Emily in Paris

  Bonjour, enchanté. If you love Paris and its fashion, then Emily in Paris is for you. The new Netflix series is a mixture of romance, friendship, comedy, self-discovery, and a lot of fashion. It is undoubtedly every girl’s desire to visit Paris once in their lifetime and be a part of the city’s incredible culture. Well, Emily in Paris helps you to fulfill this desire to a great extend virtually. Binge-watching the ten episodes will get you right in Emily’s apartment and be a silent viewer of her problems.

The Grendels

Horror is lurking behind every moment of darkness, Seeming to be human, we cannot distinguish you from Grendel. We see no Beowulfs coming to rip off your arms that aid you well. When every closed door warns us, Every stare seems to map our bodies, Every vehicle appears to follow us, Every touch seems to warn us, You, cultured and well behaved, You are the light of the day, You are the Lord of the people, Who metamorphose into damned dangers  At the end of the day. Your venomous fangs go in search of  Prey, You wait in the darkness with twinkling eyes, Admiring the power of your hands, That can open up hearts, And show the uncultured your worth.  After every hunting, the sycophants who surround you, Kiss your hands and touch your feet. They wash your dirt and make your bed. They cure your sickness by gifting you scepters. Making you invisible, they uproot every Beowulfs to ensure your reign. Thus you flourish, never to die but to hunt and haunt. And behind your house, we see a pile of d

General Madness

  I see General Madness cracking open, He oozes out as a pulp from a laceration, He flows down the streets to places and people unknown. He would crawl up new landings  and conquers them like he did to mine years ago. Some years back, he invaded my city of Head, Which was on the verge of destruction by the civil war, Between the groups of experiences and sorrows. When General Madness came, the two creepy groups united, made him their leader. For years I carried a nuclear explosion in my head. He was indifferent to the curves of my cursive letters, And produced scribbles of a toddler, sending out misinformation. He conducted minor explosions,  assuring the solidarity of other inmates of my Land. But most times, Capt. Heart from the left quarters was a rebel, He filed verbal and written complaints in vain. He persuaded the Lady Mouth  to utter things unknown and uncouth. She seemed an elegant lady outside, with a smile, she was confident of, Her son was Sir Gland who ran a liquid factory

Arrival : An Emotional Sci-fi

What will you do if you get to know your future in advance? Will you change it or will you live with it? But life is not always a bed of roses, there would be thorns in between. Most of us would try to amend or alter the unhappy events that are supposed to happen, provided we know our future. Even so, are you sure that things would change? What if the amendments that we make would eventually lead to an unhappy situation that was supposed to occur in the first place? It takes a lot of courage and perseverance to lead your life without making any alterations even when you know what is about to happen. This is what the movie Arrival tells us.  In the movie directed by Denis Villeneuve, the beautiful Amy Adams becomes the center of attention with her expressive eyes and exceptional acting.

No single soul requires an introduction for Leonardo Dicaprio. The man who succeeded in grabbing the attention of millions at a very young age. The man who was destined to be a renowned actor, who was able to take home many awards and accolades. So let's take a moment to appreciate the highly talented and handsome Leo. Undoubtedly he is one of the most excellent & exceptional actors in the world. He has a special capability to lure us into his charm through the portrayal of unconventional characters. He can also literally strangle our thoughts and emotions at the same time. The characters he portrays are not superheroes who can do anything, but simply ordinary people who are broken and are left to face fate. Leo specifically chooses edgy avant-garde characters in most of his films because it can always bring out the best in him. He not only presents a broken man's depression and hopelessness but also his inner turmoil very convincingly. Teddy, Dom, Glass, Billy, and Frank i
