One course. Three examinations. Hidden talents. Years of experience. And appreciation? None.
This is not my sob story.
This is a call out to all those Twenty-year-olds who have or will get rejected at some stage of their Entrance exams, will be made to feel like losers, unless they’ve got Swiss accounts or a ‘Gora’ NRI backing from Canneda.
I sincerely welcome...
The Shahrukh Khan starring Raees finally hit the cinema halls on January 25th, after witnessing a series of delays since its first teaser launch in July’15.
Although no King Khan starrer movie ever gets released without an obvious amount of hype surrounding it, Raees was a bit of a special case. The movie was taken to court by the son of criminal...
Divorce can be a trying process, where both the parties go through a lot, not only in terms of legal process but the emotional and psychological impact it has is immense.

Manchester United completed their last missing piece of the puzzle by winning the Europa League and most importantly secured Champions League Football for the upcoming season.
Are United climbing the ladder onto glory days again or will the post-united era continue to be an era of unfulfilled dreams and hopes?

Let me bring to you a list of absolutely normal banned things across the world in seemingly 'modern' countries. We are all very quick when it comes to criticizing an Islamic nation about their ridiculous laws. But hey, you're in for a reality check.

In the past couple of weeks, I have noticed at least 4 different DTC buses that have broken down in the middle of busy roads.
Not only does it create major traffic that lasts a good half hour or so, but it also brings to light the poor maintenance that these buses get.
And now with the tragic death of 2...
We've all had those heartbreaking, soul-crushing, down in the dumps, I-don't-want-to-live anymore moments at the mall when your heart is glued to that one thing that can make your world better but Mom says "NO" *glass breaking*.
Yes, guys, I’m talking leather boots, oxford shoes, denim shirts that cost an arm and a leg and maybe one week's laundry.

Is ‘Natural’ and ‘Organic’ the same thing? Answer in one word – NO!
For quite some time, there has been a massive change in the eating habits and thinking of the people when it comes to food. Everyone wants to eat HEALTHY. There has been a sudden boom of natural and organic products. Nobody wants to have food items which...
Street plays, a separate wing in the theatre world has been prevalent from a long time now. If you have watched Dhanush starrer Raanjhanaa, you'd know what street plays and theatre groups are.
For those of you who aren't aware, like the name itself suggests: a street play is a type of theatrical performance on streets (public places) without the...
It’s here. After months of long, winding, prevaricating and exhausting teasers and motion posters, the first official trailer for Game of Thrones has finally dropped. And it is, oh so very, very good.
For those of you who aren’t familiar with Martin’s Universe, get out from under that rock of yours and get a life. For the rest, beware of...

LSR girl Rhea Grover was the talk of the town after bagging a Rs. 29 lakhs package from Parthenon-EY (Google it if you want, folks. Too jealous to explain it).
This news also led to many people asking the question: Does the name of the college matter when a student sits for placements?
We at...
Admission time is fast approaching, cut-offs to DU will be announced soon, entrance exams results will be out, and there will be a flurry of bright-eyed students trying to figure out which way to go.

To begin with, this ain't your basic, run-of-the-mill-vanilla-flavored boring Travel Diary. It's a completely innovative run-of-the-mill-vanilla-flavored boring Travel Diary...
Oh well; let’s just go with it... In June 2015, I made my way to this tiny, yet exciting world of Singapore, where I found my true love... with whom I had a wet steamy, hot, breaths heavy-all sweaty, photo shoot...
Let's talk about echo chambers; a term which you might have heard in fancy parliamentary debates but never bothered to fully understand.
I still remember my teenage years. Full of raging hormones and tumultuous thoughts. One very prominent complaint I had was that I felt trapped, isolated, and confined.
I felt as if nobody could understand what I was saying, and...
In the recent times, there has been a lot of flak received by Delhi University owing to their poor infrastructure and the bad state of colleges in general.
The low rankings that many DU colleges got in the recent evaluation put bad infrastructure as a prime reason for not making the cut.
That and the recent accident involving Daulat Ram College where...

So, here we go on a nostalgia-filled ride!

Let’s take a look at how the Clinical Establishment Act has “helped” the health set-up:
Incident 1:
A critical patient is admitted to the ICU of a private hospital. The patient progressively worsens and unfortunately, dies. The patient party ransacks the hospital, threatening everybody on duty with, “Dekhe nebo, joto shob chorer dol.” (We’ll see through this, all of you are...
So boards are done, cut-off lists will be out soon and most of you are planning their way on which college to apply to, selecting courses and sort of just mapping out the next 3 years of your life.
The first year of college can be a very stressful and confusing time for a lot of us.
It is not just...

The Premier League concluded with yet another stellar season. Defending champions Leicester City couldn't hold on to their crown, surrendering it to Chelsea, who went on to win it in style with one game in hand and rejuvenated their status as one of Europe's elite.
From all that happened on the last day of this amazing season, let's take a...
The hysteria Indian media has towards Cannes is a nice way to know how we indirectly contribute to white supremacy. The media is so unnecessarily enthusiastic about Indian appearances at the film festival that the only questions it has for international artists is whether they like the spice in Indian food or not.

Alright, let me make it clear right off the bat. I am an engineering student from a college affiliated to Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University.
