Why English Vinglish is the ultimate comfort movie

  Why English Vinglish is the ultimate comfort movie! Some movies are like a warm cup of adrak chai on a rainy day—soothing, familiar, and always hitting the right spot. English Vinglish is one such masterpiece. Whether you’re in need of motivation, a good laugh, or just want to watch a simple and cozy classical, this movie delivers every single time. Here’s why we keep coming back to it like it’s our favorite cozy blanket. Shashi Godbole = The OG Relatable Queen Shashi’s struggles are so real. Who hasn’t felt slightly out of place in a fancy setting or been roasted for their English pronunciation? I feel you Shashi, I feel you. I also can't differentiate between AMERICANO, CAPPUCINO, LATTE!! Watching her hustle to learn English while casually making laddoos like a boss is the kind of multitasking we aspire to. The New York Diaries we secretly want Let’s be honest: seeing Shashi navigate the big city with that desi swag  (and Laurent lowkey simping for her) gave us all main...

FARAH KHAN: The OG Brain Rot Queen of Bollywood!

 FARAH KHAN: The OG Brain Rot Queen of Bollywood! If Bollywood had a ‘masala’ recipe book, Farah Khan would be the undisputed master chef. Her films? A deliciously chaotic blend of over-the-top drama, whistle-worthy dialogues, dazzling song sequences, and the kind of comedy that makes zero sense but is 100% entertaining.

THE REWATCH VALUE IS UNMATCHED! Let's be honest—watching a Farah Khan film today is just as fun, if not more than when they first came out. In fact, rewatching them in 2025 is an even more unhinged experience because now we truly appreciate how ahead of her time she was. Om Shanti Om – A full-on Bollywood fever dream where reincarnation, revenge, and disco collide. The film knew it was extra and leaned in...

The Dark Side of Instant Gratification in the digital age! We’re all used to getting what we want instantly in today’s digital world. While this is a well-worn topic, I’m here to share my take on how constantly chasing quick fixes is slowly ruining our patience and long-term goals. I am Titiksha Desai, a second year student of MIT WPU, and i would like to use this platform to share my thoughts and opinions with y'all! We live in an era where everything is just a click away—food, clothes, information, love. But here’s the catch: this era of instant gratification is slowly but surely eroding one of the most underrated virtues we have: patience. Let’s face it, we’ve all been there: waiting for a website to load, only to refresh it in frustration as if we’re living in the Stone Age. Or binge-watching an entire season of a show in one sitting, because why wait when “Next Episode” is so inviting? The issue is not just about wasting time—it’s about what we’re not learning in the process....
