life lessons from Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa (VTV)

  Vinnai Thaandi Varuvya(2010) directed by Gautham Vasudev Menon is an evergreen romantic film loved by all, the beautiful locations, and soothing music by AR. Rahman, unforgettable characters, and beautiful love story made people watch this movie again and again. Simbus's flamboyance and Trisha's gorgeous  looks made this movie a masterpiece, I saw this movie for the first time when I was 9 years old but after re-watching this film after 13 years after its release as a 22-year-old boy I got some good perspectives from the love journey of Karthik and Jesse. If you are single you might get some good insights 😂 1. Love happens if it is meant to happen   Love is not something you plan, it happens, just like the protagonist Karthik who fell in love with Jessie as soon as he saw her walking down the street you too might fall in love with someone as soon as you see them, you will feel the butterflies in your stomach flying with a sudden magnetic pull towards that person, all your wo

Life lessons from RAJINIKANTH'S BABA MOVIE (2002)

Lessons are not only thought by books and teachers it can also be shown to us in the form of movies or series which has a lasting impact, and such movie was Baba(2002) which got re-released in 2022. The movie was a big flop in Rajinikanth's career as he tried something out of the box type movie which included a combo of spirituality and politics, this movie was written by Rajinikanth and directed by SureshKrishna after he read the book autobiography of a yogi by Paramahansa Yogananda  it made him feel the presence of Sri Guru Mahavatar Babaji the greatest master yogi who was born 2000 years back and still lives in the Himalayas,  Rajinikanth was able to feel BABAJI everywhere within and outside himself and this feeling gave him a great intuition about spirituality, as a result, a determined Rajinikanth came up with BABA and released it which was not well received by his fans, but I would rate it as one of the best movies that teach us life lessons, this is based on the spiritual

Money and memories :)

 Let's assume a scenario where you are 85 years old, on your deathbed waiting for your precious life to end what would you be thinking about, your bank balance? or your properties or cars? nah you would be thinking about the most wonderful memories that you experienced with your favorite people, isn't it? Right from a very young age, we have been running as a student at school and college to secure good marks so that we can get placed at a good job which pays us a good amount for us to spend on our needs, wants, pay taxes, make investments and save some for our future needs, while running that race life happens just like that you graduate from school, followed by college, followed by masters and you work your whole life to provide for you and your family, that is your duty isn't it, well that's good but at the end what matters is how well you have spent your time in this life, How good were you towards your friends, peer group, colleagues, family, and other people in yo

Too much of screen time!

 I realize that I am always on my phone expecting texts or calls from WhatsApp, instagram, and from other apps. Whenever I hear the sound of a notification I get excited to be disappointed by some random notification sent by either zomato, swiggy, dunzo,etc.... Most of us can stay on our mobile phones watching content for hours together but we can't meditate for 5 mins each day, read a book for half an hour without a break, or converse with someone without checking our phones. WHY? I believe that we are becoming more and more restless day by day due to the influence of social media and other tech tools which we use on day to day basis, we want our lives to be super fast like movies and moments like Instagram reels so fast that we don't give a damn about what is happening and just keep scrolling next again and again till we realize that we have not paid attention to anything and life is clueless now with guilt overloaded in our mind. Social media is addictive, movies are addicti

Temporary leaves and permanent stays

You will meet lots of new people on a daily basis especially when you are an outgoing person who would like to travel and have curiosity towards learning new things, when you do so you will make new friends who might help you heal your heart or break them. This happens a lot to teenagers and young adults who are willing to expand and develop their network of friends so that they may feel socially recognized, respected, popular, and confident. This is the reason why people spend lots of money on buying good clothes, accessories, expensive phone with a good camera and keep posting pictures and videos of whatever they do on SNAPCHAT, INSTAGRAM, Facebook, and sometimes on LINKEDIN and wait for likes, comments and responses to their stories which fluctuates their dopamine levels. You might see a pattern here: most of the people you meet become friends, hang out with you, text you, talk to you on phone calls, and suddenly they will ghost you. Sounds harsh when I tell you the truth right? Th

Always be a down to earth person

 Being down to earth is being practical, reasonable and friendly or also known as being simple. let me tell you why being a down to earth person matters a lot for developing your character, career and relationships. You are born as a human being in this world and as a human being you are a family member, school/college student, employee/employer of an organization or a player of a team which comprises of other human beings who you might like or not like and vice versa, you will have good and bad times in terms of results wherever you go for eg:- If you play for a cricket team and perform well you will be respected, promoted, praised but when you fail to do so you will be thrashed , demoted, mocked with hate and reprimanded.  You will have to always stay cool, calm and composed in all kinds of situations , try to be emotionally strong and be nice to other people , you should not feel superior and egoistic when you perform and be depressed when faced by failure and criticism as it is all

Are we headed towards a loner society???

Nowadays people are always on their phone watching series on netflix, prime video, hotstar ,etc...they don't really communicate or try to have a conversation and build a relationship with people , most  people are obsessed with their phone that they forget about their own goals and priorities and end up being controlled by AI via its algorithm which manipulates their interests and influences their choices of buying and lifestyle by targeting their attention and dopamine . This is a serious issue as people get introverted day by day and lose many potential friendships with people who will be there for  moral support and be  helpful for them in the present as well as in future. Most of the current generation people prefer to text over call or meeting in person , before the social media came into our lives we used to go out with friends meet them in person and have fantastic conversation but now that's a rare case. Most people especially teenagers and young adults prefer to be l
