antetokounmpo has gone from strength to strength in his evolution from a silent killer to a fully loaded guns blazing superstar in a span of 3 years.
